Dislikes already?? I have just come to the conclusion that some people are generally just miserable and negative. Michael great build and video. Appreciate your investments of time, money, and creativity in your videos. Keep up the good work.
The dislike mostly come from people that can't see over the fact that the sound is mono not stereo they just don't see his passion in the material or his hard work. I see it and he is totally great!!!
@@coindesigner7477 like I said to me the sound didn't matter because I always need the subtitles. Fact is that the work is one hell of good quality and that is what I like.
You are awesome Michael! I love that you can make a mistake, then laugh at yourself and leave it in the video. So much better than coming across absolutely perfect in each project--leaving the rest of us feeling inferior. We are all human. Mistakes are how we learn. :)
Thanks for sharing these! Explaining what works, what doesn’t, the things we will encounter (like bonding to surface unwittingly). Epoxy being meant for indoor use. All super duper information. You are awesome!
I Can't Help But Have A HUGE GRIN On My Face When I Watch Your videos because Thanks To You I Know I Can Do This As Well!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE TUTORIALS!!
Michael, I love the the outcome of this video, I am a Stucco/Concrete Contractor and i'm very impress with your work. There is another mortar call Arcus Stone which is a nice product but much more expensive and harder to work with, than Rapid set, i like rapid set and the work you do with this products. thank you for your time making this Video. God bless you!!
Wow Michael! Your first video is rounding in on 3 million views! You have really got talent in video making as well as all your projects. I am preparing to pour a small concrete hearth thanks to how easy to follow your videos are. My wife wants it to just be concrete while I want a little grout design in it... so I sneakily bought supplies to make two in hopes of changing her mind! The other will make a nice little bench somewhere. Thank you for all your hard work. I really hope sponsors are getting on to you! You deserve recognition for your talents.
Michael - been watching DIY and Concrete and Make it Yourself channels for years. This is one is one of the best. Sorry about your weather though. Thanks for your energy and time.
As I sit here at the Depot, patiently awaiting their opening, your next vid comes through!! Another absolutely stunning piece of work!! I am taking time off when I finish this job I’m on in Louisiana and going home to make my own concrete patio table!! You have out done yourself again, can’t wait to see what’s next!
Micheal builds, you are pretty much my hero. Thanks for the video and thanks for the comment interaction. I was going through the comments and I saw how much you respond to your fans. You are the best.
WOW Jaime! Thank you so much! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that! I try very hard to take at least an hour to an hour and a half to answer comments. I don’t get’em all but I try hehehe 👍🏻😊
Awesome work, I typically work with wood, shou sugi ban style with unicorn spit gel. Now you’ve given me different ideas with cement. Thank you for showing your beautiful work.
I haven't done anything with epoxy yet, but I can definitely see how addicting it is like you said. I like both of these benches, but I especially like the rough one & its river rocks.
This is dangerous. I just found your channel while having a cup of coffee before work. Working from home during COVID. No! No! I must be strong and turn off TH-cam and be a good little worker, and not spend all day with your inspiring how-to's!!! 5 PM seems so very far away. :) Love the 3 videos I've seen thus far. I'll be back.
I've been wanting to make some stepping stones for my yard, and I think this might be a really pretty thing to do to make some two by two squares with the river rock in them. Really enjoyed your tutorials thank you
Use a polyaspartic meant for use on garage floors to go over the epoxy . That's what I use on floors . Beautiful work . I appreciate the time you take .
I've rewatched all your videos, you need more. You're becoming my addiction I can't wait to start mine but I need to unpack in new house not watching TH-cam but I can't get enough of you. And where is this Michael Builds merchandise. I want a t shirt. 👊👍
Take the OSHA Silica PEL Certification. Teach and encourage your viewers to use these safety measures, when grinding concrete. Great job and very creative!
Oh yeah! Now we are going to have to do something like that. That's just awesome!! And congratulations on being a feature post on CTS Cement Mfg Corp/Rapid Set Facebook page. I was just amazed when they posted your concrete countertop on their October 10th facebook page. That's just totally fantastic!!!
You are an inspiration to me Miguel!!! I wish you were close to share! Sadly you have not posted new videos lately, I wish to see much more you have to show us. Take care 🤗🙏🏻
Michael great video as always. Hint: StoneCoat shows to use propane torch to remove bubbles from epoxy. Keep up the good work. Love your humor, and good videos. Thanks for your project ideas and how to make them.
