Definitely agree on no rocks in footings. My inspector would weep openly. But some of the comments about the mudmixer being slow or "just order a truck" are misplaced. I have a Multiquip (the big gas one) and a tractor with a bucket and I've poured a lot of concrete bag to bag. The only bad pour I had came off the truck. Way too much slump and barely got it finished (badly) in time. The rest looks great and not one crack over five years. I bought this and based on experience of others I expect to pour twice as much concrete in the same amount of time. Also, I do envy folks who can apparently call up a truck and get any amount they want and pay next to nothing, but that doesn't fit any reality I'm in out here in NE Kansas. If you want to pour anything short of a big office building or large house foundation or a new stadium at the university they say (literally) "we will see if we can fit you in on that day but I don't really know, it all depends on if we have drivers and if we don't have bigger jobs, but we can try. I'll call you that day at 8:30am and let you know." Sorry. No way. Of course my multiquip is cheaper to buy but the benefits of Mudmixer are substantial and you just need to watch the many videos by small pour pros and DIYers to see that. Sold me.

The big rocks actually weaken the footing and putting those rocks on top of the rebar weakens it more - it's the Portland around the aggregate, & the concrete around the rebar that makes the footing strong. The bigger rocks have surface adhesion on a broad surface which is not as strong as surface adhesion of the Portland around 1000's of aggregate stone. If the footing cracks, as concrete often does at some point, it will be around those rocks. Besides doing concrete for years I experienced this myself. I knowingly bought a 100 yr old house that that had a crumbling foundation, but what I didn't know was they used stone and brick as fillers in the footings and stem wall and over time it broke away from the brick and stone. Finally had to have the house jacked up & have everything removed & redone (@ $40,000). Good news is concrete is much better now than it was then so he"ll probably be ok for his lifetime I think as long as he does't have much ground movement, expansion or contraction, a lot of moisture & of course the load that's put on it. If you've ever ordered concrete in a truck, you'll notice it has twice or maybe 3 times the amount of stone in it than bag concrete does. When I use bag concrete I feel like the Wendy's commercial - WHERE'S THE ROCK?!! I think for the concrete DIYers out there this mixer is the coolest thing I've seen in my lifetime. I've been looking at this for sometime now and the only 2 cons for me is the price (but you can rent) and it can't handle as much aggregate as commercial concrete has. In Okla., if you're not a existing contractor with what ever company you can't get concrete do to shortages (& they don't like messing with home owners), so for the DIY'ers, bags or custom mixing are your only option. I'm getting older now (70) & all the years of construction have caught up with me, but this looks a lot easier then moving around my much heavier mixer ( cause it to is old like me). There is no such thing as easy concrete work - you still have a lot of bending over & those bags are still heavy & getting heavier each year! One KZbinr said on his channel that the company was improving the machine so that could handle aggregate even better with out jamming the augar which doesn't happen often I assume. He did say you want to have the water running before you put your bag in & don't use the machine hose while mixing is going on - it decreases amount of water going to the mixer & changes your slump - I think that depends on your water pressure. If they could make it where it could handle a lot more aggregate, that would be the perfect machine!!! Over all this is a pretty good job & I love watching people build stuff, but if you're going to work that hard, don't cut corners - looks like maybe 6 or 8 bags more would have make up for the stone.

Thank you for your kind comment. My uncle isn't putting a big load on top of those footing so he decided to put those rocks in there even though I advised him against it. I purchased the machine and wanted to see how well it did, which did not disappoint me. I've used the regular drum mixer but that's way too much work and more people are needed to mix it so you don't wear yourself out.

Here in Australia, it is best practice where a hard surface meets another hard surface (the existing slab/concrete structure meets the new slab/footing - being poured) to put in a strip of 'Able-Flex' - which is a 10mm thick x 100mm high foam pad strip along the mating surfaces. This will allow for some movement without cracking the majority of the new job and sacrificing structural stability. Good work, it is good to see 'the man in the street' who is prepared to stump up with enthusiasm and physical effort to get a job done to their satisfaction, without relying on a (relatively expensive) building contractor. It is construction after all, not rocket science. 99% common sense. **As my mum always told me growing up, Learn to 'Do it yourself,,,,,,, Because nobody else will do it yourself!'

It sounds like you can run about a yard per hour through the machine. There's a rental place about 45 minutes from me that has one. I can get it for about $200 for a week. That should give me plenty of time to pour a decent sized shed pad. Subscribed to your channel! Looking forward to watching some more of your tractor related videos.

Concentrated cement powder is relatively expensive. The compressive strength of the concrete will be similar to rock inclusions. So try to introduce some rock to take up some of the volume. Generally cheaper, without losing out considerably on strength. Building is not rocket science. Experience and common sense is all that is required. Just think it through.

This is a perfect example of how not to pour a footing. 1st thing I noticed is as he’s spreading out the concrete it’s not level with the form. It’s not very deep and it’s certainly not very wide. Typically in the US it’s supposed to be 12” wide (I believe). Also the forms aren’t very stable. All those bags are about $4-5 each. Isn’t a cement truck cheaper? Certainly easier.

Depends, some concrete suppliers req a min load, of its a small load sometimes the call it a short load and cost more, and if the truck doesn't have access you would need a bunch of wheel barrels or contract a concrete pump. And a concrete supplier delivery is on a timer, you take to long it starts costing you for the wait time. So bag vs truck it would depend on your budget, available manpower, size of job, accessibly, and time frame.

First, buy 80-lb concrete bags, unload them, stack them up, put them in the machine, and then load the concrete left over back onto the trailer to return to the store. Too much back working for me.

You obviously need to understand the new way to do concrete work innovated by a Cajun Couple doing DIY. They invented a new dry pour method that gets rid of any need for mixing. just pour the bags and sprinkle with water and voila you are done. Work smarter not harder. LOL - sarcasm off…. Nice job doing it the right way!

Gas powered mixers are everywhere and readily available to anyone. I often use one at work and I can say for sure I could have had that mixed and finished off in an hr. And that's by myself lol. And for anyone that is interested if you would happen to purchase said gas mixer, swap out the rubber shoes on the paddles for steel shoes as they're for mortar and not concrete, the aggregate in the concrete will chew up the shoes in no time...

The costs of using pre mix cement is stupid for such a project, go and buy the raw materials and hire a cement mixer and do it, your savings will be 50% or more depending on size of project, pre mix rapid set was only meant for using around posts and such, small scale projects, not for doing foundations or large pours, using large stones in the pour isnt a good way of doing it and I would advise anyone not to do it, plus your reinforcement reo would be stronger if boxed.
