[Strawbale] corner detail problem

[John Swearingen]

I would agree, though I might fill the void with straw/clay, a bit stouter
substance than cellulose, so that mesh can be turned around the corner.
It's an opportunity for a fully rounded corner, too.

Has anyone suggested stopping the bales short of the corner, butting up 
against the steel posts?  Framing in the corner void, and filling it with 
rice hulls or cellulose insulation, might offer some pluses in ease of 
construction, stability, and simplicity.  While introducing some other 
challenges...
