<p>Cement overlays</p>
<p>Epoxy Overlays</p>
<p>Vertical Stamping</p>

17 members<br> <p>OK the date is soon coming....this will be a start to finish class with one table being created for a company called " Every Blooming Thing"</p>
<p>I have spoken with the owners and have the permission to fabricate a Old Stone Table in the very front of their business. This will be out in the public and we will be using this as an example to show contractors how to network with local landscapes and nurseries to build their repertoire. </p>
<p>The class dates will be soon coming... I can do this any time and would like some feed back as to what else we may do in this time frame.</p>
<p>The cost of this class will only be $300 and all Students participating will receive the OLD STONE CLASS ONLINE FOR FREE when released. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The class will be held in the public on location and in the ware house of Walt Tools.</p>
