| I made three of these 25" wide, 4" tall hypertufa millstone for decorations. Used a hot water heater drain pan for a mold and a piece of 4" tall lawn edging.
Then drew the lines on the 2nd day and unmolded. |

| Good job! I'm wondering how much they weigh? |
|
| Hi posieh, these weigh approx 40-45 pounds. I use in equal parts, 1 five gallon bucket of portland cement, 1 five gallon bucket of peat moss, 1 five gallon bucket of perlite. ((A 90 pound bag of portland cement will fill a five gallon bucket "twice".)) I'm trying to plan some other projects. |
|
| Hi all, I'd also like to add, thanks for the compliments on the millstone. |
