;D Glad you asked! Sorry I don't have any updated pics, I'm at work right now so can't get a pic until later. Everything's going really well with...
very good point! :grin3:
Most people say you can find it at farm supply stores. I think it depends on where you live. I had trouble finding it locally, but maybe I looked in...
lol of course wikipedia has the answer!

I pulled the first rock I made out from the sand and rinsed it off. [IMG] well, you can see some of larger salt pieces lol I guess this is how it...
I just looked at your thread...the rock does look really good!!! I hope I can have the same results. we'll see soon. and I'll get some pics soon...
Thanks...just after my first try I'm already thinking of trying it a little different next time. thanks for the thread, I'll take a look :)
Thanks blackraven1425 and jake24. I think I've got about the right consistency. I didn't wear gloves, but I didn't get any wet cement on my hands....
