Greetings,
My friend is doing one, that is if he ever gets healthy again, he is
78. He is an old hermit and jealous of his privacy, but he has been
building with papercrete for over 10 years. A few months ago I did send
the list his recipe that is standing up to our climate [the gulf coast]
with no covering on it at all. I got him started on it way back when
the first magazine for papercrete came out. He has sandy soil so he
went with papercrete. I have heavy clay so I went to fidobe, as Mike
McCain named it.
There may be others in Texas doing vaults. I don't know.
Bright Blessings,
Kim
