Hi quick question superplasticizer is expensive and hard to get hold of if your not a company here in the UK any advice on how to make your own , for self compacting concrete . Good pier cap saves on mould time for low numbers
Hey! We really don't recommend using superplasticizer while making this capstone, because that will make the concrete too liquid and it won't stick up in a peak like this. Also, there really is no way to make superplasticizer without a laboratory :P We do ship superplasticizer worldwide in user friendly quantities, either 1lb (0.453592 kg.) bags, 33 Lb. (14.9685 kg.) bags, or 55 L. (24.9476 kg.) bags. Here is the less expensive, weaker option-globmarble.com/superplasticizer-for-cement-and-gypsum.html and here is the stronger alternative- globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html
Brilliant video...well done. So realisic to the natural stone
Thanks!!
In case this guy doesn't complete the project, will it be difficult to have someone make caps for them? Where should I start?
Gorgeous cap for a pillar!
Thanks!!
How long did the process take from start to finish? I'm waiting for someone to make caps for my pillars. Just wondering how long should it take?
The concrete will adequately cure within 24 hours
Great video. Thanks for taking the time.
Thanks for watching!
Is there a link to the mold you used to make the slate texture on the formed pyramid? I didn’t see it. Thanks!
Yeah, here are the links to all of our textured skin mats- globmarble.com/stamped-concrete/texture-skin-mats/
Good stuff guys! Liked and subbed!!
Thanks for the sub!
Awesome vids!
Glad you like them!
That’s pretty creative! Do I have to use a sealer without stains?
Thanks! You wont need to use a sealer without using any stains or accent colors :)
Masterpiece
Thanks!
Great principles and steps to be used my projects. I would add suspended (hidden) wire.
What for?
@@GlobMarble Avoid cracks. Crumble... I'll hang the edge out 6 inches
To be honest I don't think rebar is necessary for this project because of the thickness compared to its width

what is that white stuff you are sticking inside the frame
Can you elaborate?
That's a lot of work
That does look like a lot of work, and on his covered page he says "New and easy"don't think so
Do you know how to create textured edges?
Easiest way is with the edge forms like you saw in the video
AMAZING!!!!
Thanks!
Nice bro
Thanks :)
Thump up
Thanks!
Too much..not simple..
