betabro Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Don't underestimate the benefits of learning to turn tight. The Cloverleaf is a great exercise. Bring the marks in and put it on a slope as you get better. Hope this gives you a few easy ideas. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copemech Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Huuummmmm! I kind of like that idea of a retaining wall of tires! You see, I need a retainer on my back slope, get all the old tires I want! Need dirt! Would I need to level it first, or will it do it's own levelling? As the tires set in?

betabro Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 You only have to level under the tires. Slope it slightly back into the slope. Select tires of a similar size. Put a few stakes down through the wall for extra support and you can also tie-wire the tires together. Pack each level tight into the edges of the tires to keep it even. The dirt fill brings it up to level. This terrace took 11m of packing sand. Heaps cheaper than any other terrace wall. The coach bolts in a conventional wall were going to cost the same as all the fill and a retaining wall still needs infill. I got the idea from Earthship buiders in America. Plus it re-uses a wasted resource. Cheers Kem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