Oh Noooo! How did I miss this video? I lost my father at the time of this posting. Otherwise, you know I wouldn't miss your awesome videos. Thanks for the time you put into these videos for your loyal subscribers like me. 😊 ❤🙏
Michael thank you so much for sharing your wealth of knowledge. Great, inspiring ideas. Question; you mentioned the two part epoxy would not be appropriate for outdoors projects. Could you suggest an alternative epoxy which would be suitable for outdoor projects? Again thank you!
Ok... You made me do it... Resistance was futile... You are the first channel I have ever subscribed too, and I’ve watched 1,000’s of videos. The watchability (is that even a word? ...it is now) of your videos and the “make me wanna go build some sh*t!” factor is through the roof! Thank you, Sir; for making me do it.
So...I've watched this video over and over during my cocktail hour in the evenings. It took me forever to build up the courage to attempt something like this. I mostly work on cars and bikes in my garage as a hobby so this was a little out of my wheelhouse. I finally completed a concrete top for a sofa table. I added a few things to make it my own and as custom as possible. My neighbors saw me working with wood and came to see what my new project was, knowing that I usually work with metal. They didn't really understand what I wanted to do, probably because I wasn't explaining it right or was using the wrong words. Evidently "doohickey" and "whosy-whater" aren't real things. Anyway...when I was done, I used half a bag of Vigoro River Pebbles, 3 bags of Rapid Set Mortar Mix with 3 packs of Set Control and 256 oz. of epoxy. It weighs almost 300 lbs!!!! Torching the bubbles out was a little time consuming but once it started to set up I left it alone. My kids were impressed and said it came out really cool as well as the neighbors too. Not sure where I can upload some photos so you can see the process and finished product. I would like to get your opinion. Also.....WHERE'S THE NEW CONTENT? I want to see more cool stuff. I'm going to attempt the fountain after I move.
Awesome job!!..Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have been looking for something like this for awhile, because I am planning to do a table with glass rocks.
Can’t give this enough thumbs up. 👍🏻 absolutely love how the first one turned out. My project is going outside so I can’t use this for that but I’m definitely scheming where I can do it!!!
Michael - nice work, fun to watch!! Not sure if you've left things like that out in the sun for a long, long, looooooong time yet, BUT, if you have, please share your thoughts and experiences with how well the epoxy & glaze endure direct sunlight. Thanks again for the 'concrete' information and entertainment too.
I so want to do the two-part epoxy and river rocks in my bathroom! The countertop, and maybe even the tub-surround. That would be epic! Another great video and a great source of inspiration! Keep up the great work!
This is worth seeing for the 2nd or 3rd Time, Years Later. Thanks Michael Builds !!
Awww! Thanks Dan!
@@MichaelBuilds Thx for your generous supply of Inspiration!
God’s choicest Blessings to You and Yours🥰🇺🇸🇺🇸🏆🏆🥇🇺🇸
Dislikes already?? I have just come to the conclusion that some people are generally just miserable and negative.

The dislike mostly come from people that can't see over the fact that the sound is mono not stereo they just don't see his passion in the material or his hard work. I see it and he is totally great!!!
Maybe the dislike come from the sound problems? For me that doesn't matter I see the work and that's what matters.
@@sooboese3211 ...The sound was brutal at first, then I adjusted my Logitek sound device, and it was great !
@@coindesigner7477 like I said to me the sound didn't matter because I always need the subtitles. Fact is that the work is one hell of good quality and that is what I like.
@@sooboese3211 I totally agree Soo ;-) ..I just thought my comment might help you solve the audio problem :-)
That is awesome, it looks as if I'm looking through water at those rocks, its so beautiful
U need your own show. There is just something about you. Just fabulous.
You are awesome Michael! I love that you can make a mistake, then laugh at yourself and leave it in the video. So much better than coming across absolutely perfect in each project--leaving the rest of us feeling inferior. We are all human. Mistakes are how we learn. :)
Lol thank you so much Deb! Yes I laugh at myself A LOT HAHAHA 😂
I like the fact that you glued them to the table! Rock on Michael!
Another great video , another great project
Thanks for sharing these! Explaining what works, what doesn’t, the things we will encounter (like bonding to surface unwittingly). Epoxy being meant for indoor use. All super duper information. You are awesome!
