[papercreters] Hi, I just want to ask if I understand it right

Hi
I just want to ask if I understand it right how to make desired mount of papercrete with density I want

For example if I want 1 m3 (35 cu ft) of pc with density 650 kg/m3 (40.5 lb/ft3)
I'll take 1m3 of water and put into it 650kg of ingredients - dry weight (like 470kg of paper, 120kg of cement and 60kg lime)
And if I want pc with density for example 350 kg/m3 I just put less ingredients into same amount of water, maybe with little recipe adjustment.

Is my idea of it right?
So the density of a final product is controlled by density of paper slurry I'll make and then add other ingredients by weight ratio of dry paper.
