Here's how we're doing it on our current job. Only thing is, I should've bought stock in a band-aid company. That flippin' steel is sharp.

Hey, Tom, why is all your Tyvek upside down? I was under the impression that the technology behind Tyvek requires that it all be installed rightside up and horizontal no matter what because it will leak otherwise... ?

They thought it would weigh just over 175tons, but it ended up being more than they thought. I haven't heard what the final weight was. They had to bring in the new big yellow axle's.

The edges are built into the form, however one of our most popular has chipped edges that can be done by hand after you pop the forms. We discovered this on accident, actually. We were taking a piece to KBIZ a few years ago and took off a form while the mix was still a bit green. When it chipped, we just chizzled the rest of the edges so it looked like it was on purpose. It KILLED at the show. Those are little shells. We can embed anything obviously and we also CNC stamps to put logos into things.


Appreciate the compliment...
