Removing The Arch Form

Removing a wooden form for the corbelled entryway to the Al Baydha Project's demonstration site.

this is really exciting to see and hear. these folks are really excited about their progress. this is so good for me to see it brings a tear to my eyes. I can only wish that this sort of thing were possible in the USA.

There's the potential that a small flood will run alongside part of the wall before we get the earth berm planted, so we wanted it really strong. Also, we didn't like the way it would have looked with all the extra buttressing had we only done one or two courses.

Great job.

Could you show the arch again in an update?

@@Factory051 it's in the most recent video--there's a picture of all of us standing on top of it.

Al Baydha project location: 21°03'05.44" N 39°54'10.87" E - it is extremely hard to find without these exact coordinates. You can follow the site's progress using Google Earth, and witness the transformation of what was a wasteland.

This reminds me of the old joke. How many men does it take to change a light bulb? So many 'experts'.
