Just wanted to show off some of the rockwork that I and Albert were commissioned to build recently.

Beer bottle for scale... I'm not an alcoholic.

Only 1 beer bottle for scale? Typically for this type of application a minimum of 3 would be recommended!

Nice work!

You can do it same day. Tyler and I have done rockwork for people with their existing rock on-site. You just need to be prepared properly and keep the rockwork damp with some towels or newspaper while the cement is curing.
