A project to build a small strawbale studio for Kappy Laning's Breathwork practice. Also it will serve as lodging space for guests and a get away area for playing music. The philosophy is use recycled, donated and found materials where possible, keep it small and efficient and make it available for interested people to help and learn. We are near Bowie, MD on the outskirts of Washington, D.C. and love to have visitors.

We have taken a small detour to saw up some more boards for the roof and walls. The Pittman family has graciously allowed us to cut down some tulip poplar along the high tension right of way so we hauled the woodmizer over and have been making 2x6s and other boards that might be useful. Tulip poplar is a fairly soft, easy to cut wood that has a nice straight grain and few knots. The heart has a nice green tone. Here we can see Jenny operating the mill.
