I replied to you "Free" post regarding the urbanite. I would love to use it to build the retaining wall infront of my house. Do you have any information on how I might find this type of "urbanite" in my own area? The work you did is absolutely beautiful. Scott Hi, I followed your post on craigslist to here. beautiful work.

I prefer dry lay technique to mixing portland , when possible. I really like this iron sulfate stain . I currently have a project to rip out a 30 ft. long 34 inch high retaining wall made of pressure treated lumber. I thought of replacing it with a dry lay urbanite look . What size pieces are preferable, and how do I go about doing the iron sulfate stain? Can I do the stain just on the exterior sides when the wall is complete , or must I do it in advance?
