For a materials list on the blog post, visit bit.ly/2LWTyJV Thanks for watching, what you like to me make with these?
Try an accent wall maybe, with a framed picture and lights.
I hate ask cause I live Canada and I was wondering where could a person buy them plastic molds at,Cause a lot of the things I sees here on the net you can't get in Canada cause it not sold here UNLESS you PAY EXTRA AMOUNT OF $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to get it.
This is pretty cool I also did it with banana leaves 😁 also have been told no home from me 😭😭😭 just don't want to live anymore now 😭😔
Pillars, with light at top. Like u see at end of housing driveways
DIY Creators did you give permission for another channel to use your videos? I dont know if you know but there is a diy Creator latino. Its your videos but in Spanish
Not only in this video but in every one. I find really cool that you show and explain your mistakes so nobody makes the same. Great video by the way
Thank you, I am here to help, this is my passion and I am thankful to have the opportunity to share what I am experiencing.
@@DIYCreators 👍👍👍
That is pretty awesome. You're not afraid to admit your mistakes. It's a lesson you learn and one we can avoid.
I hate it when everyone edits their's out. They want you to think that they are perfect. But we all know that even the one's who have been building for 50 years, still makes mistakes.
Completely agree with you. It's great seeing the process and good to know what to avoid doing.
Hey bud a few tricks to help you out with this.
1. Try using the rapid set flow control as well, you will get a much more fluid consistency for pouring out.
2. At the color to the water before mixing the cement, you will get a much more consistent color
3. Use a brush across the top to give a rough texture, this will help you bond to another surface during install creating more surface area for your mortar or adhesive to bond too.
Good video though
2. With rapid set you often times do not have to mix it well enough it is much better to mix color in the water prior to powder.
3. While trying achieve the best bond you must have a rough or textured surface on both the stone and substrate
I’ve been a mason for 15 years I’m just trying to help out and not argue with a (TH-cam mechanic)
adding color to the water wouldn't apply here because he did more than one shade so less trouble, time and containers this way, most should understand but always good to hear from an expert...thanks!
This is a color test and how to on a smaller scale. if you are doing a project you will be pouring solid colors from a single bag not several colors from a bag
@@medaw1987 yeah but if you want to start with original then the water has to be added without color first and no one wants to mix several small portions.
Again I’m giving my expert advice I work with cement everyday and have done so for longer than a decade. I’ve used powder colorants liquid colorants oil based stains and water pasted stains. I’m not here to argue with (TH-cam mechanics) or weekend Pinterest warriors. Take my advice or don’t you do what you want you tube viewers
Brother, you know why you relate to so many of us? Not only do you explain projects thoroughly, but you scraped up the cement that spilled over. That's like many of us that don't want to waste anything. Thank you for being real.
I love it! I had to fix some steps for my aging parents so I did some practice with different types of con concrete. In the past few weeks I’ve spent all my free time playing with molds or building mini rock walls. The stuff is inspiring once you get comfortable because there are so many possibilities.
Glen, you great work has inspired me from day 1, your work is the utmost art.
GREAT JOB 👍!!! I'm a contractor and I will definitely be using this idea, I'm a subscriber and thanks a lot.
Dude, I really like the projects you do. You have a creative mind. Thanks for posting.
Great looking stones. I found by spraying the mold with cooking spray the blocks release easier. Thanks for another project idea.
I used cooking spray when I made my concrete countertops, along with charcoal coloring, just as he did. When I un-molded the slabs the cooking spray had some kind of strange reaction with the concrete because it gave it a marble-like look. Light and dark areas. Purely unintentional but looks great! Sometimes our best results come from our mistakes!
@@ggumfory are you sure it was the cooking spray and not your colorant? I've been making flower pots and large planters and would love to get a marble-ized finish.
@@jcrefasi1 To be honest, I'm not sure why it made the pattern it did. It's just that the pattern looks like where the spray pooled. I mixed the concrete with a concrete mixer so the color was well blended. Shortly after, I made a smaller countertop, forgot to apply the cooking spray, and it didn't make any kind of pattern. Just smooth and uniform. Who knows!
