    Just thought you had cement dust in your veins.... You have sawdust in them too! 😁
    What a nice setup in your shop with nice bench tools! Way to go! (From a remodeling contractors view)
    Nice job on the tops, can't wait to see the next video.
    The multi-skill level of all of you is awesome!! So nice in so many ways, just makes all of you more valuable to more people. 👍

    When I poured my basement walls, I lined the interior side of the forms with six mil. When I stripped the forms, the finish was shiny and smooth, except with a few wrinkles. Looks like marble.

    Why the inner perimeter of the sink and not the outer ?
    will you grind it or is the sink very thin ?

    Question about the strength: your mix is low water, 1 part Portland to 2.5 parts Sand with microfiber? That gets you to 10k psi? Is it a special cement or does the microfiber help that much?

    • @-Blick182-
      @-Blick182- Před rokem

  • @wraven7974

    Tom, with the countertops having broken stone face edges should I worry about them tearing or wearing out the fabric of my clothing? Standing and leaning against it while grilling, washing dishes, prepping food or sitting in a stool…

    That makes a good job during the slow time in the winter and great learning experience to who want to attempt some like that
    Got a question how do I measure how many bags of 80 pounds sacretemix do I need to do a footing outside wall 30 feet x25 feet 2feet wide inside the form and 4 inches thick since I don't know how to calculate it i look at it this way a bag of sacretemix is around 2 feet by 16 inches wide and around 3 and half thick came up with 84 bag so to make sure it enough I am going to buy 100 bags do you think it is about right have a great day every one

    • @Concretewiththehauses

    Another trick that might be a bit less involved than the pencil-tracing sink cutout is to "borrow" one of your wife's lipsticks - hopefully, one she won't make you sleep on the couch for doing so, ha-ha, and run it all along the edge of the cutout so that you have a decent amount of coverage. Then place the cardboard down on the sink being careful to not slide it around as you press down on it to make an outline for you to then cut out your template. Oh, and you might also want to then clean off the sink... unless you want to keep your clients guessing.

    Not sure why anyone would pour tops that way. I’ve done both and pouring in place is by far easier. No hauling heavy tops with risk of cracking. Sorry but the plastic marks don’t float my boat. Hopefully you’ll polish those out. Sorry to hate on your work
