[papercreters] Re: Domes and spraying papercrete / tilt up construction

Thanks for your replies, Spaceman and Mikey. I am getting a better
picture of all that is involved. Sounds like spraying a
thicker/larger dome is not a good idea, but having a sprayer to put
the final coat/stucco on projects will be important.

For larger projects, it sounds like casting on the ground would be
easier.

Any experience casting large panels (like 8' or 10' x 20') and tilt up
construction? If one could cast an entire wall on the ground, with
doors and windows framed in, this could save a lot of time and energy.
Would need a loader/lift to pick it up, and some way of attaching the
panels to the footer and perhaps a beam or something on top... Would
love to hear if others have any experience with this.
