Aloha,

I have finally gotten a round tuit...and documented my ferrocement
building project in Hawai'i on my site. You can find 'page zero' here:

First rate, John. Thanks for reminding us about the value of ferrocement
in home and farm construction. Locally, I have seen some really impressive
structures
built out of ferrocement. Three questions:
1)Is it advisable to have a sprayer?
2)Do you use a concrete mixer or a cement (mortar) mixer to make the concrete?
3)Can you describe the aggregate used in the mix (i.e. what size stone)?

Tnx,
LL
