it is difficult to use for that application. if you are considering purchasing one, come see it in action and make a decision. It can twist wires, but the pulling action required to spin the mechanism to simultaneously twist the wires requires a lot of energy..... it jus easier to twist the wires rather than go thru all that.

2200 Sq ft is easily over $500k just for the shell and you doing a lot of the work yourself. Why not spend the money for plans a decent design?

Update.

So my house has 18 posts. I took 72 lengths of 5/8" steel and bent 16 inches at the end (To tie into the Mat)

Did you buy the ties to use with it?

[nos_specialist]

Nah i saw how they were using binding wire and looping it.... i could try the ties.. but... i feel i rocking it ole school yes

[rspann]

Loop ties is the only thing that will work with it. We had a man tying while foundation casting, build a massive wall in three days. Nightcrawler could tell you about that wall.https://hw.menardc.com/main/items/media ... 831197.jpg

[nos_specialist]

where can i get them locally? or is it only an import item?

[rspann]

On amazon ,5000 is around $80, and 1000 is $12.50. There are many suppliers. Look for rebar loop ties. Tool time in Aranguez have them too. That's where I use to buy when I run out.

[rspann]

Using that tool without the loop ties is like putting dinner mints in a gun and trying to shoot somebody with it.

[nos_specialist]

Progress made all 18 posts tied out




Next move is to tie out piles

[pugboy]

Hey guys,

looking for 15ft long aluzinc, about 5 sheets delivered in woodbrook.

Any suggestions for supplier ?
Many of them have to order and it is a unreliable wait etc.

[rspann]

If you buy from Varma,free delivery next day. Tell the bosslady Spann sent you, you might even get to pay on delivery like I do.
