Learn to use traditional Lime Plaster on Strawbale walls. 17th and 18th October, Orgiva, Spain. Romany and John Buck are hosting a 2-day course to be run by Barbara Jones and Bee Rowan of Amazon Nails. The internal walls of Romany's beautiful, circular, loadbearing straw house (previously built with the help of Jolien van der Madden) will be plastered, and in these 2 days you will learn about different types of lime, how to make renders and plasters, and how to use lime render on straw. You will also have a lot of fun, good food and great company! Barbara and Bee have extensive practical knowledge of lime plastering and strawbale building from their many builds with straw in the UK and Ireland over the last few years,(see their website at www.strawbalefutures.org.uk) and are honoured to be working in Spain for the first time. Delicious local (and part organic) vegetarian food will be provided as part of the course fee, and the course will start with an evening meal on Thursday October 16th. Actual training days are Friday and Saturday the 17th and 18th October, and the course will end with breakfast on Sunday morning the 19th October. Cost for the course is 100 euros including all food and free camping.