@@ggumfory sounds like the spray to me
@@ggumforyThanks!! it sure sounds like the cooking spray. I normally work with it as a release for my hypertufa flower pots. I want to experiment with color for a countertop reno
Sweet, thanks for this, came up in my feed after I did some searches for other DIY videos and I am very happy I checked it out. This is a project were thinking of doing in the near future.
Having worked in the stone veneer industry, a trick to make the flat dry stack look more natural is to paint the mold before pouring the mix. The mold we use were made of urethane. The even solid color in the ones in the video are good if they are going to be painted thoroughly, but for a real stone look, I would recommend trying a cement mix coloring. Grays, blues and some browns for a slate look with a rusty sediments. I really like your videos. Keep them up!!
Thank you very much for this video ! Your step by step took the mystery out of creating my own stacked stone peices ! Many ideas for this fall/ next spring for a wall around a fire pit as well as a few projects around my home and the garden beds !!
Great job, Glen! It’s been awesome watching you and your channel grow over the years!
Great video, you are articulate, informative, and make me believe this is definitely do-able for someone with beginner skills like me!
man you are the best ...whatever you do is just like a class... amazing job ..... always
Thanks for the video. Been looking at those same forms but couldn't tell what they were like from the pictures. They look like they came out well. This has helped a lot.
AWSOME video! So well explained, right down to why you should wear a mask! SO important! Thanks so much!!!
I love the white ones, love how they turned out. Makes me want to do accents of the outside of my house in it.
One word ...WOW
this looks legit AF. So creative. I love that you can reduce your cost per tile going this way. I’m going to try this one
What a cool and creative project! My inspired wheels are spinning. These would look great on an outdoor fireplace. So many possibilities!
Awesome... I want to see this once done and installed on something..
Try dusting the molds with colored release powder. It should add neat highlights to it. Butterfield has a nice selection
wlehtola
Accurate!! We did that with a fireplace install. It looked great!
Excellent presentation my Man. Your vid's are exceptional at teaching. You have the gift!
That stone looked really cool. Thanks for sharing that with us. I'm looking forward to seeing the projects you will do with these in the future.
Finally. Something I feel I can actually make.
Thanks for sharing, saw this on Reddit, hope you get a bunch of subs coming your way, I'm one of them.
Which subreddit?
Nice video, thank you for the information. Gives me some ideas. All the best.
Cool project. I'll have to try this one out.
Proud of you bro. I wish I had the time and space to do what you do!
I knew a guy who made the bricks for his own house from clay.
It's more like an enjoyment project other than cost or time saving.
It's better for the environment too
Great video. I'd seen a number of different forms, but the "stacked stone" is by far my favorite. This stuff would make a gorgeous facade for a tiny house, a fence, or any number of projects. With a little "doctoring" to the form before pouring a mottled appearance can be had. Grey with bits of lighter grey or reddish, with striations of beige, just like we see in nature. Two thumbs up!
great video from the best channel on utube. you hit this one out of the park. thank you and keep up the good work
I respect this youtuber a lot
Not only he gives out his own skills and ideas freely but he explains all of the steps and gives enough information for the audience to understand what he is talking about. He is very kind to his subscribers and his voice is just beautiful too. This dude literally has gods hands 😂😂. I love your vids😀😀
That was awesome, thanks for making the video! I think these would be great around raised bed gardens.
Amazing! I look at these everytime I go to a home improvement store.
Thank you my friend for helping for helping this old dog new tricks.
I bought the molds online but didn't had a clue of how to make it.
Like you, i already have a thousand ideas in my head, good work buddy!
Man! really nice job! They came out great... you always seem to make me go spend money tho! Lol
Thumbnail looked like vanilla ice cream. I've never clicked so fast!! I like these stack stones!!
Wow, those turned out amazing!👍🏼
Make some grooves on the back, it will help them to bond to the surface you are putting them on. 👍💪😎
Try setting the mix partially blended before it's a solid color. I'd like to see what that looks like.
Dude! The gray came out so awesome. Thanks for the video my Brother⚒️
The way you say "colors" is so adorable!
