  • It was a beautiful weekend end of November in North Dakota (yes we are a month behind on editing videos, I hope to catch up soon!) We wanted to take advantage of the weather and use the mortar mixer outside while we can. We did our first coat on our garage walls which are 24' in length. We had 2 windows and 1 door to work around, which wasn't so easy but this was our first go at it and now we have a much better grasp at it all! This ended up taking 2 whole days of prepping and plastering but well worth it. Thank you for supporting us and following along with our build!

    I have been watching many videos of construction of log cabins, Pol barns, and such types. But you guys are using unusual materials and totally different method of construction.EIntresting and exiting to watch. You guys are working hard. Happy to see kids also participating in the project and enjoying the activities. Stay blessed.

    Wow, I'm impressed! You can get Andrew Morrison on the phone for help. Just kidding 😉 Yvonne loves the shape of your house, and I really like watching the kids get in there and help. Makes us smile. This home is going to be amazing. Great job!

      hahaha! He is a great guy. thank you so much.. Question for you, random topic here but do you plan to use any sort of vapor retarder on your ceiling? vapor barrier (poly) is definitely a no go for us but are really stumped on what to do otherwise, if anything.

    I just stumbled on this build and it brought back a ton of memories of the Straw bale house we built for my business partners parents. We used St Astiers Lime Plaster shot through a Gunite machine, we then finished the inside coat with American Clay and did a high polish finish, the look and feel of that house was so grounding. Thank you for the memories and great work :)

      The second coat (brown coat) which has a little more sand than the first coat. Then the final coat is a premixed lime (ecomortar). We are not adding any pigment to this mix which will result in a soft white (is what im told ) and it is only 1/8'' thick.

    I love the style of this house! It's absolutely beautiful! Someday, I too hope to build a strawbale home. I'd love to see a recap once you're done, stating mistakes you realize you made & would do differently if you had the chance; as well as things that went great & you'd recommend.

    Ay up, I heard you mention the reason you chose 5 over 3.5. But curious as to whether there was a reason you chose NHL over a non-hydraulic lime?

      @@ericwilson8848 A dry, powder, hydrate (calcium hydroxide) is chemically reactive with water vapor in the atmosphere, so if not kept in airtight storage it can react back to calcium carbonate and become inert. Therefore, "fresh" powdered hydrate (e.g. 6 months old or newer?) is better.
      Once slaked into a putty if it is covered with a layer of water to keep air from reaching the putty then it can be stored indefinitely. My understanding is that it can even freeze/thaw and still be fine.

    in the south west.... we have wall rot with straw bail walls. its truely a terrible building system.
    excellent roof (hat) excellent boots (foundation) the house has plenty of roof over hang so there is zero splash but this system is just so bad. I hope you know what your getting into.
    fyi a better system would be ceb - compressed earth blocks with high cement content. the goal is not to have organic material in the walls and this even includes wood
