THE STAMP I USED : amzn.to/4eSsINj

[@seanweithers958]

Hi, where did you get the release powder ?

[@willellis4733]

Ive been in the concrete industry 17 years, and you are right concrete is forgiving. Grrqt job for your first time!

[@dcwoodworks]

Thanks so much! So many people in the industry were so rude on my IG comments. as if I was a professional. I appreciate it!

[@colleencarter1977]

F them! They’re just rude and mad that people like you exist & have enough courage to try doing it yourself vs hiring them… 👍

[@dcwoodworks]

I did a second concrete project! This time its stairs, Let me know what you think! Who knew I would like concrete so much kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3TTiKiVarFqe9ksi=edzg8fNLzfhH0_3v

[@byronlaw6724]

Been reviewing videos for something on stamping concrete and yours is the first to actually get in to the details of the How-to. Thanks.

[@dcwoodworks]

Thanks I really appreciate that! I was trying to find something in depth, and I couldn’t find anything so I figured I would be the one to make the video haha

[@dcwoodworks]

Heres my second concrete project! Who knew concrete would be so satisfying lol kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3TTiKiVarFqe9ksi=edzg8fNLzfhH0_3v

[@davecruz9893]

You realize you explained this process better...than most concret professionals. I have been in the building industry for over 35 years.....They just dont know that simple is the best way to teach....GREAT JOB....ABSOLUTELY

[@dcwoodworks]

Aw thanks that means a lot!! I found it SO HARD to find anyone on here that explained it slowly with all my questions so I’m glad people are really noticing and learning from my experience!!

[@Macsaucej]

Its because the professionals dont want you to know how easy it is, so they can charge more $$

[@dcwoodworks]

@@Macsaucej facts lol. Someone once asked me why I "tell trades secrets online" and my response was "There are two types of people in this world. Those people who will NEVER diy it and always pay. and those who will never pay and always DIY" like myself.

[@dcwoodworks]

If you liked this one, I just posted my latest video but I formed up concrete steps instead. I love how they turned out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3TTiKiVarFqe9ksi=edzg8fNLzfhH0_3v

i did the diy for my front and driveway. first timer and it turned out so great - just wait till you flirt with the stains and sealers - loved it

[@dcwoodworks]

I am planning to stain it in the next month or so when the weather gets nicer here in Canada. What colour did you go with?

[@dcwoodworks]

I still havent stained yet but I really want to. What color did you use? Here is my newest video of concrete! its stairs! Let me know what you think kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3TTiKiVarFqe9ksi=edzg8fNLzfhH0_3v

I’m attempting to make a plan on how to tear out my 80y.o. Broken, slanted driveway and replace it in a cost efficient way. Your video has given me the confidence to start with the garden path as a tester!! My husband and I bought a 1943 craftsman in the PNW. I would LOVE to do beautiful wood grain stamps for the driveway.

[@salman1949]

I totally beleive in it and admire the lady for her confidence and courage. I did a little bigger area but concrete delivered was already dry and non moveable the ready mix took money in advance and left us high and dry. I made a loss on that project of my family freind took responsebility and paid 4k from my pocket. Now i had the same plan as this lady,i am 75 but not giving up i will do my house aroundfront and back and i am pretty sure it will turn out good and if there are minor imperfection do not care its your own job no one should look through microscope

[@ryansnitker941]

Good video! I own a concrete construction company, and we do lots of decorative construction. I highly recommend ordering the concrete from a plant for most any decorative concrete. It’s definitely higher quality concrete. A little more expensive, but for stamped concrete, it’s worth it.

[@dcwoodworks]

Thanks! I totally agree now that I’ve done it. We want to extend the walkway and I will absolutely be ordering it this time.

