At the risk of giving away an idea for shop flooring I present this question to the list... What if some was to get their hands on a large quanities of used tires, removed the steel bead and the some

This concept is used in children's playgrounds all the time. The process uses a resin and shredded tires. The most used resin is made by DOW and you can get info about it at: http://www.dow.com/pusy

You might find this interesting: http://www.psrc.usm.edu/macrog/xlink.htm I think you may have a lot of chemistry and inventing ahead of you, before you work on the business plan. Otherwise, it's lik

Large quantities of used tires wouldn't be a problem, chipping or shredding them would be possible, but melting them would be the problem. Vulcanized rubber won't melt and then reset. They are, unfor

<Eric@megageek.com> asks: can I shred tires, melt 'em, and pour it out as a garage floor? The shredding should be easy; they sell chipped tires for use as a resilient surface for playgrounds. And I r

On a perhaps similar note, one thing that I came across a year or two ago in one of the car mags that finds its way to the house was that the machines for spraying Rhino Liners or Line-X are portable

...I don't know all the products by name, but at least some of those products are flammable. It's been a problem for children's playgrounds, because of vandalism. It's very expensive and has had to b

Might be, but as someone already said, you sure don't want to be welding over it. I'd be surprised if a wood chipper would do it ... although I've never tried a chipper I have tried other things tha

Not as easy as it seems. It wasn't until recently shredding tires was economically feasible, or for that matter doable at all. Most tires contain steel cables, not an easy thing to shred. For the la

The best uses I've seen for old tires include the rubberized asphalt that they're putting down throughout the metro Phoenix area freeways, it's really quiet to drive on. For home user technology I'v

Yea, I guess those little kids on the playground kept causing fires when they tried to snuff out their cigarettes.
