I did have a few brittle pieces on my second bactch with just Oyster Shell. I think the trick was a little more cement and wetter made it work better. Also remember that the longer it is most the stronger it will set. I took them right out of the mold and placed them in a kiddy pool for month. THey are very poress and very strong.
