    Who likes flagstone anyway?!

    A yard of sand, 1 1/2 bag of gator dust, 600 lbs of flagstone, and lots of sweat!









    Any questions?

    It's like grout that you simply sweep into the cracks and hose down. It's like a polymer based sand. Kind of a pain in the ass but probably not so much when used with experience. This was my first attempt at any such stone work.

    OK, we usually use decomposed granite for that

    Yes, but this stuff forms a solid, water resistant barrier that holds the stone slabs in place. At least that's why I used it...
