There hasn't been any dramatic progress this week, buy it's nice that almost all the light straw clay infill has been completed. There is just a little more work to do to fill in the quarter-rounds around the windows and then it's on to the adobe floor.
West wall: the only thing left are the quarter rounds at the door and the little panels above the rough opening.
This shows the mold I made my cutting out a section of 12" sonotube and screwing it on to 1x4 poplar boards. The poplar gets screwed onto the framing and it is filled from the outside.
Not the clearest shot, but it shows how the plywood form is screwed onto the framing at a diagonal and filled from the outside. The 1x3 diagonal bracing is muddying this particular shot.
Shot showing both quarter rounds in place. I can't wait to see what it looks like with plaster on the rounded parts!
