I do my own bids, I run my own machines, I pour my own concrete, I set my own forms. Whether its 1000 yards or 4 yards. Ive worked around the world everywhere in US from east coast to west coast. Hand curb is by far the toughest thing to master and ive mastered it completely. Theres guys out here that do some beautiful work, But theres also guys out here who take credit for people doing beautiful work and they dont do shit. The west coast is full of egos and it needs to stop. Not one finisher on west coast does things the way east coast does and vise versa. There is alot of inexperienced guys particularly 1 on youtube who calls himself the best and does none of the work.

I don’t know any 1 of them that will ever say they would still do it that way. After knowing the consequences of that way. I really am only trying to help, not hate at all. I wish there would have been some elders back then telling me this stuff. Problem is that we didn’t have the equipment and tech you all have to do day.
