That's a work of an artist! Excellent! The concrete rock looks so natural. So clever you made drainage holes for those bromeliads to grow. Beautiful!
GREAT video, look no further! He gets right to it; easy to understand instructions and visuals, no irritating ad interruptions - thanks! 👍🏼
Love that you dive right in. This sounds ideal for me, I can't lift heavy boulders. But I don't think my manager would appreciate that large of boulder in my yard. I might make a smaller.rock garden. You are obviusly an artist as well as a creative genius!! GOOD JOB! The finished boulder with.plants is stunning!
I'm so inspired! I'm going to try this outside of my painting studio. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you very much for the detailed instructions! Many yt channels wouldn't disclose their formula and mixing steps.
RUclips is so awesome !!! Best site on the net...how else am I gonna learn the 1000 different technics to make/craft amazing things, or get a teacher with experience and know-how that will tell me what to do but also what NOT to do, avoiding me alot of mistakes...thanks for posting this, you are very talented sir !
Easy to make, difficult to get them to look so very realistic. Richard has a great eye for style and detail.
very good your video will apply your technique here in my garden in Brazil a hug and thank you for sharing your knowledge
Mr. Moore you shouldn't care what anyone else says this video is AMAZING!!!! Thanks from- a kid who just got help with a how to make rocks procedure homework for science class!! :)
FANTASTIC!
AMAZING job you did over there and i hope to see more of your work
That is a gorgeous piece of art. Damn. Guess I'll be wiring mine up since I live in a wicked freeze thaw cycle. I'm not from Australia or NZ. I just started placing the slabs on a lumpy bumpy piece of property today. Can't wait to work on this further. Found a great thing to do with all of the boulders from a really messed up retaining wall that was built incorrectly. In the states you must have soil and grass going over the retaining wall or the frost will collapse your wall big time. It's cold here, like 2 degrees fahrenheit or -17 celsius. Stunning.
Hi Richard, That looks fantastic!!! Thank you so much for sharing. I feel inspired to give this a try today!! Really luv how this looks finished!!
What an awesome job! I really love this
So many flavors for boulders and rockscapes!! Great job!!
very nice my friend Richard! i love landscaping and in my free time i try to do my faux rocks...lol
no so good like you but i try
God bless you
Two thumbs up!. Great work Mr. and Mrs. Moore
I am so proud of myself I didn't recognize your accent but I figured out your location by the plants in your garden.
I just put a bid on a property that had a lot of rubble on site. I was going to have it all hauled away. I think you just saved me $1200 in cleanup costs and helped me to burn about 25,000 calories (at least) and some concrete, dyes, etc. If the deals goes through I am putting your tutorial into use. I appreciate you. Thank you.
Hola
Wow, you are an artist. I'd love to make something like this in large scale for our goats to play on.
fantastic! I love rocks, and in landscaping here (GA) they can be expensive to buy. But Construction sites abound with broken pieces that would be perfect for this, and best thing, they are usually free as the guys don't want to move them! Thanks for the great video!
Wonderful very cool, wish we could make stuff like that last in Canada, The frost here would have it's way with that job and turn it to rubble in one or two seasons. we get plastic and composite rocks, but if you touch them they feel like plastic, your works are beautiful and would have no plastic feel
You're an artist! This is awesome.
Good looking little waterfall and the landscaping looks great.
Thank you Moore! Very inspiring. I'll try it myself. Any idea how to polish concrete?
I like your work!!
Thank you From Japan.
Just beautiful! I so thank you for sharing your talent not just for me but for all who found you before me and and all that will find you after. I would love to know the names of the flowers added in the final shot as they too add soo much. God's blessings,
Gina~
Tremendous artwork!!!
Wow amazing technique! I kinda like it with less plants on it tho but the idea was awesome! Great job mate cheers!
Thanks for your message. That is a great idea to add in here. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
You sir, are amazing! Nice work
I have watched these videos for several years and have made a few rocks, I live in Phoenix Az. So my rocks are hopefully, more like rocks found in Az.
very nice work you've done hope can transfer this technique to our friends
Thank You!, great video, beautiful job u did.
Wonderful! Thank You for this fun and informative video!🙏
Excellent video. By far the easiest one to make fake rocks. Any tips for using this technique in Canada? Will it get through a snowy -20 winter?
i think I will try this thank you for sharing
I saw some fake rocks at a home show yesterday, that looked like a pile of baby poo. Your rocks look amazing! Nice job! Colour and texture make all the difference.
