Re: Jim\'s new projects
Beautiful job !! , I have always wondered how they put the stone up before doing the mortaring? Is that some kind of special backing that the stone sticks to, holding them in place until mortar can be applied, or just a thin layer of mortar? I ask because I have been contemplating doing the same thing to the base of our house. /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

Re: Jim\'s new projects
Thanks Chad...
Barry:
They tack a metal web to the face of the building and then apply a coat of cement. when that dries, they attach the stone veneer much like you would brick, with a cement morter.
After the stone has dried some, they start the morter the gaps.
Thanks Chad...
