HOPE’S BRILLIANT BRICK-MAKING MACHINE

With a building to build, a permanent home for the kids and Mama Mayila’s Cradle, we’re going to need plenty bricks! And to keep costs down we want to make our own bricks building on our experience making bricks for our store and bakery. And we want to use hydra-form bricks, an innovative brick that interlocks reducing the amount of cement by 80% and makes for a super-strong building.

So our trusty builder, Alpha, investigates, enquiring of several artisan metal workers and manufacturers. Settling on H.A.M. Mechanical Services, who’s reputation for servicing and after-care is second to none, we get to see the final finishing of a prototype hydra-form brick making machine, fine-tuning and oiling the mechanism of this fine machine.

Made of a heavier gauge steel than competitors, recycled from truck chassis, it needs to be as we see a demonstration manually compressing clay into a brick with brilliant results. We can't wait to ake delivery of our finished hydraform brick-making machine!