[@exanime]

Awesome video... I am planning something similar (steps not a walkway but basically the same) and I have 1 critical question. From the moment the concrete is ready for stamping, how long do you have to work it? I'm hoping to be able to order the concrete truck for the pour but I am a bit concerned I won't have enough time to stamp all steps before the concrete gets too dry

[@dcwoodworks]

I wish I had a better answer as this was my concern also. My walk way is about 30 feet long and 3 feet side. I probably could of skipped mixing the concrete myself and got a truck but I wouldn't go further then that unless you have more stamps. Some videos i've seen, they use 4-5 stamps at a time and it moves MUCH faster then with only one. all in all I had about an hour of good working time, I could of pushed that to 1.5 hours. the concrete just starts to set up and you have to be more agressive hope that helps!!

What Is the powder that you used before stamping?

[@dcwoodworks]

It’s called concrete release agent. It’s tinted and will color the concrete. And also release the stamp

[@nambui4831]

Quick question, for the 2x4 where you use for the end piece, do you take that out the 2x4 before you pour the new section, or you left it in and pour over it?

[@dcwoodworks]

take it out! Use the hardened concrete in place of the 2x4.

[@dcwoodworks]

are you going to pour your own??

[@geraldmcneal7110]

Quest without using cement rebar/remesh chairs when you push down with the shovel you just pust down the wire mesh now you have to repull up the wire? Or you not going all the way down with shovel? I think getting the cement chairs would needed important for Ned to big jobs or iam wrong and not needed

[@geraldmcneal7110]

Wait, they sell mixer blade that attached to drill or inpack drivers. When I install a Final fence on the post I needed cement I use they mixer that around $12 mixed up the cement with easy like butter

Hi, how did you create the curving formwork , where your path turns 90 degrees in a curve?

[@dcwoodworks]

I used 3/8 thick ply wood so its extremely bendable. but you can also use regualr ply wood but you have to cut a ton of relief cuts in it for it to bend. use thin ply, its the easiest, just brace it a lot

Can do this on old concrete walkway without moving the old surface ??

[@dcwoodworks]

This is a question. I’ve been asked a lot. And although I don’t know the true answer from a professional. I do think it’s possible. What I would do first make sure that there are no visible signs that the ground beneath the existing concrete walkway is giving away or shifting Second, I would absolutely poor 3 inches or more of concrete over the top . And I would also probably double the rebar that’s it. don’t skip your relief cuts either in case it ships and cracks. It will crack in those joints. I hope that helps Maybe someone else can chime in if they’ve done this??

[@Frxstynah]

I've used a pitch fork to consolidate along the edges and release air bubble 😅 use whatever you got 😊

[@dcwoodworks]

Gotta get it done!! 💪🏽

[@HappydudeGenX]

can you put concrete on top old old cracked concrete?

[@dcwoodworks]

I wouldn’t and I don’t think you’re supposed to. It’ll eventually shift and crack the new concrete

[@turquoisealmy9750]

That looks really good

[@dcwoodworks]

Thanks so much. I’m glad you like it!!

[@fredr.5723]

You just got a sub!!!! Great job! Problem Can’t find the skins on Amazon Well at least the one or similar to the one you are using. Maybe a brand? Would help? Thank you again God bless!

[@dcwoodworks]

Thanks for subbing!! I cant find the one I bought either.. The only thing on it is a stamp on the back that says BONWAY

[@fredr.5723]

@@dcwoodworks Thank you for the reply. I searched for Bondway concrete stamps. Found them on Amazon but not the stamp you used. What they do have is affordable stamps and rollers. Thanks again God Bless

Hi, I do my own patio and I put the stamp on it but the all concrete is dry , what can I do

[@dcwoodworks]

you have to stamp wet concrete. not dry

[@maitiu6802]

Just a simple tip! Tap the form work with a hammer 🔨 that will raise the air bubbles, and make it easier for a top finish 👍

[@dcwoodworks]

Great tip! Thanks so much. I’ve fallen in love with Concrete . So I’ll definitely be doing more.

[@missnickelbee7789]

alot of information missing, like what products did you use?

[@dcwoodworks]

Literally bags of concrete. Several different kinds of depends on what look you want

[@adamconstantine1984]

Does the ground have to be level?

[@dcwoodworks]

Not extremely. As long as is tampered down but it can go up or down a slop

[@dcwoodworks]
