Ms. Charmaine Taylor/ Taylor Publishing http://www.dirtcheapbuilder.com http://www.papercrete.com PO Box 375, Cutten (Eureka) CA 95534 707-441-1632 Here is an email sent me by Nolan ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Subject: Re: mortar sprayer web site Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2002 09:14:59 -0700 From: "Nolan Scheid" <nolan at clipper.net> To: "Charmaine R Taylor" <tms at northcoast.com> Hello Charmaine, Good to here back from you. We have been a bit tied up with a new baby girl. All is well and everyone is happy. I have been importing the sprayers for a couple of years from Mexico. I bought the first one about 3 years ago and used it to spray a thin shell of mortar on my room sized balloon forms. I loved everything except the price. I paid $600 for the first one because I couldn't find it anywhere else. It changed my life for air formed structures. This is the only tool that allows the normal guy to do small scale shotcreteing without buying a concrete pump and large equipment. I decided that my small part to contribute to the alternative building community would be to import the sprayers and sell them at an affordable price. That way more people could have such a useful tool and everyone will benefit. I have been selling the sprayers for $220 with shipping in the US. They weight about 8 pounds empty. I do plan on making the website better. A friend helped put it up and I see that it does need help. I also have a similar model with reshaped handle and hopper that is designed to spray up to ceilings. Clay would be fun to try. I know that many people have been using them for spraying the lime coat on straw bales. I use them with sand and cement. One of the features that works great is the 4 spray holes instead of 1. That allows a person to spray a foot wide pattern. This may not be the best tool to rent. There are 4 small air jets that must be cleaned with an included cleaning rod. If a person takes good care of their tools this is no problem. I'm not sure that a renter would pay enough attention to that detail. My hope is that as more people are using these, they will share what they have learned so that others can follow and learn.
