She shows us the various simple tools and components of straw bale construction (wooden pins that anchor the bales to a base plate, baling twine, the base plate itself, top plates, mallets, baling needle, strapping, etc.).

  1. I’d be really interested to see this – we’re hoping to build a straw bale house. Currently we are pretty off-grid so rely on mobile dongle for internet and can’t watch video. Would there be any chance of getting a dvd cut of this? Be happy to pay a small fee. Kindest regards Kate
