This is going to get my a bungle point, but that is a great video :lol:

Anyway Sammmm, look forward to pics of progress, I'm very interested to see how a cast concrete building from home made moulds turns out :)

I have always wanted to have a go at buildings but never got round to it. I will say that some kind of reinforcement is needed as i tried a tunnel mouth and as soon as i moved it out the mould it broke
