The hypertufa masterpieces my sweet makes just keep coming. This is how it all started, we had a 7 inch section of concrete pad that stuck out from under our mudroom and it looked brutal. So Jeff created some custom molds out of plywood and made these HT troughs to fit on the, now perfect, 7" concrete landing pads. I wiped the troughs with buttermilk and dirt to age them.
