Timfish Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 We get to play with clay! OK it's white portland cement mixed "dry" so it's the consistancy of clay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesL Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Dave, thank you for the graciousness (as always) for hosting this meeting. I won't be able to make it... this weekend and next a bit chaotic for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Here's a teaser! This is a hollow "pump tower" for Mike Frames tank build. It will house several power heads that can be pointed in different directions and remain hidden. I'm also going to demonstrate how to make "branch rock" using sand castings. Another demonstration compliments of Brian.srock will be how to make an aragacrete base for a "Drop off" tank minimizing the amount of dry and/or live rock needed. See ya'al tomorrow!

subsea Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 If you need straw for your adobe bricks, I will bring a 5G bucket of Red Ogo. If you don't use it in your concrete mix, we can eat it in a chevichee. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timfish Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 It was good to see everybody, especially the new members! Here's the frag plugs made yesterday, they're still a little soft so I'll let them dry another day then soak them in vinigar to cure them.

Mark V Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Thanks Dave and Robin. I enjoyed meeting you all. You have a beautiful tank. My wife enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and likes the idea of hosting in the future once we actually have a tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
