The First pour. 25 blocks to show touch feel and get aquainted with.

@Brian-Spooner Wow. A well documented first pour. A sector of the p-o-r-n industry is dedicated to v1rgins losing their, uh, virg1nity. It just never seems convincing for some reason - I always get the feeling that maybe they've actually done this before. But this is so real, and raw, and authentic. A work of art, within a work of art, within a work of art.

I agree with all the technical statements in your presentation, except for one. You mention that "it takes another 28 days to cure, after which the block is ready for it's place in the wall." While I totally agree that it take about 30 days for full cure, many would disagree with the notion of waiting until then before starting to build. It seems that blocks are plenty strong to build with after merely a day or two. However, the structure itself will not attain it's full strength until the full 30 day cure is complete.

@Brian-Spooner Good work, nice documentation.
What made you decide on that size block ?Too bad Zander had to put the p-o-r-n word in, that's liable to draw a lot of weird traffic.

@gemniii Ah yes Zander Porn The very flow of the wording is epic. He has in fact a good point You can Build before cure. Although I am a bit of a nervous nelson I appeal to the diversity gods to intervene. As it is I got some spearmenting to do with this first pour. There is the test of fire. The rumble strip. The wood cut and just about anything I can feesably invent or come up with. On the question as to why I chose this size of blockThe thickness is to give a bit of winter insulation and a tad more strength.
