Mahikeng notes on machines & equipment
Small block yards with an egg-laying machine and a slab serve many villages around Mahikeng. Since power is unreliable on some plots, ask about diesel or petrol machines and manual presses. Interlocking brick presses using local soil also interest some builders. Ask the supplier about output with your mould and crew, spares, and the cost of trucking the machine out.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Mahikeng
As the provincial capital, Mahikeng mixes government offices and staff housing with fast-growing villages on every side. Mmabatho suburbs see extensions and boundary walls, while Montshiwa, Lomanyaneng and the surrounding villages build family homes in cement blocks, often a room at a time. Small brick yards with egg-laying machines are found in many villages, selling blocks straight off the slab. Bigger orders, face bricks and machines often travel long distances from Rustenburg, Lichtenburg or Gauteng, so delivery cost is a real part of the quote. The Kalahari edge brings hot, dry summers that dry fresh bricks fast, and cold winter nights with frost. Sand is mostly from local pits.

- Homeowners: making bricks yourself for a backyard room, boundary wall or outside toilet
