I am unclear as to what to do with this part of my house, "The Breakfast Nook".
I used a bar bell weight with plastic feet bolted in, I drilled 4 holes from the top down and used big washers to bolt it in with nylock nuts then repainted the base flat black, the bolts are not really noticeable
backerboard - It weighs the same as concrete because it is concrete (without the rocks). Backerboard has a re-bar like (fiberglass) mesh reinforcement so it doesn't crumble. It is easy to carve as 40 year old set concrete (not). I use a concrete drill to rough out the shape, then a hammer, chisel, jigsaw, and a collection of blades to break through the fiberglass. It takes a lot of patience and a good collection of swear words.
