Pour A Concrete Slab

Learn how to pour a small concrete slab. This is the first step in what eventually will become a small shed to house my dust collector and
some other tools. I probably won't get to building the shed until
late September early October but the weather was nice this week so I thought I'd get this part done.

The tools and products I use most frequently:

Woodworking Products:

Home/ Garden Products:

Video Production Products:

Apparel Sponosor: Mountain Khakis

Part of the beauty of this video is you showed all the steps in enough detail so a novice could understand, you didn't have unnecessary talk or background noise and you made it fun to watch. Thanks for sharing your talents.

[TheHonarable]

No talking makes this video very refreshing to watch!

[anthonycruz]

Love it. Great job. Organized, clean, no talking and straight to work.

This is like the ASMR of DIY. So quiet and soothing.

Came back to say I followed this video and made my own concrete slab, and it came out great. I have to say this was one of the most physically demanding jobs I have ever done. Each bag of cement is crazy heavy. But totally worth it!

[lianyang]

This man, earned my respect! It's not only how everything worked out, but also how you cleaned and organized your tools after using them; I also love the part you put your daughter's hand print on the slab. Great video!

[Triathlonjuggler]

Thanks for the video, now I am more willing to try a concrete slab. We need more videos like this on youtube. Simple, effective, great audio and filming, no frills, and no excessive talking :)

I love how he had his daughter put her hand print in the concrete. That's a good father right there.

[WildRunnerZ]

Anyone who’s ever done concrete like this, knows it’s a lot of work.. quick, smooth and keeping it simple is the best way to get stuff done

[analizabethdoan]

I appreciate that you didn't use expensive tools. I loved the touch with your daughter's handprint. Good dads are few and far between. Luckily, I had a great one. Thanks.

One man, down and dirty. On nice Saturday with great results and pride at the end of the day. That's what I'm talkin about .

[brianmcintosh]

I so enjoy “how to videos” where the “star” of the video isn’t trying to be a “STAR”. And with the 5 minute intros to 3 minutes of work on film. Thanks for this one. Great job.

The Daughter's Hand Print made it Really Special!!!! That's a Special Memory Right There!!!

[rlkinser]

Thank you SO VERY MUCH for not rambling on like the guys in most of these videos!

[mtadams]

I assume that young girl is your daughter which brought a tear to my eye. As a divorced father with joint custody my daughter was always with me during her younger years, wood stacking, fishing, skiing, hiking, etc. best years of my life. She is graduating this year and off to college she goes, I am happy for her and a bit sad all at the same time. They grow up so fast. Take care, great video.

Its 2 in the morning and I just watched you clean off a wheelbarrow and shovel and pick up trash. What a relaxing video, gonna sleep so well now.

[jaguiar]

The man wears a long sleeve Polo Rauphen Lauren shirt. That shirt never gets dirty..Impressive.

[DMUGLOBAL]

Great video and like someone said, no unnecessary narration, you showed how you did the job and it was easy to watch and learn from it. Also, it must be said, what a lovely looking well maintained house in a fantastic location.

[lass-inangeles]

Wow, what a great piece of work. Lack of narration, music, and all the other sensory inputs made me focus so much better on the task. I think I will buy the house next to yours and maybe in time, some of that know how will soak into my brain.
A master craftsman of the highest caliber. Truly love your work and approach!

[gtucker]

Excellent video sir. I feel more confident pouring my own small slab for a project. Thanks for the video!
