    nice work but would like to know a little more about what your finishing plans are for the rock. are you going to drill some holes and polish some of them? don't take me wrong here i was just wondering b/c it is interesting.

    worked great for me, very nice video, although I wish I coudlve seen a little more on your actual "forming" and "shaping" of the rock to get a little better understanding. Very nice video though thanks a lot for putting the time into this =)

    thanks

    I dont plan on drilling them but ive heard of people doing that in the past

    The rock salt dissolves and leaves behind a bunch of holes

    Haha, I guess I can understand that! You should recruit someone to do the filming for you while you show off the rock making =P

    Ha I bet!
    Hey sollie nice job! 8)

    I am a Rage fan, but the music was a bit much at 3am with the girlfriend sleeping. Hope I didn't miss some narration. ;)

    Good 3 steps, good recipe and great results.
    Great tip on wearing a mask too, especially if you drill rocks.


    Thanks for stepping up on this contest! Good luck! k+
