yoursurrogategod Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Hi all, Recently I took out this book on building stone walls: http://www.amazon.com/Building-Stone-Walls-John-Vivian/dp/0882660748/ref=pd_bxgy_b_img_b I love it! Can't wait to try in real-life (need some land stones first). Just curious, has anyone done anything like this before? Share it here!

xyph Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Tried what? To start a discussion while plugging my referral ID into the product link? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/265261-dry-stone-wall-construction/#findComment-1359423 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Nah, that's not a referral link. Amazon associates uses tag= for associate ID. ref= is just for the location of where the product was clicked (for analytics data.)

yoursurrogategod Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 I'm using Chrome in Ubuntu and the link shows up fine for me. What is it that you guys are seeing? You can also copy the text of the link into a tab in your browser and see the book that way. But back to my previous question, has anyone tried to do dry-stone masonry? It looks like a sick challenge and fun . Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/265261-dry-stone-wall-construction/#findComment-1359453 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kicken Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 But back to my previous question, has anyone tried to do dry-stone masonry? It looks like a sick challenge and fun . Never have, probably wont either. For two reasons. 1) I dunno where I'd put a stone wall and 2) I'm sure I'd suck at it. I never was any good at tetris and it's kind of a similar thing, gotta put the right shaped stones in the right places. I'm somewhat of a poor builder in general. Everything always ends up very amateurish looking with various problems. The last thing I "built" was some flower beds next to the house. The ground and bricks are not very level. no matter how much I tried to get them level it seemed to never work out. It's not terrible looking, but it could be a lot better.
