Re: [papercreters] Re: Hello. Introduction, and couple of questions.

One thing you will notice is how all of a sudden they get dry and hard. Dont worry about keeping these moist to "cure " them. Dis aint you daddys concrete. Un-mold them as soon as they firm up. 20-30 minutes. Depending on where you are in Texas you should be able to edge them within 2-3 hours. Standing them on the edge gives more surface area for drying. Just like that heavy stuff made of mud. Dont call it what it is as they think their farts dont entertain deaf people.

Still monitering the test pieces I made. Both the ones let dry and the
ones I'm keeping moist are doing good. The dry ones are finally
starting to get some stiffness to them, drying is taking a long time
due to the very high humidity here in Texas. I'm still not sure if any
of it is going to be strong enough for uses I've had in mind, but
something someway will definatly come out of it. I'm planning on
making a larger batch in the coming week and trying some more
experiments. I made up a batch of foamcrete yesterday (closed sell
foam, cement, and sand) just for kicks, heard of people talking about
it also, but papercrete is more fun to work with.
