I have a fair amount of small light weight pieces of dry rock lying around and I've been contemplating making some arches or cave structures out of them. They are really too light and small for stacking, and I haven't had much success using water weld epoxy in the past, so I am searching for alternative means to bond these small pieces together.
I was just wondering if anyone has ever used a quick setting Hydraulic Cement for this purpose? I am no Chemist, and looking at the MSDS sheet on this just makes me cross eyed.
Here is the MSDS list.
