@recoveringacademic do you fill as you go with that system then or is there a point at which you get a man and a pump and fill the lot ..??

 

As you go, gently gently. Very unwise to fill the lot at once although people do do it. The concrete pumps costs a fair bit...

Erm, no not EPS.

 

Here's too much detail

Briefly, here's the point: the blocks are wooden chips with the sugars and protein kicked out of them, dried and then embedded in a cementitious mixture, lightly fried for a bit and then bashed into shape. Ram a bit of EPS or PU into the corners and you have yourself a very well insulated (fire-proof) block. Light, easily stacked and cheap.

 

The first sentence reads likes a fast food menu

@recoveringacademic

That's looking really great Ian!

Thanks.

It would be good if we could finish the job off: but due to an avoidable error (I could thump my stump - and I have two available) we, that means me, needs to shoot down to Wales (Crumlin,  Gwent) to pick up some more blocks.

 

@Nickfromwales, how far is to your gaff (from Crumlin)? Chance of a cuppa?

PM me.

 

Anyone need a load shifting down the M6, M5 corridor, from Lancaster to Gwent M/T? Got a Merc Shifter going  down in the next few days.
