Hello Fellow Steemians!
I have a new update for the trailer project building forms that will be used to create an aircrete hexayurt.
I started by laying out a 2x3" board to use for the outside form of an 11/32" plywood.
I cut the length of the 2x3" board to 8'&6".
I used 2.5" deck screws to fasten the frame to the plywood.
I used a framing square to get my board to an approximate squareness.
I fastened the board with one screw initially to ensure my square.
I cut this middle board to 3'10".
Using a chalk line I drew a diagonal on another 11/32" piece of plywood.
Using my jigsaw i cut along the diagonal line.
This will create the roof section of the mold.
Here is the layout for the roof section of the mold. I attached the 2x3" boards to the plywood about 1/4" inward from the edge of the plywood.
I used some 6mil plastic to place over top of the mold which will act as a release for the aircrete after its cured.
Here is the layout before the aircrete has been poured.
Thank you for your time if you gave this a read!
Yours in liberty toward a brighter future, may the great creator bring peace and joy within your hearts, Greg @makinstuff
