Ever try it? I have some drying on the wood pile now. It is a PITA unless you have a good grinder to chew the paper up. How do you press it? just use 2 buckets that are the same. I used Home Depot buckets. Drill holes in the one where you are going to put the paper and put it inside the one that doesn't have holes. Fill the bucket with water. Let it sit for a couple days and churn it with a powerful drill. I have a long bit with an old bent circular saw blade welded to it. Once you are happy with the mix take the bucket out of the other and use a board to hold it above the bottom bucket to catch the water. When most of the water drains put the bucket with the water in the other bucket. Some people cut a piece of wood that is just slightly smaller than the diameter of the bucket but I just put the one in the other and the weight of the water holds it down. You can sit on the bucket or put bricks on it to weigh it down. I let it sit for a day like that and then let it dry for a while. Once it is relatively dry (another couple days) you can pull it out and set it on the wood pile (covered) and let it dry. |
