Legacy Soil research

The design + science behind the Pearl Method. All live. Nothing archived.

The Pearl Method - how it works (slide deck)NEW

13-slide teaching deck. Three lineages (pan granulation + nerikomi + room-temp silicate), chemistry + mechanical stack, size philosophy, what we don't do, competitive differentiation, 15 linked videos + Hoadley book.

Patio pearling - practice starter guide

~$145 minimum kit. Four-zone patio workspace. Day 0-10+ process (bone meal + colloidal silica, hand-roll, 72h cure, Paraloid, polish, tung oil). Common failure modes + safety + success criteria.

Pearl size, density, stability - every lever

Granulator mechanics vs chemistry vs layered core-build. Pan-granulator ceiling 20-40mm. Bimodal packing 80%+ density (McGeary 1961). Layered build -> projected 80mm. References + honest caveats.
