Some of you were able to see the rock I made and brought to the meeting at Kevins house (those were samples) made of southdown sand, crushed oyster shell and concrete...Some liked it, some were skeptical...If interested I could make a "special" rock for you. Just abt any shape, design or size (within limits)...It would be cured here to leech impurities and lower the Ph, through research I have learned the best method of doing this.....time. It takes abt 6-8 weeks to fully cure with water changes every 2 weeks...I've made arches, caves, tables and whts called lace rock...What I'm suggesting is, If interesed, lmk know now wht you want via drawing, picture or descripion and when the rock is ready, I will trade for a frag , cool invert or whatever, I'm easy....lmk if interested

Due to overwhelming responce, this badboy gets a ^ ....Cmon guys dont be scared.....If you dont like it, you could always use it as bookend :roll: I am currantly using about 40 pounds of it myself as baserock (2 cave's and an arch with no ill-effects...Lets do this...I'll make one for you for free to satisfy curiousity. If you like it and thinks thats its worth tradin for, then we can work something out, if not, I have a sinkhole nearby thats beggin to be filled... :?

The only thing I think that might be a problem is most of the people needing rock right now don't have anything to trade....

Well, I tried makin the statue but their d!#&$ keep breakin off (sounds like a medical problem), so into the sinkhole it went.........OK peeps, how bout I make a rock for you and give u .37 and a 4 yr old issue or popular mechanics with every rock....now thats a deal!!!!! :?

Like I stated earlier, the rock wouldn't be ready for abt 2 months.....No takers huh......ok

Evermann, I would be interested in frag rocks. I need some flattish rocks that would be good for glueing frags to.

If you get anything like that going, let me know.
