Been a carpenter for 18 years, now. Limited knowledge of straw bale, but a mate of mine's got a good book (some Californio) - which is how we do most of our learning in this DIY country of ours. Put us in touch with this dude and we'll let him/her read our book :) Seriously, we'll help where we can - the Earth is getting tired of shitting bricks! Hi there. Been a carpenter for 18 years, now.
