Re: [papercreters] tow mixer locked



I really hope you removed the brakes from you axle.
If they are in there it is easy for them to lock it all up.

It may have locked up because of lack of fluid in the diffy, a chipped tooth on a gear that locked the gears bad hub bearings no grease in them also either way it should be opened up and inspected there are many many things that can lock up a empty mixer.

You may have PC in the diffy if your recipe has had cement in it most likely your going to have to take the diffy apart and clean it out .We have had to do that few times in the last 10 years.

Tow mixers have a tendency to leak water into the differential, and that emulsifies with the oil inside. You can get rust on the gears and bearings.

You can flip it over and remove the cover from the differential to see what's going on inside. You might be able to carefully apply leverage to the gears and break it loose but remember that those gears are really hard steel and fairly brittle because of that, so don't bang on them!

[papercreters] Re: So where is one allowed to use paercrete?



FEMA has nothing to do with your question. If you have county/city codes outstanding in your locale then they are dominant. Without the requisite permit you are building a illegal structure in their eyes. Second the codes usually specify `graded` materials that meet things like WPA, ASTM, UL requirements for use.

[papercreters] So where is one allowed to use paercrete?



      First off let me introduce myself my name is Lou I reside in the high desert of Arizona real close to Arcosanti. I've have an interest in papercrete for some time now but am concerned as to what codes allow and don't. I realize this question wold primarily with local building codes allowed or disallowed in accordance with what was lobbied by big construction companies ...it's all about the profit. 


I've also heard that FEMA allows the use in area where local codes do not, if it is designated for use as safe room/house/bomb shelter..ect.   verifying this has been difficult.     Look forward to meeting people of the same interests.
