Artifical raw materials used are coconut shell, reefs are widely obtained around their residence. Method of implementation: 1) Collection of raw materials of portland cement, coconut shell, coral and sand, 2) Manufacture of molding beggisting size 15cm x 30cm (22 pieces), 25cm x 40cm (19 pieces), and 10cm x 40cm (1 piece) with 2 cm of thickness, 3) Preparation of mortar with 2 layer composition, layer A with ratio 2 portland cement: 1 coconut shell: 1 coral, and B with the ratio of mixture 1 portland cemen: 2 sand and sufficient water, 4) Printing by filling the volume of the mold and allowing for 3 days, 5) Opening the mold begisting after casting 3 days, then soaking immersed for 3 days to get desired hardness, 6) Stripping the top layer to get desired texture with an iron grinder, 7) Doing the drying for 1 day and 8) We recommend that teh natural stone is finished with spesial paint for natural stone. The results obtained from the activity are: 1) Obtain the production of artifical natural stone, 2) Perform stripping of the top layer to obtain natural artificial stone texture using 2 cm thick grinding machine, 3) Conducting product marketing.Keywords: brand natural stone, coral stone, and piece of coconut shell.]]>
