[papercreters] Re: Additives

I start off with 3 gals wet shredded paper, then add 1 gal portland
cement, mix that until there is no paper visible, then add 2 sand or 2
clay or 1 of each. Sometimes I add paint if the location calls for it.

aggregate and one of cement - then add newspaper fiber - For instance,
in one yard of material (27 cubic feet ) Half the mix would be fiber
(approx. 80 pounds ) the other half would be  about 12 cubic feet of
sand, perlite, or pumice, does not matter which, filled with 3 cubic
feet of cements. Cements should be adjusted with 10 to 20 percent of
pozzolonic material for the fastest cure and to get rid of the excess
water that is held by the excess of unreacted calcium hydroxide in the
cement - More later- ask questions _ Clyde T Curry
