[Strawbale] Jeff's recessed windows

[Jon Van Eck]

yeah,
i have often thought that it could be used between the foundation and the first course of straw as a waterproof membrane.

I would think that commercial roofers are bound to have "odds and
ends" of EPDM roofing membrane following commercial jobs that could be
had for very little. I suspect this would be very good to use as a
waterproof membrane. I am not sufficiently familiar with it to know if
it could be formed into a pan itself, but surely it would work to
protect the bales?
