DIY Custom Concrete Stepping Stones.

DIY Custom Concrete Stepping Stones.
In this video I show how to make your own custom stepping stones, for walkways, patios or driveway.
I use Red, Amber, Blue, and Green glass and Glow Stones to embed in concrete.

Thanks for showing your techniques and talking us novices through your process. I appreciate your diy forward teaching style.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

You are so welcome!

[@Corvid-]

How bright do they actually glow in the dark? Is it noticeable?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I'll check it out tonight and take few pics

[@wcsd9577]

I like this because this is something you could do in your spare time, just do a couple at a time and before you know it you'll have made a bunch of them. That and it would be a fun project the kids could get involved with also.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur, a fun art project

[@RHEC1776]

Take this down..😂 my wife might see this and be like hooonneeyyy 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣🤣🤣

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I can see that happening

[@JonnyDIY]

Great job David 👍 And definitely "The Chef" for Eric. Chefs always bring the butter to the top 😁🤙

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

The Chef was really cooking

[@vantezz]

Glow stones! How long have I been waiting for this video! Thank you! At night, these stepping stones look different

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I'll check it out tonight

[@millicentsquirrelhole582]

It's true..desert folk enjoy surf music..all stoked..

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Awesome

[@warrenzebon3849]

True artwork. Looks like Eric got the rock patting technique down considering how consistent all of the stepping stones were after the exposure rinse. Really enjoy your videos. Your inspiring me to try some of these my self around the home. Watched to the end and wanted to see them glow in the dark.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Im going outside right now to get some photos I can share.

[@Components-qu3zs]

Watching these videos has a very positive relaxing effect on me. I will make a few of these slabs some day! 😂

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Right on GL

[@LauraWiatrek]

how long did you wait to take off the frame to where the stones stayed in their shape? also, I want to make numerous stones like these, various shapes and sizes and make a walkway with them. can i "connect" them with concrete, will it all "stick" together and not crack apart? I was thinking of this: frame the walkway, pour an inch or so of cement, place the decorated stepping stones on top of the poured concrete, fill in the gaps and sides with cement. Will this work?

[@AraCarrano]

Cooks work for the chef.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Good point

[@MasterGriff1]

Who’s old man winter in the back?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

That's pops

[@konakaffe]

The chef tastes the food as he prepares it to make sure of quality, but the cook skips this step because he is unconcerned with how it turned out.

[@bjones8354]

They look great! Thumbs up to Eric! I really like the way you built the wood frame. Very simple and easy pettern.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Thank you very much!

[@jasonhughes3748]

😮😢 didn’t get to see the glow stones at night… however really interesting idea to use all those colour contrasts! Looked really awesome 🤌👏 Dave you also explain in way that provides great information and not overwhelming to understand!! 🙏 😊

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Thank you! Cheers!

How much you pay the guy in the robe and slippers? I finally found something I can do better than you guys😂

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Good idea

[@timcootes]

We are very interested to see these slabs in the dark please

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I'll take a few shots tonight.

[@dskains]

Dave, I had a guy put sealer over a Saltillo patio before the grout dried and it smeared with the sealer. Is there a way to remove the sealer so the area can be cleaned and re-sealed??

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Stripper

[@dskains]

@@OdellCompleteConcrete thanks!!

[@WMAC_Master]

one thing about living in the desert is you can do just about anything big and no one would care

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur

What’s with the guy in the dressing gown in the middle of the day? 😂🤣

That's my dad from. Across the street7

glad I found this channel because I've learned tons thus far💯

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Welcome aboard!

[@johnfry9010]

Eric is doing well but he has an excellent instructor !

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

The Chef is coming along nicely, and if all else fails I'll get a grill going onsite.

[@LauraWiatrek]

could a metal tool work as well as the wood tool?

[@rusosure7]

I spent a year in education. When I was done, I had finished kindergarten. Any competency in one day cannot be expected, after all, it takes the best professionals many years to become top notch.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur TY

[@gearow13]

To be honest with you, Eric needs more vibration at the wrist and he needs to work it out a little bit more so a little bit more practice will do the trick. But besides the point... you guys rocked it.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur TY

[@MrKotobek]

Mr. Odell, impressive work. Tell me how long after inlaying stones do you use water wash?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

As soon as you can't trowel it anymore.

[@mattpascualjr.2710]

I’m going to try this for sure. Just one question. Do I need to put in some kind of reinforcement in the forms? Like wire or rebar.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

No steel needed

[@TheObSeRvErTheObSeRv]

A CHEF gives orders................A COOK does the WORK. I HOPE THAT HELPS.!....;-)

😥 You didn't show the Glow in the dark stones!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I see it it every night. But hard to capture on camera

Eric caught on quickly! Great teacher might have a little to do with it. Thanks to both of you!

Our pleasure!

You missed the best part for me, which would have been how they glow at night. All around a good job though, as usual

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I'll post the night pic in the community
