Re: [papercreters] Hello Everyone

Mikey ,

I enjoyed the video. Do you think adding more cement would make it better for screwing the panels together ?

I've done 4' x 8' panels 4" thick as well as 6' x 6' panels. My mix
was not rich enough with cement, sand, lime to simple screw them
together. I used salt cedar for reinforcement and 25 gauge metal
framing studs to encase the panels after casting for additional
rigidity.

The biggest draw backs two panels for me were:

1. Time to dry

2. Two people required for tilt-up and placement of panels

3. Cost of screws used to hold metal framing studs to panels.
