True, the use of compressed earth bricks is not a new idea. True, the press has been made at a fraction of the cost. But, who has made the compressed earth brick press to make bricks that don’t need mortar and press at 300 tons? Meco’concept has done this and it is appreciated that this article has been posted. Many thanks to inhabitat!

There is an open source version of this on the web. Google: open source compressed earth brick press. It can be created with ease and at a fraction of the cost.

Not a new idea. See the Cinva Ram, still made by Fernco. If I recall, it was cited in the Whole Earth Catalog back in the 1960s.
