There is no way this can be effective. To see how compact your tires are compared to sledged tires I could put money on our foundation outlasting this contraption. Good idea and good try but tires must be packed in place to get the locking effect as the tire bulges during packing. Even better would be a air hammer. I couldn't imagine the need to lift each tire in place.......I already have a bad back.

2009 vids and no working website yet..moving on great idea but no follow through.

[lizafree1]

I am very curious to find out more about you and your equipment. Your website is not up....I am in Vancouver. where do I contact you?

I prefer the shovel and sledge hammer method.

Spring is coming. I'll make a new video before May 1st. I'll do two tires by laying down the tires with cardboard in the bottom, then

+ use Tire Spreader on both tires

+ shovel more dirt into both tires

+ use Tire Tamper on both tires

+ shovel more dirt to top up the tire

+ compact and level tire with hand tamping plate

= less than 10 minute video

I'm trying to raise money to hire an engineer to make machines even better and get it down to 4 minutes per tire averaged over 700 tires.

[gypsum20]

1 man - 5 minutes per tire? You're a liar. 700 tires - 58 hours? Not with that system. Can you make a vid of you going along a wall section & without stopping the cam do all that & be ready & moved to the next tire in 5 minute?(1 man) You lose credibility by exagerating.

[TirewallCorp]

@gypsum20 The five minutes per tire (58 hours per 700 tires) includes:

- laying down a row of tires with cardboard in the bottom

- use Tire Spreader to partially fill ALL the tires in the row (1 man shovels, 1 man operates machine), then

- shovel more dirt into the center portion of the tires

- hook up the Tire Tamper and do ALL the tires in the row

- add more dirt to fill the holes that are in the shape of the tamping plate and compact added dirt with hand tamping plate.

Repeat process

So did you ever get your earthship finished? Seams like it would have taken forever setting these machines up for each individual tire. I'm still envious. Were waiting to buy land.

[TirewallCorp]

@8126295974 I'm using warehouse shelving on wheels and the electric winch as a gantry to move the Tire Tamper from one tire to the next. It's easy, just lift the Tire Tamper with the winch, move the whole thing on wheels to the next tire and then lower the Tire Tamper. It takes about 1 min/tire for Tire Spreader + 3 min/tire with Tire Tamper + 1 min/tire for moving warehouse shelving = 5 min/tire... 5 min/tire X 700 tires = 3500 min (58 hours) And, that's with one person.

Well at minimum you get an A+ for ingenious machinery.

[zzaaak]

Looks good, now you just need to figure out how to get it on autopilot.

[nethermonkey]

Even with use of these technologies, there is still the need to complete the job by hand.

These technologies require an immense amount of energy to create, let alone run. Simply loading and unloading these machines and setting up the winch requires a great amount of man power. ...

Great idea saves so much on landfill etc' nice one..!!
