At first I was saying, "Damn, what a flammable building this guy is constructing." haha then I realized that you added mortar and cement. Nice job. I wasn't expecting this.
-
I'm wondering if the straw loses the cut hay smell and if it decomposes at much slower rate or if at all when it's encompassed in the cement? What type of coating or covering is being used on the inner walls, if any?

more to the point ....how much was the cost?

Interesting, but shitty muzak.

love the music, great video man...

You do this to keep water and moister from getting at the straw. You want to keep the straw as dry as you can get.
Great job on the garage.

What kind of plaster did you use for the walls?
NovusChaoMundi 1 year ago
Our render was 6 parts course sand, 3 parts fat sand, 3 parts lime and 1 part cement.

@pipshy Is it difficult to get a nice smooth plastered wall? That's incredibly how little cement it uses!

Well, it all depends how you want it. Our surface is smooth and that wasn't too hard: after finishing with the trowel we rubbed it by hand to get a smooth finish. You could also use a sponge. When it came to getting it straight, that was a bit tricker in that our bales were not as tight as we would have wanted. But we are very happy with an "organic" wall that is not straight at all !
