I dont know if this is the proper location for this question but oh well. I am looking to make my own molds for making bricks to make a fence. Me and my wife have our own idea on blocks and are thinking about making the mold, getting cement and adding whatever mixtures we need.
My question is does anyone know what approx proportions get mixed in to get a texture such as a cinderblock? Or a texture as a split face. I am assuming sand and fine gravel, but I dont know at what proportions or precentages to mix in at. Since they are non bearing, and no loads will ever be applied I am not really worried about strength, only enough to hold the wall up. Any help would be appreciated.
