[AT] OT Concrete Slip Forms

[Ralph Goff]

I recall reading a similar method of building barn floors back in the 70s.
Called "Soil cement" it involved putting donwn sand, gravel and cement in
the area for the floor and then using a rototiller to mix it up. I haven't
heard any mention of it in years so probably was not too successful.
