Thanks for the kind words, Mad Dog Mike. If I end up using hypertufa for the fountain I would indeed only coat the interior of the basin. I agree that the texture is kind of cool, but it was also pretty frustrating. Another concrete formulation I tried and liked better consisted of three parts vermiculite to one part concrete. It carves beautifully and is still quite textural. My dream is to have a whole bunch of these guys though out my house and back yard.
