    Pro tip - 45 your risers and the batter boards won't stick to the run when you go to remove them. It makes it a little easier to finish.
    2. you can use the Sawzall to vibrate the concrete down into the form to get the mud down into those voids on the stairs. Just press the shoe against the form and let her rip.
    3. You're going to want some extra Crete around when you pull the forms just in case you pull a chunk out.
    4. Spray your forms with diesel, pam, or whatever you prefer to prevent the forms from sticking to the Crete. Looks great!!

      Make a small test section for the cement your going to use. The bag cement I get from Menards isn’t nearly as nice as the cement you get from your local cement supplier. This makes it a lot harder to make look k nice and the finish isn’t nearly as hard.

      @@lefty_420 I worked with masons in Boston, they added soap to get a creamy texture, it holds emulsion longer. They actually sell the soap at the mason supply but the brickies just used dishwashing liquid, its cheaper and does the same thing. Just a squirt in a 80 lb batch.
      Soap is how to emulsify oil and water.
      It prevents the water from draining out of the mud too fast.

    Hey Ryan! Greetings from Norway! I just wanted to add in that for steps it's really nice if you cut a 45 degree on the bottom of 2x8 so you can run your float all the way in on the face of the step for correct elevation. It is very nice seeing you guys work as a team and it is very different as I work with bridges and 10-floor buildings. Love your work! Keep it up!

I've gotta feeling this video will blow up in views because of how in depth you explain everything even a child could understand. Would definitely love to see more videos like this in the future!

And always had a 5 gallon bucket of a dry mix of fine sand and cement just in case when you strip the step forms and there are voids ,,,,mix up alittle mud and fill in the voids !! Works out well on a hot day when the concrete is drying fast and you cant scrap any grout off of the trend to fill them !!

    Hey Ryan, can you answer a question for me? I’m from Texas but live in Pennsylvania now, why do concrete trucks have the mixer reversed up north? In Texas, and most of the south, they have the concrete come out of the back, where up here it comes out of the front of truck. Love the channel, hope you continue to find success!

    • @VictoryOutdoorServices
      @VictoryOutdoorServices  3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      We used to have rear discharge up here as well. Fortunately over time they all switched over to front discharge which is far superior. I believe the truck itself costs more and some areas are hesitant to invest. Once a company in an area switches to fronts, the competition follows or they will be left behind. That's why some areas are all front and some are rear.

    Thank you for the instruction and making it look easy. I am getting ready to pour an 8x12 shed and a/c pad. The spring it'll be a new driveway and sidewalk around the house to a new small patio at the base of a deck. I can only hope my work looks half as good as yours. Easy money!

    Very enjoyable, you should do more like this Ryan, laying out the string lines and getting the proper elevation.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I was looking for just a standard pour from start to finish (very hard to find!)...was an excellent bonus that you showed stair work. Excellent teaching!!! I like the music that you used while you were finishing up, too : )

    That was just the video I was looking for--answered so many questions. I was hoping you might talk about set times for the initial set before taking off the first form, but otherwise....easy money!

    Man, you are awesome at explaining things! I’m an interior systems carpenter getting ready to knock out some concrete stairs and after watching your video, I feel extremely confident. They may not end up looking like yours but if I follow your steps, they should turn out pretty nice. New subscriber! 👍

    sooooo my youngest John John now says we have to get rid of the wooden steps I built 2 years ago and that we need easy money steps. so, I guess its new steps come spring!!!! Excellent video. I'll be referring to this video when we do start on our steps.

    The only thing i can remotely say I don't like about this video is how easy you make it look. LOL. In all honesty you are top notch in your trade, and have such a great attitude. If I lived in your area I wouldn't hesitate to hire you for concrete work. Keep up the good videos man, your doing great. easssssy money!!!