1:30 mark HEY that looks like your wife's salad bowl and fav spoon!! Boy you're busted now!! lol I enjoyed the video.
Lmao
Is you want your cement to set quicker, add salt (NaCl)
An Amazing video which is what I have come to expect from you folks!!! You always do an amazing job in your content and was glad to see this project pop up in my feed!!
THANK YOU for all your helpful, step by step DIY videos! 👍 👍👍
I don't know why am I watching this but this is hell cool
are you going to do a video about how to lay the stacked stone?
Even with the amount I would need and the time it would take it still seems way more cost effective to do it on your own, the pre made veneer is so expensive , thanks for the video i didn’t even think this option was available , love your videos and thanks for all the tips.
I love this and will try it on a new flower bed that I'm working on. Great job showing how to color the stones to make them customized for different needs. Thanks for the help!
A Layne Hi! In my channel I designed a house of 5x5 meters
Next video, how I installed stacked stone on the exterior of my house.
Sawzall without a blade can be used to vibrate the cement.
palm type orbital sander works well also.
Or a vibrator.
I wasn’t expecting much. I was surprised. Great job!
Great video need a DIY Grill with rotating BBQ pit, & pizza oven.
Yeah that's what I'm thinking
What did he mix to come up grey and natural colour?
Take old motor oil and grease inside of mold for easy release....motor oil is the best thing to use any time you make a mold or form for any type of concrete job.
Wrong, pro's use diesel fuel or kerosene. It is way cheaper
@@jamesmcdermott5048 did you say what pro's use because its cheaper? Sir are you dumb, old oil don't cost you a thing. You must of missed that part of the key word OLD. I had no clue they had a very expensive motor oil called OLD oil. You probably have never even done anything with concrete....go sit down pro thx!
Hi! Thanks for the video. An advice to remove all the air bubbles is to spray a mix of water and isopropyl to the mould prior to pouring your material, allowing perfect flow as the surface tension in the water is changed.
Wonderful Video wish you had this one last year when I did my Bro-in-laws basement bar but now thanks to you I have even more ideas!!!!
Would I glue these to some cement blocks for a wall? Or to wood for a planter?
You set them with mortar just as you would any stone or brick. You could use a construction adhesive as well. Your backing could be drywall, wood sheeting, or madonary.
I’m doing this now. I wish I would have seen this before I bought a couple boxes of airstone. Do they make corner molds?
Should be prety easy to filk the corner with cement since that what its made of
That is amazing.
Hello from England I’ve just subscribed.
FML. Literally had pavers delivered to my house today. But I will definitely be trying this out for future projects! Thanks so much!
I would do a fire place and cover it with that. 😘
Wonder if you could airbrush/spray paint some details
They are usually stained. People that do floors have colors on the internet just for cement. I don't know if they stain them on the top or the cement it's self. Painting the outside of them, they would fade over time. The stain and sealer works just for the cement.
Those look awesome Glen, nice job! 😍👍🏻👊🏻
This is absoluty brilliant. Thanks for sharing!!
Would using something like this be appropriate for exterior works such as the foundation of a house or making concrete steps looks nicer?
This seems like a.oretty fun project. How heavy do the blocks end up being?
I would like to know as well. My foundation below my siding looks barren
I'm curious as well
Bela, that is what I am doing. The cost for siding is way too much, so I am doing this. $2,000. over $30,000. sounds like a good deal to me. I think about 5-8 lbs they should weigh.
inspire734 please share your experiences and maybe even a video :)
Can the forms be purchased at Home Depot or Lowe’s
no
This is a great way to save money versus buying them. Thanks for the video and I know what I'll be doing next weekend.
Great video. Thanks for posting it. I didn't know forms like that were available. Turned out very nice looking pieces. If you use them in a project I'd love to see it.
A couple drops of dish soap in a sprayer with water sprayed and excess wiped off will help it pop alternatively you can put a tiny hole in the mold and blow compressed air to bond break it tape it up for future casting. Look into dry brushing paints to give it depth and texture, model makers will have simple tutorials on the process. I'd recommend going to your garden section of your big box store and finding some 5mm boxed mesh to insert into it just like the back of real stack stone. It will strengthen it if your laying near vibration also throw a quick sealer onto if it's going outside.
