Not I but I think if you look in Garden Junk or accoutrements there are some on those forums. Billie

I have a photo of a bird feeder I did and you could go along with that same concept. Basically, I used a small pail for the house portion. Insteading of making a small hole, you could carve in a doorway. For the roof, I just used the bottom pedestal for those plastic grecian planters. Or, you can use a small plastic bowl and make an outside mold, leaving an edge of about two inches and make a small ball of mud for the top piece. Flip over the next day, and gently wire brush taking out the small plastic bowl. Gently carve along the edge and place on top of house.

I have discovered that you can hand drill holes, doorways or etc. in your hypertufa projects. I use an old kitchen knife and slowly "hand drill" a hole where I want it. Even when cured, hypertufa is soft enough to carve into. Once your hole is big enough, just carve in straight sides if you want a square or rectangle, or even an arch for a doorway. The fun of hypertufa is just experimenting.

When making any new piece I think about surrounding the mix inside and outside with a form that will come apart so the finished piece can be removed. I have made a few cottages by making plywood boxes for the inside and outside. They are simply made to cover the four sides of the house I am trying to make. The ends include the gable part that goes up to the ridge of the roof. Windows and doorways can be made with removable styrafoam or wooden pieces. After removing from the mold wood door and window frames can be hand made from some easy to work wood--even plastic. If you can find the proper size of wire cloth, you can cut pieces to look like the "munttons" between the glass panels of the windows.
When filling the mold, tamp down the mix with a stick between the inside and outside forms.
The roof could be tin or made from hypertufa in a form that gives a shape that when hand worked might look like a tile roof. This can benefit if you have good skill with detailed things. Red dye can be used to make it tile color.
I know, this is probably as clear as mud.--No pun intended. Sorry, I have no pictures to show, because this was an experiment that I tried a few times and didn't document. However, it did work, and with some practice could have been improved upon.

Hi, fredw10 ~ I'm starting to think there's a plot out there to keep people from learning how to make small cement cottages! ( So they can keep selling them at $180 plus?! ) Your description is the closest I've found. My quandry is how to make the mold itself to pour the hypertufa/cement INTO. I know that usually the process has you place a smaller container inside a similar shaped larger container, then pour the tufa in between, but that seems to limit you to the shape of the containers available.
( Wood is a good idea, but what if I wanted the edges curved instead of sharp? ) Any ideas?

Use an oatmeal carton. Not much rounder than that!! Or, just get some corrugated cardboard, and make your own sizes.

I have just been amazed at all the photos on the web if you do a search on 'hypertufa'. WOW I am impressed. What I just read about is using a pull away mold using cardboard, plastic, or wood forms. I am thinking if you make a mold out of some heavy cardboard taped up with duct tape, and you use the inside or outside as your mold shape and then pull it away when mostly set, and then carve out your windows and doors. Just another idea..(never made anything yet, but chomping at the bit to try as well).

woodsmiss_gardener, who has them for sale for $180+? Do you have any photos?
