Form liner

A gang form liner for use in forming a wall having a natural stone wall contour from hardenable construction material comprising:

• a) first and second form liners each having:
• i) a lateral relief mold face including:
• A) a plurality of recessed portions, each recessed portion having a three-dimensional contour of a portion of a natural stone for forming a stone region having a three dimensional contour of a natural stone wall;
• and
• B) a latticework interlocking portion surrounding at least a portion of a perimeter of each of said recessed portions for forming a mortar region that lies between said stone regions of the natural stone wall;
• and
• ii) a mating edge along a perimeter of said lateral relief mold face, said interlocking portion intersecting said mating edge at a plurality of mating alignment points, said mating alignment points being spaced equidistant along said mating edge, a distance between any two adjacent mating alignment points equal to a mating alignment unit, at least one of said recessed portions positioned between each of said adjacent mating alignment points, said at least one recessed portion contiguous with and forming a part of said mating edge;
• and
• b) means for mounting each of said form liners adjacent to one another to form a gang form liner wherein said mating edge of said first liner and said mating edge of said second liner are mated, wherein at least two of said mating alignment points of said first form liner are aligned with at least two of said mating alignment points of said second form liner, and wherein at least one of said recessed portions between said aligned mating alignment points of said first form liner is aligned with at least one of said recessed portions between said aligned mating alignment points of said second form liner to form at least one continuous stone-forming recessed portion.

A form liner for use in forming a wall having a natural stone wall contour from hardenable construction material comprising:

• a) a lateral relief mold face including:
• i) a plurality of recessed portions, each recessed portion having a three-dimensional contour of a portion of a natural stone for forming a stone region having a three-dimensional contour of a natural stone wall;
• and
• ii) a latticework interlocking portion surrounding at least a portion of a perimeter of each of said recessed portions for forming a mortar region that lies between said stone regions of the natural stone wall;
• and
• b) a mating edge along a perimeter of said lateral relief mold face, said mating edge comprising four sides, said four sides arranged to define two sets of opposed sides, said interlocking portion intersecting said mating edge at a plurality of mating alignment points, a first plurality of said recessed portions positioned along said mating edge between said mating alignment points, said first plurality of recessed portions contiguous with and forming a part of said mating edge, one of said mating alignment points on each side of each of said first plurality of recessed portions positioned along said mating edge, said mating alignment points on each side of each of said first plurality of recessed portions being equally spaced apart for each recessed portion and defining a mating alignment unit, at least one set of opposed sides of said mating edge having a mating alignment unit on both of said opposed sides, said form liner being adapted to mate with another form liner along said mating edge in a plurality of mating configurations.
