Hello Eric,

I used durarock for the backer. I used primer throughout the whole process. I have done some small sample pieces with this and checked for moisture penetration. None. The primer is essentially skinning over creating a moisture barrier. After coloring I used a 2 part urethane applying 2 coats within a 12 hour window. Hope this helps.

Hey Eric,
I Have been using tru pacs for my carving. For the skims I have been making my own.

hi..I use joint compound (blue) from home depot

Can you tell about?if not a secret:))

Eric I hope all is well. Thom & I have spoke and he wants the training to be hands on at the moment. You can never tell what the future might hold.

Eric its no problem at all to get it 2" with the sprayer I was going to call you this evening. I am still here with Thom in Nebraska and we are adding on to the studio. I hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else I will be glad to help.

The campfire was made with blocks so we covered them with plaster. The fire will be on top so heat will not damage the plaster.
