      It’s funny that you likened my rock to the moon landing. As I did a project that we made eight big rocks for NASA's
      Curiosity Mars Science Laboratory for the Mars rover Landing in 2012. We made 8 large rock for their national tour. These rocks, Ralston meet out of cardboard in the lightweight due to my high strength. Fiber reinforced cement mix.

    I'm mad my roommate threw all my cardboard out. I had enough to lay on ground for a new flower bed set up and make me a n rock to put in it. Man I'm mad...finding good ideas where to pick up cardboard though. I want to make a rock!! One the cat can lay and stretch out a bit while I have Coffee and watch me pick weeds.

      A lot of times, when I make a bigger rock outcropping a segmented which allows me to be able to make it into move it in the future more easily . Instead of thinking of a boulder you should think of a boulder outcropping, but if I was to make a 4‘ x 8‘ rock say that was a foot tall. I could make that 168 pounds.

      @@fauxrock thanks for all of your great videos, I've learned so much!! I understand acryl 60 is an admix similar to Sika at homedepot... but they recommend adding it to your mortar mix, why do you spray it on an hour before versus simply adding it in to your mix? --- Also can you spray it on days before or do you recommend just before you start mudding?

      In the beginning when I made the rock originally I just use the mortar mix from Lowe’s and that’s all I was going to do for this entire Rock project. I only switch to my high strength. Fiber reinforced cement mix because of the flat top having structural requirements that I couldn’t do with the mortar mix without going 3 inches thick.
