Jerry In Maine
I'm watching you...
if you've ever lived in maine you'd know how ironic it is to have to buy rock. there's rock everywhere - just not the kind i wanted, so i went to a landscaping company and bought a pallet of nice flat footstones used for walkways. these will stack nicely on the ledges and edges of my liner, but i need to stack them up a bit to hide the 70 gal stock tank of my skippy filter. the tank is buried about a foot down to lower it but still, i'm going to have to stack some rock up to the point where it might get a bit tippy near my skippy.
thought of using the insulating foam-in-a-can and putting a dallop on a rock then stacking another on top - trying not to let too much foam squirt out so that its visible. if so it could be trimmed. i just need enough strength to help support the facade a bit, and i've never seen anything more sticky than expanding foam.
home depot sell a masonry cement in a tube you appply with a caulking gun, but with the stone being irregular in shape it might take quite a bit in order to get a good bond, and a big pile of goop might take a long time to cure.
i realize i could use mortar but don't think i need to go to that extent to get a little stability.
any ideas?
