Re: [papercreters] portland cement

You are getting OPC 8 bucks a 94 pound equal. Sounds like a pretty good deal to em if you can keep it dry and the hail off of it.
Where are you now?

I set up a ramp and rolled the drums off the back of the pickup. I had a friend there and we were able to set the drums up pretty easily. Perhaps the 45% fly ash made the mixture lighter? It works very well in papercrete.

If it is easy for you to move 1 ton of cement in drums that is a good deal. It would cost me $224 before tax for that much cement. I pay $11.19 per bag of Portland.

I read that everyone uses or seems to use bag cement. I checked here 
with the batch plant and they will sell to me in bulk (4--55gal drums) 
for $140.00 a ton. Just checking to see what folks use?
Thanks for any replys.
