    building with compressed earth blocks?

    Yes, you will need a foundation, as the walls are solid (no cavities) and thus heavy. You can through a thick raft foundation which will be easier, as you can shutter it between the steel frame, but it will eat concrete, and cost a lot more.

    building with compressed earth blocks?

    Hey Serf, I was lucky, I got my Finnbuilder second hand. I've used it a lot, from building workshops to stores to swimming pools. Retaining walls too. You can adjust the thickness of the walls by changing plates. Its quick, easy and cheap, and requires no major skills, as longs as the first row...

    Wanted KTM 300 Project Bike

    I'm looking for a KTM/Husky/Husaberg 300 in need of a little TLC as a project to build up. Preferably in the Western Cape. Ideally a 2011 Husaberg TE300.

    Thanks Grunder, I saw that one. It's a little far though. My mate is close to Grahamstown.

    Wanted TW200 - Engine

    Yip, I can understand this. I unwittingly sold a polished turd I owned for a short period to someone recently. I feel awful about it.

    Wanted CRF 230

    True. I've bought many CRF and TTR 230's over the years as farm bikes for way less than R20K, but lately, people expect silly prices for them. I suppose it's because there is nothing new that fills that niche.

    I remember perving over this bike when I picked up those molds from you. If my life wasn't so upside down right now, I'd be driving through to collect it right now. I hope she finds a good home.

    Gas Gas 300 EC 2006 rebuild

    I had a 2013 GG 300. It was a nice bike, but your model, and the "twin tube" model that came after it it were actually better. The 2013 and up until KTM took over were very heavy for a 300. That's a nice bike you have there. Back in the day, I used to get all my spares from Rock Garden, but I...