Why didn't you put metal or plastic tie ins in the back of the mold? Seems like it would make them far easier to srcure to your surface.
Sorry for silly question but what's a tie in?
@@TheVanderfulLife They are pieces of wire or plastic tgat are embedded in the wall and connect to anything placed on the surface. in case of an earthquake, they "tie" the surface stone or mortar to the wall. TGAT ensures the surface stone does not detach and kill someone by falling in them.
@@palipali4264 They are not part of manufactured stone that I've seen. What is missing that retail stones have is texture. He needed to drag fine tooth trowel or other item across the back to create more surface area for better adhesion.
@@curtisbme Thank you. That actually makes sense. I just see so many of them falling off after a few years. I assumed it was because they were not properly tied into the wall or that the adhesive got infiltrated with moisture. Makes me wary of using such products.
Excellent job and video. I am about to build a bar and was just looking at these Stones two days ago. The prices are not great on some of the higher end ones and not so terrible on the lower-end ones. Locally for me it's about $4.50 per square foot for the mid grade ones. But I really like the idea of being able to select my own mold and stylings and colors. As always, excellent job on the video and explanations. Thank you.
Any video from Glenn gets my thumbs up, even before I see it. Never been disappointed.
Considering the price of the molds this would require a bigger job to make it worthwhile
a light coat of mold release will help with the removal from the molds. A light coat of cooking spray works wonders as a mold release.
Looks good and a lot less expensive than buying the stones.
some stones have a top lip to help seal. they'll sometimes have metal or other material to strengthen it. they'll also have a few dozen more molds so you dont see a pattern as quickly.
They turned out great! I used plaster of paris for my angel molds. I may try it with these for an accent wall. Thanks!
Seriously man, you do great work.
Cool project. Would be nice to see a price breakdown though.
60-70$ for 9 molds and cement depends on where u live .. where i live the bag u see in the video is around 1-5$ here
@@AliYassinToma he states in description that he used Cement All. Its $22. For a 55lb bag at Home Depot.
@@jcrefasi1 goddamn that's a ripoff lol
Need a form that has a cut out on the ends of one and is extended on the other so they can lock together otherwise you are going to get an ugly seem.
Definitely need cover mold
Precious. Thank you.
Greetings from Portugal.
That helps me a lot. I’m just now mixing my wood working with concrete. Thanks. Keep it up
Came for the DIY, stayed for them eyes.
JK
I wish to be such a handy craftsman one day :)
Calm down sir!
I SEE you have an interest in ocular prosthetics.
Spray silicone. Cement would've been easy to pop out👍
Great video, you can spinkle multi dry colored powders in the mold like the ones they broadcast on slabs right before they put the rubber stamps down, this will give you a multi color variegated look.
Eine tolle Idee, aber bei größeren Mengen sehr zeitaufwändig. Danke für das Video :)
So jetzt nochmal auf Englisch damits auch jeder versteht :)
Good idea but imagine how many bags of cement you need if you want to do a complete wall
Yes! MAGA!
@@redcatsassociate lol
Scratch some grooves in the back of the stones while still wet...thank me later
Great idea
Great video -- going to remember this for future yard projects.
I couldn’t click subscribe fast enough. After I watched the floating shelves one, I was impressed. You describe so good step by step. Please! Keep making videos!
I always wanted to watch a guy with an accent build an accent wall
But, maybe it's you with the 'accent'? Ever think of that?!
This vid is perfect. I totally get how to do this in under 5 minutes! Thanks for posting this.
They came out fantastic. I really like the dark grey
👍Thank you for the demo and links . Great info. !
Thanks for sharing this, will sure try it out. I'm ur biggest fan.
Looks fantastic. Like the different tones and textures .
WOW, never thought to make my own molds .. great idea !! will defiantly have to give this a shot!!!
You are simply awesome. From start to finish performance and instructions professional and clear instructions. 🔎 bravo.
Man, you do a great informative breakdown and you have some wicked cool ideas keep it up.
Looks a lot better than I expected
