    I have now viewed several of you Video's, and have to say It's truly a breath of fresh air to watch a professional actually do the job the custom is paying for WITHOUT cutting corners to increase the profits. Your technics are a tribute to your skills. Your customers are really fortunate having you and your crew on the JOB!

    Mr. Odell, I just watched this video for the second time and again I am very impressed with your knowledge and skill of your trade. Your are truly a CRAFTSMAN. Too many in the trades today just don't have the dedication and pride in the results of doing the best job they can. I am a 74 year old retired military and electrician and not easy to hand out praise just to make someone feel good. You SIR, again, are a CRAFTSMAN. Thank you!

    Great video. I really enjoyed that one. I especially liked that you combined rapid video with some real time segments. I encourage you to do more of that because it helps me to learn the technique.

    I liked the face in video. It's cool to see you observing before you explain. I find it handy, actually.

  • @andrewfuhrmannscreenrepair7606

    I've spent probably the last 5 hours watching several of your videos. They all have a few things in common, hard work, good planning and prep work, great attention to detail, and a fantastic final product. I'm wanting to pour a slab for an aluminum covered porch and it's a beginner slab but it has an extreme slope on the back corner and I think after watching your videos I know what to do, but honestly after watching your videos and the incredible finishing techniques I've seen you and your crew use, I'm hoping I can replicate even a halfway decent outcome. Thanks for the great videos, I've subscribed and I think anyone who wants to learn more about concrete form work and finishing should as well!

    Another work of art on the street! Great tutorial with more bonus tips. The floating head narrator thing is pretty usual with gamer channels (to reveal the emotion behind the cussing) but not so usual elsewhere. I'm here for the content and it doesn't matter to me if you are on screen or not, it is the concrete info I'm watching for.

      Very clean work. You never disappoint.
      As for the added animation, I have to say, it distracted me. I found myself staring at you rather than your work. I prefer your traditional background narration. It allows me to really analyze the work details, as you explain it. Much like an audio tour.
      Hope you appreciate the feedback. Big fan! I especially enjoy seeing you and your sons actually build something together. A rare image these days. They will always have skills in a trade, thanks to their Father.
      That's something to be proud of, for sure.
      Be well

That was a very tidy job you carried out and I am sure, will lead to more work in the area, if it has not already happened. Nice outlook over the ocean.

Would be tempted to whip out a change order on him and charge him $ to re-do the "work" he did, but you have to be customer friendly if you want referrals and a good reputation.
    I wondered, before you explained, why the rebar was clear out at the side of the form.
