Stacking Rocks

A little How To

Enlisting some help

That’s gonna go through the table!

Using a power drill to make a hole in several rocks

Once the rocks are drilled, its time to make the arrangement

Rotate the rocks until they are balanced

Looking for the best fit

Using some acrylic rods

Voila

Next up Making walls

Getting some help from the Birthday Girl

Use a few tie-wraps to put it together

Time to get messy with the Great Stuff foam

More foam

And a bit under there..

Mmmmm Whip Cream

Time to make it look rock- like

Use the needle nose pliers to make some divots

Poke a few more holes here and there

Now for the Epoxy to protect it from the UV rays and to give the final finish

Be sure to read and follow the instructions

It is a two part mix so measure it carefully as the instructions say

Get a cheap disposable paint brush to apply to all surfaces

Tip: If you are not done with the brush, you can wrap it in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator

Now that is has a nice wet coat of epoxy…

Add the final texture. Apply sand, crushed coral or shells to give it that Real-Rock finish

This is what it will look like when done

Success!

See you next month
