that table is awesome. I have spent a good part of my life working at a concrete plant. ever try just using mortar instead of concrete? it will help a little with the air pockets, and allow you to polish deeper without the worry of hitting the stone aggregate. Rock and sand are typically added to bulk up the cement to cut down on cost, also full strength cement is way more than anyone would need for the average house etc. also if you make the mix yourself, you can soak the aggregate in water, this will cut down on the water needed to hydrate the mix. less water equals more strength. this will also help eliminate shrinkage and cracking. also for the extra mile, you can soak the slab in water after the first couple hours of curing, the longer you keep the cement hydrated, the better it will cure.

No problem :) I've been working a lot with my dad on restoring his house, so I have a bit of construction knowledge myself. You know, the trial and error kind of knowledge ;) I'm gonna send him a link to your channel, cause he's currently working on his kitchen, where he's planning to cast a countertop. Btw, have you ever considered tiling your concrete tables? Just make them a little thinner and then tile them. With the amount of tiles available on the market, one can get quite the unique product :) I haven't checked all your videos yet as I have first found your awesome channel here by now, so Idk if you've already done it :)

Nice work. I've completed a few concrete tops and this video gave me a few new tips on a recent project. I made the first pour a little wet so it would flow better and vigorously shook the form after each addition. The following pours were dryer to compensate. No voids. For a good finish without a polisher, spray the surface with a diluted vinegar mixture and scrub by hand with a blue Scotch-Brite sponge. Rinse thoroughly. The blue sponge also works great as a sealer applicator.

Great work! Could you have imbedded bolts to the bottom of the cement slab so you could later affix it to the wood base?
@SchubertTech
@SchubertTech Жыл бұрын
That was my thought. The side you pour the cement from will be the bottom (unseen) so you could run metal wires across to suspend the bolts in the cement. I'd just a J-shaped bolt where the curved part is inside the concrete. I was thinking of doing something similar for a small table (18" wide, 12" deed and maybe 24 inches tall) but have the legs made of cement as well. I had a few ideas of either embedding rebar to do a second pour for the legs in their own mold. If you're saving money, but not time, you could reuse leg molds. Another idea if you're embedding is to imbed wet rated Romex, put in an electrical box with external power cord. Now your small concrete end table has a charging outlet you can plug into a wall outlet. In my locale, I can have 40-60mph wind gusts unexpectedly, so these are all ideas for outdoor tables that won't blow away.

Love the videos, Pete! What are some ways you'd recommend securing concrete tabletops to wooden bases? For this project it looks like you just set the concrete on the base (which seems fine since it's probably so heavy it can't move anywhere) but curious what methods you like for fastening.

the 2 tones in the crete reminds me of the samurai blade haman. it also is more natural since natural rock has strata and inclusions.. its a handy video. great idea.

Hitting your shin on this table top is going hurt like hell (it always does, but I imagine the concrete hurts more). Very jealous of your workflow. End products looks very pro.

I like it, will have to wait until the kids are older. Not a good idea for our home with the wild kids we have. The state outline is awesome.

try putting fine crushed granite on top of the wet concrete trowel it in ...until the cream of the concrete covers it slightly...then use high pressure hose ..and remove the thin layer of dry concrete....it comes out looking wonderful...used to the that on sidewalks many years ago.. great work

Great project Pete ! You got me thinking, my fire place hearth is kinda getting stained and dirty from all the coal that falls on it, because there is no sealer on it, I might just make my own like this, thanks Pete for all the great info !

For sure! Yeah I have done 4 or 5 hearths. They've worked great. You could do precast - or pour in place if it is a really big hearth. Cheers!

For de-molding its best to cut your side walls a bit longer on the ends to extend beyond the edge. In theory it should look like a pinwheel. This way you can grab the side and use it to peel off the mold without having to use screwdrivers potentially damaging the surface.
