Strawbale Building in Golden

The Roof and Porch!


It has been so long since much outdoor work has been done, when the weather cooperated Jeff and Eric went crazy. The were able to finish the roof and begin on the front porch. If you remember, we used SIP (structurally insulating panels) for the roof and covering them with standing metal seam.


There are many colors you can get in the metal, but we decided to use steel that will rust over time. This supports our hope that much of the house: the straw, the wall covering, the roof will just disintegrate over time. The roof will rust (and already is) to failure. Granted, this will take 30-40 years and in the meantime we'll have a roof and some paneling with this rich brownish color. Forgive me, if I've written this in a previous posting but it's important to us.

I am the kind of hombre who passions to seek different stuff. Presently I'm building my own photovoltaic panels. I am managing it all by myself without the assistance of my men. I'm utilizing the internet as the only way to acheive this. I discovered a truly awesome site that explains how to contruct pv panels and wind generators. The web site explains all the steps required to solar panel construction.

I am not exactly sure bout how accurate the data given there is. If some guys over here who had xp with these works can have a look and give your feedback in the site it would be grand and I'd really treasure it, cause I extremely passion solar panel construction.

Thanks for reading this. U people rock.
