I was hoping to see the difference in terms of resistence.. not people's opinions of how they feel.. i just lost time

Another thing what they forget to mention is how the clay brick are made can determine how long it last. For instance if u make clay bricks using modern techniques than the clay brick will be brittle and weak against strong forces. While using traditional techniques makes the bricks last longer. Here is the modern method which makes clay bricks weak. 1, They leave the bricks out in the sun to dry up which makes the clay break down due to weather. 2, They use a brick squeezer which removes all the water from the brick making its bond weak. Traditional Brick making is better coz u cook the brick in an oven making the brick denser like when u make clay plates which are harder and stronger than silicon clay plates.

Clay brick is the number one choice for human stability and less disease less worm than all. Even food and coffee taste better with clay cup and chinet that's why Mason are famous not just by coincidence

Thanks Thomas

Wood easy had worm and insect , the concrete easily had bad asbestos, and heated treated clay stabilized the most as far as human health i hope

Strange how someone goes and does sth before your eyes and then shortly after tells you what he has just done...

[@FirstNameLastName-okayyoutube]

Yeah this comes across as a gimmicky advertisement not a intelligent breakdown of features

[@Kamara_Fuad]
