          Is there a metric calculator available? These American measuring units are very confusing.

            @Kwagga 42 KG of cement makes .17 cubic meter of AirCrete.

            There is some data required to make a metric version:

            What price & volume of foaming agent is used there.
            Weight & price of Portland cement bags.
            Dimension and cost of soft poly reinforcing fabric.

                @Kwagga I just use online conversion calculators. Just Google "inch to meter" or what ever units are involved.

                        There are also other almost identical foaming agents available at local farm stores.
                        They are used for "row marking" where the tractor squirts droplets of foam so they can mark where they went.
