This is EXACTLY what I am trying to have done in my yard for a tool shed kit. Been looking for over a year, and haven't found a single contractor who ever came out to see and give a quote, that ever called me back. Seeing, this, I believe I could do it myself. Thanks David!!

I got to say personally that thing looks like more work than a wheelbarrow.

Thanks for making the effort to help someone seeking work. I've been hooked on your channel since I found it a week ago. There's allot of concrete videos, but your channel is different and that's because of you Sir. You're a problem solver, a man with vision, you're an artist and you are a great ambassador for the concrete industry. I really like how you take the big problems head-on and don't settle until your vision is accomplished. Great channel - God bless you Sir!

And to add icing on the cake, if you add a couple of ducts, (prior to concrete, )coming up vertical from outside to inside the base, you can thread up electric etc inside the shed without external wire showing ! Nice job.

Thanks for mentioning People Ready.
As a small contractor business is good to know.
When paying top buck to finishers you should have them tool in the control joints to minimize over night cracks

Thanks

Thank you Dave to you and all your crew!!! I would like to try my hands at building my own personal storage shed ( potentially a 5 x 10 size); this video will help guide me to achieving my goal of building my own storage shed….please continue to do more of these types of videos Dave.

I was a little disappointed not hearing you say 50% horsehair/50% nylon but then you totally redeemed yourself at the end 13:50 with, "Look at that wood grain finish, that's a masterpiece." Haha, you are the best, love you David :)

I had to build a cement pad for my dog’s 8’ x 30’ ft kennel run. That was a lot of work for one guy, and the cost could have been hard to handle at that time in my life. SO, I used pop cans I had save up as fillers. I’d lay a few rows of cans with 2-3 inches of space in between, then cement between. Then finished off with a couple inches over the whole top. No cans showed (except for the little 8 inch square to prove I used the cans. That was 25-30 years ago, still good as new. I did fill one 4’ x 8’ section with gravel for poop n pee. A great little condo inside, and my spoiled doggers were in heaven (and safe).

After not being able to get a contractor to do a 20x24 pad, I decided to do it myself. I mean, I’ve watched all your videos, so I think I got it.
Wow, never again. You make it look easy. 😂 The concrete truck driver helped me screed and level the pad. So I gave them a nice tip.

Always happy to see hard-working tradesmen employed building the USA.

Love that you're always trying / using innovative, labour-saving tools and methods. Smart.

Hi! George here, plaster master. I hope to learn enough and gain enough anti-procrastination juice to actually pour this. Lol nice! I definitely need a slab for tools I allow to be taken advantage of by the sun. Good job guys and thank you again

[billmiller]

Nice job and I’m glad to see that you take pride in your work!

Nice work Odell and crew! Cool wheel barrow.
When I’ve been part of concrete testing, I checked slump indirectly with a Kelly Ball and have seen others measure slump more directly with a cone but you Sir made the shortest work of that I’ve ever seen with just an eye ball.

Hello from Europe, Romania. I love your videos, very instructive. Thank you

[youfritter]

seeing these experts at work has convinced me to leave this to the pros lol

[fg]

Yeah! People Ready! Ive worked through them off and on for about 4 years👍...Good Job Odell keep up the awesome work🤙

I saw my house in that video! I thought it was you guys doing that job, mostly because I thought I saw your blue shirt. I meant to stop by and have you come by my house to check out the pavers, seating area, stucco and firepit that I learned mostly from your videos. I just never saw you guys there when I was coming and going. Maybe next time!

I didn't know how I love watching concrete videos until I saw this.
