Who else likes rocks?

I have a "rock dump" in my backyard, and anyone who wants to adopt any of these things is welcome to them if they promise to just give them a good home.</font color=blue>

Do you offer free shipping?

Folks:
Congradulations to all of you on the many and varied uses you have made of rock. There has been many an hour of sweat and thought spent from what the pictures show.
I am using slate to make a small camping area by a lake. At the bottom of one field the little 7100 has managed to drag in an assortment of larger rocks to create a wall which stops jacklighters from driving over the field. The neighbour has just finished digging up a lovely pile of slate rocks for my use. Just haven't had time to get to them yet. If some of the slate splits nicely it may even end up as table tops etc. A few miles down the road in the ditch there is a large granite rock on which the end has spalled off leaving the rounded outside but a circular flat broken surface that may end up as a picnic table top.

I haven't the ability to post pictures but that may be fortunate as my projects will not meet the standards you folks have set.

Egon

Michael ever since you posted those pictures I've been meaning to tell you something.

From the perspective of a soon to be father in law I'd bet you're one fine fella for a father in law to share such fun with you.

It looks like a nice job. And it is good that you are proud of it. I would be.

Hello Everyone:

Thanks for all the compliments, but I'm really not all that accomplished.

Dave,

I just picked up a boom pole this week (note how pretty it is /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif), and started harvesting rocks at Eagle Ridge. I don't have a dozer - or even a big pickup, so it will have to be a few at a time. At any rate, I snagged 3 dolomite "boulders" (see attachment) for various family members to use as landscaping accents.

These are nice ideas for rocks.. and I have a big pile in the back yard just waiting for my wife to tell me where she wants them.

I dunno, rock is okay, but I've always been more of a jazz guy myself. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

WraughtnHarv...

A late query to your July post...
"But when I started telling her about the process she got a little glassy eyed and told me about a picture she had of her father in his shop with his welding hood on his head flipped back like he'd just finished a weld. She wants to get it to me to see if I can do it in granite."
How did you fare with this?
