Soffits and outdoor Lighting Begins for our Off-Grid Straw Bale House | Day 42

with the clerestory complete and the French doors installed, we still have a few more steps ahead of us in order to have the #strawbalehouse completely enclosed. The biggest of which is getting the gable ends of the house closed off. In this video we take the first step by beginning our soffits. Along the way, we make changes and and new features we previously had not considered.
