| rock shell | cardboard form | lime stickyness | stick testing |
| stonemakers | doing pretty much normal concrete | never use a plywood form | never pour in something | keeping all a work of sculpting | do not use cardboard | all thick wall | no thin shell | off the shelf rebar enforcement |
| building a cage from rebar | pull chicken wire over it | plaster it | that is pretty much what was touted out as “ferrocement construction” | forming a spherical shape from a flat rebar matt |
| wilfried ellmer | light shell | floating rock | very light | very tough you can play football with it | you can drive a screw into it | it will not suck up water for decades | it is a study what you can do in light building with Termite-Tech™ |
Thanks for the videos and general info, I am following.
Interesting concepts, artistic and no precision involved of course, but I am beginning to see what you suggest. A gradual process of adding material to a fixed framework, sculpting vs. traditional molding/casting.
