Strawbale house

This is the log of my experience building my straw bale home. I am told the pictures do not do the actual finished product justice, however, I am pleased to share it with all who are interested on this site. The trials and tribulations in getting the permit could have brought the project to an abrupt halt, but I knew in my heart that this was something I was meant to do and giving in or quiting was never an option. Enjoy........ and feel free to share with your friends!

Installing top plate for bales.

Top sill plate is being installed now, ready for the bales.
Parging the final part of the foundation, oh my, it is like a quagmire right now! Good job I don't have a basement. At least the drainage system is working (believe it or not). It is running in as quickly as it is being drained away!
Here you can see the ledge where the bales will sit. Posted by Picasa
