It's done by stripping the inside wall form after the concrete has taken a
set and the inside radius is hand finished with an addition of a little
extra concrete to form the radius. You can use bagged concrete with some
extra cement added for this radius work, as the rocks are smaller and it
will be easier to screed with a radius forming tool.
