Hi Spaceman,
Thank you much for the info!
Are you going to fully enclose the dome?
Cheers,

Yes, pouring into forms works well - that's what I have been doing lately, even using lath as one side of the form as you plan to do.

Hi!

My wife and I are buying a house in serious need of renovation and
want to re-build at least the exterior walls of the house with
papercrete. Several questions have come up as we are planning our
construction: the first and main question we were contemplating is how
successful people been with simply pouring the papercrete slurry into
forms, thus eliminating the block forming and then building steps? We
envision expanded lath (?) forms and then pumping the slurry into the
forms.
If anyone has information on this, we would be grateful for any feedback.
Cheers,
Hoski and Teresa
