I purchased some red crushed rock and made some stencils, in which I put the rocks into the wet concrete. We made a picture of a sun and a moon with several stars placed around the edge of the room. When the concrete fully cures we will grind the top off and we hope that our patterns will show through clearly.

Things really got moving on the July the 21st. I employed a concreter and a pump to do all the hard work, plus with the help of my father and a good friend we got the pour done. We used approx 9 cubic metres of concrete. The pour started at 10:00 and we were pushing it to finish by 5:00 in the afternoon as it was cool weather and the concrete was slow to go off.
