I use the kittylitter/oil dry. You may not be old enough to know what I talking about next, but to size it I run it through an old sausage grinder that is hand powered. It has the different plates that can be exchanged to change the size of what you are grinding. A little stain or diluted paint can change the color. I also grind up charcoal used in fi***ank filters for coal as loads and ground cover around my engine service facility, dumping area at the power house and coal mine. I think it looks good and is inexpensive.
