Thank you, but I must admit I cheated a little. I specialize in custom molds and texture mats. The picture is of some thick vertical and a cottonwood texture stamp

Either way, it's fair play in my opinion...

Chris,

The fire pits we have been making for over 15 years using basic burners, lines and accessories found at most home stores.  The decorative concrete is more of learning to mold textures in nature.  Most vertical concrete out there is so easy to use (provided it has a good base to start with) that it really comes down to practice and the creativity of the individual.  Hope this helps a little.

Thanks matt
I have been trying for 2 years to get bark look and can only get it with a roller that is satisfactory to me. Free hand I just can't make it look real. But thanks I'll keep practicing.

Hey Matt, excellent job mate! Does it run on gas, or is it a spirit burner?

You've come a long way since back when.
