Typically I will make 10-20 planters at a time. I will come up with a general size that I want to make for example 20 iches x 24 inches. Those dimensions would be if you were looking fom above. After deciding on that I will order a block with those dimensions that is 8- 16 feet long. At this point I can decide how tall I want them. Using a chainsaw or hand saw I cut that 8-16 foot piece into individual blocks just like cutting cubes of cheese off a larger block. What I end up with is a rectangular block more or less that I will then cut and sculpt to the general shape I am looking for. Going over foam, I like to glue my scratch coat directly to the foam. To do this I use flex-c-ment primer, It's much easier than trying to use lath. After this it's up to you how you want to attack the carve coat.

I have glued added features with gorilla glue a number of times. I personally have not used recycled foam in my projects but you certainly could for fill in a non structural application

hey duder

what product are you using for that countertop micro topping

Hey Will, I used Eco procote deco-poz. It's two part, a pail of pozzolan and a jug of polymer. Just mix what you need and go. It's a nice system that requires no primer, all you have to do is prep the surface and apply. It bonds to anything.

I think its a touch over 6000psi, it's tough and it bonds real strong.

Good day,
I picked interest in you after going through your short profile and demanding it is necessary for me to write to you immediately. I have something very important to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on (ronaldmorr001@gmail.com) for full details.
Best regards,
