How to make baked roof tile and bricks

This nice, gives me insight on how to make an automated version for my own personal usage

[@buddyphelps9692]

i will never bitch about my job again, man these guy work

Watch primitive technology amazing videos up on his channel

Give blue collar work a try: you will love it! :)

[@buddyphelps9692]

i was a blue collar worker for over 45 years in industrial maintenance and had some very nasty jobs, but these guys do it every day, my hat is off to them.

[@stanleysiewierski]

Yes, it is hard work and definitely dismal wages but I look at these men and to me they are "artisans". If they could come here and ploy their wonderful craft, I would pay them a WAGE for being ARTISANS. They provide an art akin to pottery and deserve the compliment. Unfortunately criminals in their country and "here" benefit from their wonderful craft.

[@abundantYOUniverse]

That was really something thanks!

[@debbiramsey4603]

One of the things is to get as much grit and. Sticks and debris out of the stuff that you can, that stuff will cause the dry clay to be more l Likely to fracture in a crack. Noticed when he mashed the shape it didn't crack and split on him. Heating is patience, lots. Or a heat Source, the clay. Needs to dry evenly both sides, the gaps between the clay plates helps it dry more evenly both sides, different countries just lay the clay on these. And flip them in a few days.

Great video thank you for posting

[@railbuggy]

That was very interesting. Those are very efficient workers.

[@jamesmaseobrown]

That's interesting. I didn't know it took so much manual labor.

[@reynaldomamangun4810]

Lots of hardwork!

Where did you get that machine to make tile clay Donde consigio la maquina para hacer las tejas de barro

Hello, nice video and workers. Where did you record this? I mean country... someone might write this on comments idk.

How can i connect with these guys??

[@drbrycedavis]

Crazy! I have been there quite a few times. 100+ heat All day every day. They get paid nothing to do this type of work.

[@debbiramsey4603]

Other Indians some called the north people or the south people one or the other work the flexible clay in a wren that way to make even a Bowl.

[@ameehasa5504]

What is this type of clay ? I know the clay brown to red color can you explain to me what type of materials that you used in? Thank you

[@maxdecphoenix]

+Amee Hassa it's all the same clay, the color is just the effect of the level of temper impurities; typically an oxide of iron in the Americas. Most (non-Gulf) clays in mexico appear darker than North American clays, and, I'm no geologist but, i think this has to do with higher concentrations of volcanic basalt from the prevalence of fault/volcanoes. You about can't throw a stone and NOT hit a volcano along the Central American Volcanic Arc. Mexico alone has 43 known volcanoes. You see this darker sand/clay in volcanic regions like hawaii and Japan and all the islands in between. Some even have black sand beaches. Iwo Jima comes to mind. Regardless, it's basically the same clay because the fired color of this 'grey' clay is still red (due to the iron), just like the typical American 'red clay'. You can even see this in bricks. There's a brick factory tour with bob vila on here somewhere where the company (i think in Massachussets somewhere) collects grey clay and mixes it with grey sand and it still comes out red. Even fired Shale (which is white-grey-black) comes out red. it's just typical of earthenware clay.

[@seananderson7087]

+maxdecphoenix Do you by chance know what the dust material is that they are mixing in, and what it does? i'm thinking either a stone dust or sand.

[@maxdecphoenix]

+Sean Anderson I don't know *what* it is but it's most likely a pulvarized oxide, stone or previously baked ceramics deemed trash, or a mixture of all those things to increase the refractory level of the clay. Pure clay is to elastic to use, it shrinks too much when super-heated, making it prone to cracking/warping. Adding in refractives, which are just chemical compounds of various molecules whose atoms don't reorganize to a smaller or larger structure, OR do at a far higher temperature than the clay. These 'impurities' reduce shrinkage, cracking, or in some cases with super-heated ceramics, melting. This changes the properties or functions of the finished product. Firebrick, for instance, was historically made of a clay/cement mix with lots of organic matter, in pyrosis, the organic matter is burned away leaving voids in the bricks, These internal voids create and insulatory effect not shared by dense bricks/pavers made from the exact same clay. Ice, for instance floats because as it converts from liquid to frozen, its atomic structure reogranizes, which cause an increase in volume of around 10%, since the frozen compound has same mass, but now a greater volume than the liquid water around it. Thus a cubic foot of ice, is incrementally less heavy as a cubic foot of water, and the surrounding water is capable of supporting that difference. This is why the 'tip of the iceberg' is a thing, what meets the eye to the sailor is only about 10% of the actual volume of the iceberg. And it's cause just simple atomic response to temperature changes. Although, Ice doesn't become something other than water. Clay actually changes it's atomic count, an entirely different object, when it becomes ceramic.

[@seananderson7087]

maxdecphoenix Thanks a bunch for the response, very enlightening and helpful.

[@SpiritBear12]

It's similar to sprinkling flour on the table before you knead or roll out dough so the dough doesn't stick to the table. They put the dusty sand down first so the sticky wet clay doesn't stick to the surface under the brick mould. It makes it easier to get the brick off of the surface.

[@visionarystar8957]

yea here I thought life was hard

[@yusufusayd3151]

Where is this plant? I need some tiles for a build out in Bluefields Nicaragua. Do you have any contact information for these guys still...i know it was 2-3 years ago. thanks

[@ahmadrifki1]

I am from Indonesian, we make soka roof.

[@yusufusayd3151]

@@ahmadrifki1 what is soka roof

[@debbiramsey4603]

Some third world puts their clay in a huge vat anout hip high and enough to make the clad into a slurry, the grip is very soupy and the debris and grit falls, the get the very cared clay at that point. Hope u can read this. I don't see well.

[@st8kout961]

I thought it was going to be a DIY guide. Title should have been "How Clay Roof Tiles and Bricks are made."

[@debbiramsey4603]

If you are in a jam the ablility to make clay that won't crack to hold your water or seeds or such is extremely a Big bail out in trouble, Japanese master ceramic craftsmen work the. Clay till it reaches plasticity then it is ready to work, astonishing flexibility, theanastasia indians can use dry wall from a canyon.

Too bad the owners take no bride in the company. The place looks like a disaster.
