I haven't heard anyone say "tenny shoes" in decades. Thanks for the nostalgia Leroy lol.

[@ricbailey170]

They are sneakers anyway.

[@MikeDayConcrete]

Looked like the concrete was kinda 🔥

[@emilyhsmith]

Leroy is right! Boots are not shoes, they're boots! I really like the guitar at 7:34, gettin it good. Stay safe!

[@sigdetcdr]

Ha! Fun as always. So it’s like every flavor of soft drink in Texas is referred to as a coke.

[@grandpalarry7776]

Boots, shoes, flip-flops, sneakers, etc are all FOOTWEAR.

[@davidmesser8619]

I am really impressed with the high speed 48" finisher. From a distance that concrete really shined. Good show today Erik. Take care my friend. Vaughn

[@fredericrike5974]

As you know, Erik, I'm a plumber- I've stood out in the middle of many concrete pours, but that hardly makes me an expert. I know that must shock you, seeing as how there are so many experts commenting on You Tube, but, alas, it's the truth! I know how the math works to compute the volume of the concrete, I damn sure know how to multiply man hours and crew hours and all like that- but I have to admire how you always have that extra dollar to assure the highest quality- not sometimes but every time. Love that attitude- I'm thinking the guys that work the 'crete for you like it too, 'cause I'm sure it makes it easier for them to turn out a top job. You don't let your clock jitters leak out on the crew either- you make a plan and work the plan, usually with a bit of slack for the bozo that gets his fool concrete truck lost on the way! Up to your spec- awesome!

[@erici8750]

Nice job bro! Have you ever checked out west coast custom concrete? I think you too are the only real concrete guys on KZbin

[@sabasmendez-perez8560]

You have to check out Mike day concrete but yes they are both knowledgeable

[@erici8750]

@@sabasmendez-perez8560 I think I have seen him. Is he the guy that pours concrete that is piss wet. I don't think he owns any equipment. He's more of a laborer.

Every time you need quality you start that business. It looks like you need to start a reliable concrete business.

[@ramongarcia8044]

Another great project .Maestro Erick

[@jaxturner7288]

You gotta tear the bags open, otherwise you end up with a plastic bag twisted up somewhere in your mix. I learned the hard way when a corner of cement fell out of the driveway when I removed the forms, what do you think was the culprit? A twisted up plastic bag with a handful of dry fibers right there sticking out of the corner where the piece separated from. Stupid mistake I’ll never do again.

[@newholland68]

I drive a mixer, the bags of fiber we use dissolve very quickly when they get wet. You can spray them with water and they will fall apart in your hands

[@TrailTrackers]

That finish looks fantastic; like glass. Great job.

[@86OEd]

Excellent...enjoy watching!

[@ReaperOperator]

Yall do good work.

[@ronsimpson143]

Do you charge the concrete company for them being late and costing you unplanned labor overhead?

Some concrete finishers use bags of calcium flakes that they'll dump into a load of concrete but of course the customer just bought that load without any warranty from the concrete supplier.

Holy cow you’re back.

Haha, I agree with Leroy. Just like when you say to a waiter that you want a coke but specify that you want a Dr. pepper.

[@JohnSmith-jp6sc]

Boots, Shoes, you two Goofballs!

[@stevemazz3121]

Being a Concrete Contractor is an interesting job.... You are working with another companies product that you really have no control over how it is made, or when it will be delivered, but you are responsible for how it hardens and the finish. PLUS I have to agree that pour concrete in Texas heat can be a little trying.

[@CerretaniOutdoorsLLC]

I put in all my contracts we are the installers not suppliers No responsible for cracking, discoloration all of our pour methods are to the ACI standard

[@Ding_Bat]

If boots were shoes, they wouldn’t be called boots. If I type “shoe” on my phone, I get this emoji: 👞 If I type “boot” on my phone, I get this emoji: 🥾 Unequivocal proof... 😂😂😂

[@AlMai222]

Just wondering, how come they didn’t open the bag and pour the fibre in the truck. Wouldn’t you get remnants of bag in the cement

Where do you buy your day one

I was wondering if you ever use water reducer admixtures in hot days instaed of water?? If so how much do you add per yard of admixture? It would be awesome if you could shine some light on it for me haha thanks

How about Shoe horn or a Boot horn. They are different. lol

[@joeconner9801]

Used day 1 for first time yesterday. We always jitter bug. We didn’t since we had the day one. The float closed it up really nicely, but I didn’t like that it didn’t finish like I normally have with the bug. Do you find that the mag vibe pushing the rocks now as well as the bug? I’m trying to stop bugging. But I want the rocks down. I didn’t feel like day 1 did that for me.

[@davidneufeld8389]

Just try out the vibrascreed it does the bugging job perfeckly and you screed just standing straight

[@joeconner9801]

@@davidneufeld8389 I thought about that. But 90% of my pours are not level. We do a lot of patios Parking areas. Driveways. All with falls. I’ve asked another KZbin concrete man about that and he’s saying he only uses the vibe screed on lvl pours

[@davidneufeld8389]

On a little bit of slop it doesnt matter but if its a lot it sags

[@steel7302]

what is the deal with concrete providers in texas dont you have to prepay for concrete first? seems like to me if you pay everything in advance you should be getting good and timely service.

[@tmgreenweenie]

Leroy would be correct. Boots are footwear as are shoes but they are not the same thing.

[@stoneinthefield1]

Fiber should just be standard practices. I cant see why that minimal cost of adding fiber is not just done anyway.

Get a little shooting practice in! Limestone is calcium carbonate.

[@kendavis8046]

Wearing tennis shoes or boots, your feet are technically "shod". You are both correct by my arbitration! No winner or loser in that argument, though I might comment on why the topic arose, but that would be judgemental! All that aside, thank you once again for demonstrating how to do actual stuff, and thumb is, as always, up. EDIT: You would not want to be in the field of the pour wearing only tennis shoes, so I may have to reevaluate my opinion.

[@fredericrike5974]

Wouldn't you want cement overshoes for that?
