Hi
I've got a few cement bags. They got some damp and have gone hard. What can I do with them? I'm hoping you great people can show me a way to make them useful. I'm hoping to build a wall. I don't want to have to throw away the bags.
Cheers :beer:

DDThe advice I give on here is based on my many years in the preservation industry. I choose to remain anonymous, I have no desire to get work from anyone. No one can give 100% accurate advice on a forum if I get it wrong you'll get a sincere apology and that's all:D

I would stick it on the compost pile, Everything else ends up there.
I crashed a radio controlled plane, I peeled the plastic coating off it and the rest went in the compost bin. Its not there anymore. Its rotted down.
One annoying thing that wont. The plastic windows on envelopes. They remain intact, Damn.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