THANKS BRAD! 😊👍🏻
Mike the second one was SICK!!!
Very interesting approach, Don't see why someone would not like this. Good Job Brother
Thank you so much!
I think I'm going to make the one like a river rock for my kitchen counter in my RV. Thanks Michael!
I Can't Help But Have A HUGE GRIN On My Face When I Watch Your videos because Thanks To You I Know I Can Do This As Well!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE TUTORIALS!!
That blue dye is the "coup de grace"-- just gorgeous.
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! I know! I can’t believe we’re going to hit 3 mill soon!!!
I'd like to see a counter top like this one with the river rocks. So beautiful. Looks like being near a stream
Michael - been watching DIY and Concrete and Make it Yourself channels for years. This is one is one of the best. Sorry about your weather though. Thanks for your energy and time.
Both turned out great! The first one with the blue epoxy is my favorite. Really catches my eye and draws me in. Very well done!

Very Cool Project !!........Imagination is endless.......
Your videos are so fun to watch, love the diy comedy!! 🌺🌸🌺🌸
Awesome work, I typically work with wood, shou sugi ban style with unicorn spit gel. Now you’ve given me different ideas with cement. Thank you for showing your beautiful work.
You are so creative, entertaining, honest and hardworking to watch!
This guy is unbelievable
Lol 😂 thank you so much Hieu! You ROCK!
I could watch you all day!
I haven't done anything with epoxy yet, but I can definitely see how addicting it is like you said. I like both of these benches, but I especially like the rough one & its river rocks.

Love love love this video. No nonsense, great humor, stuff for the real people.
Thank you so much!
I've been wanting to make some stepping stones for my yard, and I think this might be a really pretty thing to do to make some two by two squares with the river rock in them. Really enjoyed your tutorials thank you
Amazing idea sir. I hate you because your making me a busy man. Looks awesome, this is going to be my walkway to my side gate.
OMG both are great... My wife has a list for me to do now. Enjoy all your video's
Well done. YOu made it look easy. And very nice end product!
Well done, very cool stuff giving us who have no creative genes a chance to do something we might feel good about. Love your work Michael Builds!
Use a polyaspartic meant for use on garage floors to go over the epoxy . That's what I use on floors .
Beautiful work . I appreciate the time you take .
Would that make it OK to be left outside then?
New to your channel and I'm so glad to find it! Cool and creative!
Welcome to the channel Robert!
Nice job! Much appreciated that you share your creative techniques. Looks tempting to try one myself.
I've rewatched all your videos, you need more. You're becoming my addiction I can't wait to start mine but I need to unpack in new house not watching TH-cam but I can't get enough of you. And where is this Michael Builds merchandise. I want a t shirt. 👊👍
Colored concrete, brilliantly colored river rocks, and a complimentary or contrasting epoxy color? I think I should try it.
Stuck to counter, LMFAO. First time I sewed something, I sewed it right to the skirt I was wearing. Love your channel.
Lol 😂 that’s awesome! Hahaha
So beautiful pieces of concrete. Thanks!
Thank you so much!
You are so much fun, and so informative to watch! Love your work!
Thank you so much D!
Take the OSHA Silica PEL Certification. Teach and encourage your viewers to use these safety measures, when grinding concrete. Great job and very creative!
The deep rock piece would be so cool with a diy propane fire pit!!
Beautiful Work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much 😊!!!!!!!!
Magical hands, love it
Sooo beautiful...thank you very much Michael for teaching the simple & genius skill👍❤
Nice job looks great
Thank you so much Bryan!
Mesmerizing job! Seeing these ideas and craft made me wonder how much time I had wasted in my life. Thumbs up
I better start working on it
At first I didn’t really like where all that pitting was going along with the rough rocks but DAMN! That’s awesome!
That’s what I’m talkin about! Thank you so much Doug!
Oh yeah! Now we are going to have to do something like that. That's just awesome!! And congratulations on being a feature post on CTS Cement Mfg Corp/Rapid Set Facebook page.

Swing by some time, I can hook you up with some slabs. I've got some maple that's probably close to dry enough.
Can’t give this enough thumbs up. 👍🏻 absolutely love how the first one turned out. My project is going outside so I can’t use this for that but I’m definitely scheming where I can do it!!!
Beautiful❤ I would love to see you do an epoxy kitchen countertop!
