As for the slow set, it really helps when I am doing the tiki face. I am hoping the new store will carry all the good stuff as well. Heck I can get specco for around $15 bucks a bag buy the multiple pallets but as you say the shipping sucks. If the new store sells it and the price is fair you can believe I will be making the road trip over and getting pallets form them. Have not tried tru pack yet but will in the near future. I am in the beginners stage and need to compare my crap with the real thing to see what it is really like.  Thanks again got get the boat in the water today, the spring Dolphin run has hit our shores and I am going out to get me some.

I'm just scramblin' like crazy trying to see if I can actually complete a vertical project in time for the big launch. I'm almost afraid to ask what you've been up to, with the mad skills you possess!

Took The texture very well and carved out nice, The way I mixed it was a bit grainy but I did not use the par-alight. I used a pre mixed vermiculight product and stucco sand. Loved how sticky it was and made it a bit creamy as well. Just nice to know it is going to stay were I put it, hope this tiki is cool. Think I have a good flow going, My winch is screaming for me to come eat  Dinner gata roll.

It's going, buddy. I've spent these past weeks gathering all I need to do countertops, carving and making my own sink molds. As you can see, I got a practice wall up and had my first day of carving since my 'hands on project.' Man, was it a blast! Tomorrow and the rest of the week I will be making my first custom sink mold and hopefully countertop as well. All I am doing now is practicing to build the confidence/experience I need to make my showroom top notch. I might have some funds allocated to building something in the showroom next month. That would be real nice. Next time you come down we need something cool to do. Perhaps a pillar. Thanks for the comments.

What's up? I didn't realize you were so close to Cape Coral. I need to get ahold of some old contacts there and see if I can get you connected to them. Might be a good thing for you. It sure would be awesome if some of us could get together down there for a cool project, and then drown some bait out in the gulf! I'm not sure what kind of project, but if I were to think of something totally original, from my head, maybe a 25' mediterranean kitchen on a trailer, or a Naples showroom, or something. I don't know, those are just two things I thought of all on my own. What do you think?

Thought I'd lay low for awhile, after all, a guy can't just keep smacking hornets nests all the time. I'll be in touch soon, got some cool things a poppin.

'Sup Scott? How's the meals on wheels coming along? Keep me posted if you think to. I'm pulling for you from K.C.-some say that's the home of B.B.Q. (just don't tell that to anyone from Texas, Mississippi, or anywhere else they have grills).

Thanks Scott for warm welcome, your work is highly impressive. I just may take you up on the help offer once I get back to Orlando. My 3 year stint here in Iraq, which should be coming to an end within the next few months, has been a long one and finding VA on the web has inspired me to pick up this new hobby, has been a real motivator and morale booster. Take easy and keep up the posts, the info is very helpful for newbies like me.

Hi Scott, thanks ! I`ve checked some of your work as well as other guys`s and they`re amazing ! Hope to learn lots and share the little  I know. Got to be fun to say the least. For the time, I`m getting acquainted with the site, so it`ll take me a little while to know my way around. Down here near the jungle, grin, there`s no "ready mix" products one could buy off the shelf. Importing materials is but economical, so in all one must be creative from scratch. I`ve manged to make Fe Chloride, and other basic chem mixes to get blue, green, reddish brown, rusty yellow, blackish....so I`m pretty excited. Shit, must be careful, `cause had my face and eyes irritated from HCl careless handling. Texturing mats, rollers, etc, forget it! Like I said, one got to be really creative here and reinvent the wheel, but it`s fun and there`s a market to grab ! By the way, I have no problem with staining, structure design, but my learning concern is texturing and shaping say rocks. Is there a book or video that focus deeply into this part, like for advanced folks? Not to say I`m advanced in this ferrocement business, but would like to get to the real thing without concentrating so much on basic stuff. Thanks again buddy.
