It does look cool. What is a cinder block? Must be another cold weather thingy.

It is not actual a cinder block, it is a decorative concrete piece designed to stand up and be mortared to others to create a vertical wall with the design. A cinder block is a block in various sizes usually used to build foundations and are made out of concrete. Usually cinder blocks around about 8wx10Lx8H but can be bought in various sizes. They are also commonly used to build the exterior and interior walls in large buildings such as factories. Thats your lesson for today in Cold Climate building, and a lot more goes into it but all ya need to know.
