    To make things even cheaper like foam rocks you could go to your local habitat store and they had some 2.25" thick 4x8 pieces of foam that i bought for $5.00/sheet and you could have made your boulders from that.
    Rather then go to lowes and buy a sheet of plastic for $100.00+ go to the habitat store and buy a used screen door with the plastic window insert for $10-$20.00 and use it. I did that for a guy who wanted see thru cabinet doors down low in his kitchen but didn't want to use glass because of his little kids.

    I love shopping in the habitat store because i find things that can be used for some completely different repurposing.

    And I agree with Doug that for a lot of us it's more about the creative journey and the things we learn by doing. I guess that's why it's called a "hobby".

    I think buying the rock you did was the right decision for you,
    although I rarely see you defending such an inconsequential personal decision so strongly. I hope that it is not a case of "thou dost protest too much".
    Mike will do as he will do. Right or wrong (if there really is such a thing in this case) the consequences are pretty minor.
    Hope all are having a relaxing Labor Day Weekend.
