Talk:CEB Press
there are some edits i was wanting to make to this page, is there a reason that it is locked? How are we to do a wiki redesign and categorization if pages are blocked?
We can use talk pages to suggest changes. Some pages are more sensitive than others. There may have been some vandalising. You might be a vandal 'cos you don't sign. ;-) LucasG 03:16, 29 October 2008 (PDT)

there is a line about hydraulic pressure, says 2000psi. should it be more like 545psi?
Soils used to make CEBs
Has testing been done on a variety of soils? Would it work with desert sand? Are there tests someone could do with the machine to see what the specifications are for the CEBs produced using the soils on their specific lot? I'm trying to help with documentation. --Howard V.

- i think the soil used has to have some percentage of clay content, so i think sand doesnt work, but i think maybe it could be added to a soil mix as filler maybe? im not sure on that. ose hasnt done much soil/brick testing but i think other people have done some, but not produced with an ose machine. --Dorkmo 01:17, 18 September 2011 (CEST)
