Prepping For Plaster For Our #Off-Grid #Strawbalehouse
This is it! We are finally starting the earthen plaster of our #strawbalehouse. But first a few minor details must be attended to. Installation of outdoor recepticals and boxes for sconces as well as making sure we have adequate supplies available so that once we begin, we can work through until completion of an entire wall/side of the building. That means straw clay and native soil needs to be prepped. I also take a trip to Tucson to acquire some #Natural Hydraulic Lime plaster. We're going to experiment with it and see if we will use it in lieu of Portland cement.
As always, we thank you all for watching, liking our videos and subscribing to our channel. If you know anyone who might be interested in what we are doing, please let them know about our channel. Thanks!
