Making Lava Rock - Other Crafts

Whilst building a wall the other day we threw some broken AAC blocks into our cement mixer to clean it out after using it. When we went to remove them they had turned into nicely rounded rocks, now we are using them for a feature. OK uou might need a cement mixer to do this but they are cheap to hire , it's really quick to do (20 mins) and looks fantastic. [ Edited by: cheekytiki 2008-09-09 13:00 ]
