    Man! You are CRAZY handy with tools!!! I watch quite a few different channels...each one leads me to another one... I usually get something from each channel, whether it be gardening know-how, meat processing know-how, pasture management know-how, and YOU inspire me to not be afraid to tackle projects and BUILD what i want!!!! We have already been tossing around the idea to build cabin from a kit..

    I admire your tenacity in tackling this massive project.I found your video production less than it could have been. The background music over rode your voice and I had to keep turning the volume up and down to avoid the incessant sanding noise. Hope that helps for future videos. We enjoy your channel and your resourcefulness.

      Thanks. I dont know what happened with the audio, I am thinking it had alot to d with the sander over riding the mic. Next video it will be BETTER. I wont be sanding LOL. I like the constructive criticism, especially since it is coming from a subscriber that enjoys the channel. Thanks for the feed back and cant wait to see you on the net one! What do you think about a weekly tool review video?

      All of us tool junkies are always interested in someone else's tool selection.It can help from a what and what not to buy perspective.

      Coni R Thank you 😊 it has been a labor of love ❤️. But it has been fun and totally worth it. I can't wait 😊 either to see what it looks like once it is sealed. Bummer we have to wait 2 more weeks until the concert is fully cured

    I've used mineral oil on concrete kitchen counter because it is food safe. As long as you get a pure tune oil I would think it would be food safe, mineral is so easy to get hands on and cheap.

    • @LumnahAcres

      Todd Sarnstrom Thanks. We have some pure tung oil left over from our floors. Did you like the mineral oil finish

    Turned out nice. I just poured my 4x8 island top. I poured onto puck board. I just removed it and it’s extremely shiny, to shiny. My sealer is a matte finish, I’m a little concerned if i sand it it will show the swirl marks ??

    Wonder why you didn’t continue sanding and polishing with increasing your Diamond pad number; 50, 100, 300, 800, 1250, 2,000, 3,000., 5,000. Makes it really smooth and just a touch of shine without pouring any top coating. Maybe you weren’t finished. Not sure

    I really enjoy watching your video's..........BUT the back ground music is WAY TO LOUD for us old farts that have hearing problems it makes it VERY hard to hear you, PLEASE turn the music down or off. Other wise GREAT JOB I like what your doing and the counter top is just lovely!!!! Thanks Bunches. God Bless You and Yours.

    Probably could get a second job, using the time it took to make and sand that concrete countertop and get granite for a countertop. How do you plan on coloring it? Surely you don't plan to leave it the color of mud.

    Anytime I watch a video I will read some of the comments to see what people think. The # 1 complaints is the background music as on this video, there are a lot of complaints. Personally I wish they would not be any music. That's just my opinion.