Thank you for your nice comment Javier.
Very nice. Another little project for me.
I feel as though I have watched more diy pond rock water videos than a man should. And I must say, This one was the best. I've been afraid to add water to my cement until now! Having been really shown a well explained, simple technique - Im good to go! He incorporates artistic Hands-on and not store bought, while its also light on material$$, and laborious time- moving dirt,rocks, wet tarps and calk! Congrats! Thanks, and... will you be my dad?
Seth Sims what did you make in the end?
Perfect and easy job, thanks man
Totally Awesome job. Love it.
Damn dude nice job! That looks awesome!
Very nice...and inspirational. thanks
exceptional ! thanks for sharing with the world !
superb job!
i loved this video and am so excited to do this instead of using pond liner for my waterfall
Do not use concrete in water with fish. It releases high ph over many months and will kill your fish and plants. Use a liner to protect your fish.
Beautiful work.
Thanks Max.
You done an amazing job
Good job looks great 👍
I love this! Brilliant. I wish I had the talent to do this to create a "waterfall" into my old fiberglass pool. I would love to see a rock creation like this with the plant pockets filled with suitable mediums and planted with native ferns, grasses , wildflowers and groundcovers, ie- Florida native Lemon Bacopa, which is fragrant, has true blue flowers and attracts butterflies, especially beautiful White Peacock butterflies.
whoa.
Very nicely done.
Impressive, nice Job!
thank you for showing ...
I benefited a lot from your beautiful and wonderful thank you very much
THANKYOU for this.
Mr Moore, THAT"S A TERRIFIC JOB. Here in Seattle WA USA, that idea will come in handy.......cheers
thanks, will give it a go.
Awesome, thank you for your sharing.
Good video. Can you please suggest the mix for filing faux rocks cracks?
Very nice job!
Terrific stuff!
Thank you its much appreciated
Great video.
Would love to know more about the "oxides' you were going to put on to make it look more weatherd ?
oxide is just rust. Red rust and yellow rust and black rust are the same, just different metals
excellent, thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you 😊
soooo, you've just piled those concrete slabs on top of each other? have you cemented them together first? If my section I'm doing ( only small 2mx1m) is on a slope should I build the deeper side up first?
Richard, great video. How resilient is this structure to use for a waterfall?
Verry good work !!...
You are the best!!!!!❤
I like that boulder. that is a nice boulder.
The Polished Gent
The Polished Gent Donkey!
Brilliant! I'm 52 & knew right away where that came from. You win in the comments section! LOL
This was great! How heavy is that compared to real rocks or concrete?
Thank you.
Thanks Haji
Hi Sam, You can buy Black Oxide from most hardware supply places that sell concrete and plaster.
Mr Moore give thanks,,,great i wish i could work with you,,,there
Nice job..
Great vid, thanks !!
Thanks.
thanks for the inspiration mate! moore79 from south Brisbane
Thanks
If you live in a frost zone - don't skip the wire reinforcement. Frost ruins anything it can get under, simple as that.
really really cool!A+
Very nice.
very nice man!!!!
Just put a waterproofing agent in the concrete mix. No need to seal the concrete. Leave your pond with water in for a week or so then drain. Refill it and then put a little bit of aloe vera in to the water as a destressing agent for your fish....and add also a de-chlorinating agent in the water or leave water for a few days before putting fish into it.
My pleasure Nash. Let us know how you get on.
really inspiring. What type of concrete mix did you use and is the oxide for color? Keep the great videos coming.
Hii Richard.... It looks very good :) havent you make a video from your painting off the rocks ???
Hello,
Do you happen to have a video on how to apply the oxide?
brilliant job!!! very creative and just a wonderful feature in the end..love it, thank you!
can we use it for ponds?????
The oxide is for color so it goes right through the mortar. The recipe is on the video.
THANKS FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST. ( REYES WATERFALL AND POOL REPAIRS EL CAJON CITY )
Yeah
Yes I have just uploaded a new video on aging rocks with oxide...please look at R4 Aging Rocks
WOW!!!!! That is beautiful!!!! I am a water feature freak!!!! Look out construction site...I am coming after your clumps and broken concrete!!! Hello new water feature in my back yard!!!! What did you use exactly for your holding trough? For the water to recirculate from the bottom back up to the top? THanks for the great video!!!!!
