In response to your post about the need for more imput may I share mine?
Have been a member for a while, dont remember if this is the first post but was attracted to the possibility of building a home for low cost.
As i have read over the years(or glanced over) I noticed a trend that to make papercrete one must be locked in to a certain method,ie building a trailer with paddles and that seemed to be it.
While not being afraid of hardwork somehow the idea of going to all that trouble just dosent seem effective there has to be a better way.
The other negatives Ive had with the concept is I want a home that looks normal. Not interested into some new age earthship hocus pocus dope smoking glass bottle corncob strawbale out of this world look.
I just want a home that the bankers will fiance,can sell if I need to, or wont drag down my neighbors value by building a home. Like it or not in today's society we are bonded together by regulations that keeps us in lockstep with others .
To be honest I havent tried any experiments as of yet but will now that Iam retired. Iam however thankful for those who have and posted their findings. It is because of their findings I can grasp the concept and may be push the concept further down the road.
Please dont take this post as a critical post, but one of a thankful view.
