    Updates......

    Custom backwall is framed up and setting here. White portland and Ccoral / COshell mix. First time using this method, was told that using more portland ratio would yield a harder end result, but would have to wait longer for cure. I went that route.

    LOL, technically it is months up to this point, and It's still not done. ;) But, I know what you mean. A year and a half I've spent thinking this out in my head. Once you get started, everything else just snow balls along.

    Thanks ;D
