North West notes on machines & equipment
Small yards in Mogwase, Letlhabile and Ikageng often start with a manual or egg-laying machine on a home slab. Machine sellers and workshops in Rustenburg, Brits and Klerksdorp stock moulds, mixers and vibrator motors. Where village power is unreliable, an engine driven machine saves days lost to outages, and a covered slab helps in the dry winds of the western districts.
North West: the building, the weather and the yards
Platinum money and village self-build drive most brick orders in North West. Along the mining belt from Rustenburg to Brits and Mooinooi, rental rooms, mine housing and new extensions take cement bricks by the truckload. The villages of Bojanala, from Mogwase and Ledig to Madibeng, build family homes in stages, so block yards there sell a few hundred bricks at a time as often as a full load. Potchefstroom, Klerksdorp and Mahikeng have older suburbs in face brick and new housing on their edges, while Lichtenburg and Vryburg serve maize and cattle farms. Dry heat cures cement bricks too fast if they are not kept damp, and the plains get sharp winter frost.
The requests we see from North West usually come from:
- Homeowners: a cheap used press for making bricks for one building project at home
- Brickyards and block yards: an extra used machine to cover busy months, or one bought for spare parts
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: a used machine to make bricks on a remote site, sold on afterwards
