RE: [papercreters] Papercrete Plastering Lessons in New Mexico

Hi Mikey,

I hope you’re going to get it all on video.  I’ll buy a copy when you’re ready.

Did you mean covered with a ¼” of FC rather than papercrete?

What mortar mix will you be using?

Is your papercrete fully dry enough to mortar inside and out, and are you providing ventilation to the core?

Are you going to capture H2 & O2 from the batteries?

How are you planning to charge them and ?

If this is too far off topic please respond directly.

What about Mud Wrestling?
