안녕하세요 정말행복해 보이네요 건축에쓰이는 건초이름알려주시면 감사하게습니다

You both are amazing for working together to build a wonderful home for your family. God Bless

Very good idea to cover the straw with a mesh before plastering! What kind of mesh is that? Will it not be affected by lime plaster?

With the rock under the hay bales, where would water drain if the bales were to get wet?

I'm confused about seeing multiple videos now of farmers calling this the Millers knot - I thought it's a knot for binding a sack or bag, and looks quite different. This looks like 2 half hitches with the 2nd one slipped. Either way, very nice!

Great work! How is it holding up?

Where are you guys now with the house? Would love to see an update!

I’m not sure what the large aggregate is for, and I’m puzzled as to just how you’re fixing the bales of straw together. As the usual method are to secure the bales to one another & then secure them to the base of the structure. If the aggregate is there for airflow, as it’s size might allow vermin to access the inside of the bales. As this would make an ideal home for them as well. If you were wanting to vermin proof the base , fine specific sized aggregate can be obtained. I’m sorry if I haven’t seen the bit where fix the bales to make a fit & proper structure, but unless it’s done correctly. It’s a waste of materials, money and time. Best of luck with your endeavours!

great job people! the only thing i dont like at all is the metal roofing,condensations and wather on bales is not an option guys,considere that for your sake.

If it's indoors, a pozzolanic or even just natural hot lime should work fine and would provide way more working time than an NHL mix. Might be worth harling first with a lime slurry to seal the straw and provide a scratch coat, but I've never done it so am just speculating. I've switched from NHL to hot lime for as much as possible although I know most people say you need an NHL for renders. I'm not convinced, so will be making a lot of mistakes in my cottage as I find out! 🤣

St Astier lime - that's about the best you can buy (in terms of free lime content). It's expensive enough to ship to Scotland, so must be _really_ expensive in the US! Loved the video - greetings from NE Scotland.

You did Awesome! I am so proud of you 👏. Knowing that this was a while ago I am sure you have done many more Wonderful things to your home 🏡. God Bless you all 😊

Very interesting! Since straw molds when it gets wet, how did you prevent it from molding since it was sprayed with the hose? Love how your family all works so hard together! Wonderful family values 😊

So interesting. Thank you so much for filming and documenting your journey. I would have loved it if in stead of music you shared more about what you were doing and why. Never mind, lol. I just went to your channel and saw this was a time lapse and all the detail is there. I am going to binge watch the rest. It is so encouraging to see what can be done. How long did this take you from start to finish?

I say watch out for the big bad wolf!

Can I ask what did you insulate the roof with? We're considering building!

Thank you. I have a feeling this is the most comprehensive on-line documentation of building a straw bale house available, even in 2024.

Why didn't you just stain the concrete floor ?

Hi! Where did you purchase your lime plaster?

Hello! I found your videos last night. I love what you did!! We are starting to build our homestead in Panama, and looking into earthen floors. Also love your shower! But we can't find any videos or info on what those floors are like years later! Could you give some info on that? 😊

How has it aged guys please ?

Good job! Great demeanors, too! Forgive me if I missed it but I assume you did the seams with a fiberglass mesh tape set in thin set mortar. Is that correct? At any rate, I'm wondering how it is all holding up. Any issues?

Good job. I would like to know more about the string knot you used for tying the mesh. It looked like once you pulled it tight, you were not tying it off? Does that knot self ty?

Can you explain why you poured rocks over the foam and then put straw bales on top?

Great work, so glad I got to see this version! I remember the birds building nests in the straw. Best of luck to you all moving forward. We are in the planning stages of our own straw bale home. Inspired by your efforts.

Ok it's installed well? What else?

i've been brushing up on useful knots. this is one of the best and easiest to tie. thanks for the beautiful demo.

Thank you for the update. You have built a wonderful home and an amazing family💕

Yay! So glad you guys are back! We'd love to see more on how you decorate/furnish your beautiful new home❤

Nice work love the kids input lol 👌🇨🇦

I have Loved watching your journey. Well done!!

Guys, if you're talking, you have to turn down the backing music. Nice house but I have little to no idea what you're saying.

❤

Hello You are an inspiration in how to build an house and how to "build" one family. Thank you for the inspiration. If you allowed me the question, is possible use you method changing the ciment by lime? Thanks Regrets from Portugal Diogo

Why wrap.over the bales? We did not do that with our strawbale home. Is that a county requirement where you are?

Seeing your kids helping out , playing around and loving on the pup, reminds me so much of my childhood. There was seven of us. Always busy helping and goofing off. Remember sleeping so hard back then. Life was good.

We just finished our Strawbale home in December it took us an entire year. We are so tire now starting on the front yard need to get a walkway so we can get final. We watched you thru your entire build great work guys.

Great to see you back. When we first started watching you our strawbale house in Scotland hadn’t even been sketched. In a few weeks we’ll have our planning permission. Be great to see a nice finished walkthrough in detail. Your channel is the best we’ve watched.

Good to see you back, and to see the end (?) results. Looking great, the kids seem to love it too, and love having had a hand in building it too. Great to see you have finally been able to move in to your great achievement. Greetings from sunny Perth, West Australia. [41°C here today] Cheers and Happy New Year, Frank.

It turned out great. Thanks for the update. Best of luck to you all. Enjoy the new memories.

Great to see a new video, we hope ya'll are doing well!

So nice to see a new video it's been a minute.

Thank you so much for the follow-up video! You have truly done an amazing job on your house. Have a wonderful New Year!

You guys have been gone so long😮

I was just in the middle of watching your latest video Time lapse Phase 2, and the video disappeared!😮 I hope everything is okay at your end and it was wonderful to see you back on youtube. I hope it's just a glitch and it will be back soon. I hope you and your family have a Happy New Year.

Thinking of building a strawbale home. Just found your videos and live them. Thank you for sharing your build. Blessings to you family and all those who helped you. ❣️🙏👏👏👏

I also saw a nice ice shack being used for rainshield. Love going to Devils lake . Great ice fishing. My gal and I wait all summer and fall for the ice to form , we prefer ice fishing to open water.

One day when I wished I lived near by instead of way over here in Wisconsin. Would've loved to have been able to help!

Full wheelbarrow kicked somebody's butt!!

You young folks are an inspiration to a lot of other couples, about how to work together. So nice to see!
