DRY POUR CONCRETE (Yes or No) Part 2 (Mike Haduck)

I am not a fan of Dry Pour Concrete, As a real cement finisher I show how to properly mix concrete by had and try to pass on the things I learned in my 50+ years of concrete work, Its all my opinion and all my videos are my ways and ideas I always suggest anyone doing any type of work to consult professional help and I suggest you do your own research.

I watch a lot of concrete videos. A LOT. This is hands down, *the best*, and most thorough, how-to video I have ever seen on concrete. Without question. And I'm only 25 minutes into it. I'm not exaggerating. This really is fantastic. The hard work that you put into this video did not go unnoticed.

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi, thanks I appreciate the kind words, Mike

[@MikeHeath]

You could argue that I have watched too many concrete videos... and I couldn't help but think the same thing. If there's one video for a concrete noob to watch, it's this one. You nailed it Mike.

[@TheKingOfInappropriateComments]

@@MikeHeath And it's so much more. It even addressed the business side which answered some questions that I had. Also the "old school method". I heard people talking about the old school way of doing things but they don't get into their mixes. I learned new things. Quite a few new things.

[@doityourselfdiva6001]

It's interesting that you say that this video is the best. It's only my second video. I'm really considering a dry pour to make my cement pad bigger. It's about 20'x15' nice size but I want a little more hangout space beside hottub.

[@MikeHaduck]

@doityourselfdiva6001 I can't tell anybody what to do I just do my hands on videos and show the results of my experience and give a honest opinion as I can, thanks Mike

[@sarahmarshall1097]

I am but a 68 year old female tackling a stoning job for the first time. I keep hearing your voice in my head saying: "See? No big deal. " You have taught me so much and I am grateful to you for taking the time to share your expertise in these videos. A master of masonry. Bless you.

[@golastname7686]

Mike Haduck--the Bob Ross of concrete. Among my favorite quotes is "They try to make a big deal out of it like you're not smart enough to do concrete, well you are smart enough to do concrete and you're smart enough to do it the right way."
I loved the demystifying teaching style: seeing limestone broken into powder with a hammer; old-school mixing of basic materials; explaining that a float is just a piece of wood--plus a handle; showing how free he was to make designs and erase them; the railroad track base; working from small to large...
Well done Mike Haduck, thanks for passing "all this stuff on"

[@ryanshaver]

"No big deal." I love this as a motto for doing concrete. Although I have to say Mike, your videos are a big deal to me. As someone just starting out, the wisdom you're passing down through these videos means a lot. I know these long videos are probably a lot to produce, so thank you!

[@MichaelSmith-hs5iu]

Hey Mike, 80 year old retired NY construction worker here. Without a doubt this is the best explanation of concrete and some of it's uses. In my early 20's as a laborer on construction my 1st experience with concrete was on the Lake Ontario intake tunnel on 9 mile one in Oswego, NY, The second big one was for the 1st stack at the Oswego, NY Steam Station (Niagara Mohawk) It is 735' tall. Took one month to pour with what is called a slip form.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Michael , I appreciate hearing that from a professional, Mike

[@BillSmith-fx7xx]

I wonder if we still have the knowledge and skilled tradesman to do those any more ? ! I marvel at the old towering stacks. And then there's the ones made of brick ! WOW ! :-0

Thanks apex,,Mike

[@jordantbaker]

Just built my first form and did my first pour ever. I leveled it by shaking a board across it just like you did, but then called it done. Because that’s all I knew. Here, three hours later, I find this video and learn that DIY concrete can be finished better, not only that, It’s probably still wet enough to do it this time! So I pause to go back and finish it proper (with a smoother board). Gonna turn out great, thanks Mike!

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Jordan, Mike

[@gordthor5351]

@jordantbaker It's actually best to do the last finishing a couple hours after it's set up more than in this video. You get it close like in the video and then wait until it's set up enough where you can trowel it perfectly smooth without getting ridges and go over it with a finishing trowel and then it can be broomed evenly with a lighter texture, which is still antislip, but looks much better and professional. Finally a once over on the edging for a perfectly even and smooth texture, for a perfect job that will last. I've never done a "dry Pour" and I never would waste my time on that backwards nonsense, but I watch a lot of videos and it certainly looks to be much more time and effort for sh!t results. It's not rocket science to pour concrete the right way. You just need to know a few key points and follow them.

[@MikeHaduck]

@gordthor5351 thanks, I agree, Mike

Your videos and old school way remind me of my father, who poured new concrete steps and sidewalks for the residents of West Conshohocken and Conshy.

So glad I found you Chanel Mike. Also thank you so much for your desire to want to pass along this knowledge that you have in masonry. I've recently been working on an inground concrete duck pond in our back yard. I'm still preparing my surfaces and ground for the pour in between the rain here in southern VA. Not a whole lot different than your situation there in PA. I'm planning on mixing my own concrete myself given I'm very close to a river and have an excellent source of river sand thats not contaminated really at all, very clean sand and not super fine like beach sand. From what I understand you use more aggregate ( sand/stone) than you do portland. So having a free supply of sand just seemed like the way to go. I've been experimenting with the Portland to sand ratio to get the most durable mix and have settled on 3 sand to 1.5 portland. I would really appreciate any feedback you could give me if we could get in contact and discuss it further that would be awsome and very much appreciated. I just want to get this right and not have to be so concerned with fixing or patching in the future. Just for reference the pond is dug to about 5.5 ft deep with a ledge at half that depth on the entire front, with an overall length of 16ft and a width of 6ft.. I really look forward to hearing back from you if you have the time. But I also understand if I don't hear back from you at all 😅 😆

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Stephen, pools are a bit different, I worked on concrete pools where they came in and blew a lightweight concrete in between the rebar and formed it with trowels as they went and pools where they mixed Portland and sand 5 sand to one potland ( if I remember correctly) tamped it with a trowel and laid a liner inside. It's a different world doing pools so it's hard for me to comment, thanks mike
