    Thumbs up Shhhh, don't tell my wife I made a tombstone... – 12-14-2009,05:56 PM


    So, I am violating the no props through the holidays rule a bit, but I couldn't help myself (and I already had all the ingredients = no money foul).

    My first adventure into "low relief" style ala the Mitchell's method. These were the tombstones I took many pictures of during my visit to Boston. One coat of Dryloc - no tea staining (Terra-style) yet.

    P.S. I routed about a 1/4" into the foam. So much for the "Low" relief part. Next time, I'm gonna be a little more conservative.

    Looks great. I like the deeper routing. I generally go 1/4 inch and IMO it looks neat. You did a very nice job on that.

    Looks good! How are you going to support it? PVC? Wire? Rebar?

    I think the 1/4" depth looks good. Wouldn't change a thing. Nice job, btw.
    If at first you don't suceed.... drink another beer!

    I'll be using rebar through 1/2" electrical conduit attached to the backside which is my usual method of support.
