davew Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 At the bottom of every bag there is dust, and fine chippings So what do you do with this dust, I been binning it for 30 years or more This week for fun, I added water and tried to make my own bricks, brilliant that worked really well amazed in fact, then just crumpled and useless So round to, blender (yes blender), dust add water to dry mix Mix with water in bowl, to tick paste like filler - brilliant much better - cant get out the mould, crimples Cling film bowl, same as before - BINGO nice bricks, any shape and size, I’m pleased. bit fragile and bit do crimple - trick is to really compact the dust, not that we can like a machine does On the BBQ burns fine, bit quick in truth, the heats there just not long ;lasting probable 25% the burn time of a bracket normally Not bad really for waste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chairmaker Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 You will need to add some starch as a binder. Cornstarch will do the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
