Welcome, king! We do have some folks who enjoy playing around with it - under the member galleries you should find some photos from Bethie, her garden has all sorts of hypertufa goodies in it.
Take a look around, and enjoy. Glad to have you.

Hi king, I am into garden crafts, check out my tutorial on glass garden totems. Bethie does hypertufa, Toni is big into making garden ornaments from "junk" and so am I. I am sure there are more on here, but I am brain dead right now, past my bedtime. Welcome to the Stew and don't be a stranger. I would love to see pictures of your work. Where do you hale from.

I hope to try my hand at hypertufa and concrete casting one day. I really want to do some leaves. I have giant elephant ears and I want to do some of those in concrete. And some smaller type of leaf to use as hose guides. Can't wait for some tips.

Hello to the king from Scotland!!!! 
There are members here who can do amazing things with all sorts of materials and you're bound to see something you like. I hope you'll show us some of your garden art too so that we can drool over it.
Take a look around and you'll see plenty of piccies of the beautiful art that the folks here produce.

Hi there and welcome to the Stew.I can't wait to see your work.I want to do some hypertufa too but Texas is way to hot right now to begin.
Take a look at Bethies and Cajunbelles things I think you will enjoy them.
Hope you spend lots of time here.
