Jake and I added the concrete to the plaster mold and are letting it cure until next weekend. We were able to add about 2 and 3/4 bags of Quikrete 5000 to the mold (80 pound bags = ~215 pounds). This will be our beginner weight rock depending on how much it ends up weighing. We are more than a little curious as to how it's going to turn out since there were more tiny rocks in the mix than we expected. So much for the smooth stone finish. Not a problem though since nearly everyone has said they want their home-made stones "rougher." I guess the smooth ones slip easier. Will post photo's of the process and final product.
Next project - Kegs with water and Sand (160 pounds and 238 pounds respectively)
