I just recently learned this amazing trick from someone. On any concrete forms especially a curb this works amazingly. You grab your saws-all, Remove the blade, and with some force press the saws-all table against the form and pull the trigger, it acts as an amazing vibrator to release any air pockets from the concrete.
This is an amazing trick, when you work, let's say with a counter top or something relatively small. But when we talking production, what you saw in the video not even a quarter of what we can place and finish in one day. Just don't have time for that, especially when you have to strip to finish. This technique also could be used on the set of risers which are not getting striped.
just use a portable concrete vibrator
A compacting drill is good to but the slump is important most
This video helped me a lot for planning my curb project this morning. I probably watched this 10 times. Thanks for posting!
Glad it was helpful!
Cool music, I play ambient some mornings on my AirPods if I’m working solo on a project. Wasn’t distracting for your video, cool perspective
Cool, thanks
We use expansion joint every 20 feet betwen the reebars, insted just a control joint. Nice video tnxs for share it.
Who else its watching this to make their own curb to skate?
only I wanna build cement to ramp onto a roadblock and some wall in an alleyway so I can wall ride and skate the top of this huge road block
Very good example
could you give a ballpark time of how long until you can take forms off the curbing to do the Finish trowel work (1 to 4 hours later?)
Hey guys next time cut your wooden clamps at 5degree for more stability but nice work.
nice job, you can really speed up the curb process though if you get good lifting and shaping a curb by hand. Will save you time and tons of money.
Sounds good! Would have to try it!
What did you use to fill the jagged asphalt gap from the concrete curb?
If you used cold patch will you seal it right away?
How long do you leave the forms in place before Stage 6? Everything I've read says leave them for several days, but this video shows removing them in order to finish the face.
It is different all the time, because concrete sets up whatever the hack it wants! So, I can't really tell the time, you have to watch it and check time to time with your fingers, checking on how easy/hard rocks are going down, if they aren't moving easy, strip one board and see, if it isn't falling you good to go. Takes a lot of practice to judge it good.
@@Take_And_Make I wish someone would bury me alive me in cement
You can remove the forms and start facing it once the top of the concrete is as hard as the back of your hand.
@@superrdddego Thanks, ive done msny walkways i just did first curb yestèrday and was skepical of other videos where forms were left on many days. Its much essier for me to smooth out burrs etc inside of of a day or so after that it becomes chisel time.So i will take them off tomorrow morning and do my finish work.
nice
Needed vibrate pokering ..and a sponge rub up
Question: is that just bare wood forms or did you use a smooth-face form to take off more easily?
just bare wood, spray it with oil for better results
I used to have to pour concrete for curbs and sidewalks with a manual transmission mixer. My knee took a beating!
Dowels into dirt wow
Здравствуйте. Вы можете рассказать состав бетона?
Дело в том что я уже весь интернет перерыл но так и ничего не нашёл)
The safest bet for any concrete mix is four-two-one: four parts crushed rock; two parts sand; and one part cement. The four-two-one mix, obviously, has seven parts.
@@Take_And_Make Thank you for responding. We do the same. I just don't understand what you add to concrete, that it doesn't get dusty. I'll see how you make sidewalks and curbs. There is no dust. And our concrete is quite dusty when it dries. It's a big secret to me what you add to concrete. Thanks.
@@dublshmabl9028 add nothing, just brush it after few hours
Should of used form oil
should of???????WTF
@@robertduklus6555
What??
aw man i was really hoping a truck would like poop out the concrete as it slowly drives forming a nice smooth curb lol
I wish>>>\\\
That's called a power curber.
@@tybilodeau4439 Correct me If I'm wrong. You Still need to smooth out the Concrete later, even with the Power Curber right ?
@@hanselxyb5825 yeah there's still a little hand work. Best used for long straight shots. Not ideal for this application but the machine does exist.
@@tybilodeau4439 Yup, seen some of those machines.
This camera work made me nauseous.
Free hand curb..side ...😂old school it dude...let's see that
Bruh, Can you do one with a Curb and Channel ?
What was the TIME before pulling forms? Some videos say wait 48 hours, it looks like you guys took them right off.
You have to strip it while it's still somewhat fresh, so you can work with it, if your goal is to finish the face. Time depends on many factors, such as mix design, weather, curb dimensions. Anywhere between 25-60 mins after placed.
dont u ever tap the forms on top, then left to right with 2 guys and use the board as a "float" to help it from having honeycombs. use hammer to loosen then use hands to push it back and for couple inches?
Looks good!
Thank you!
Немного удивлён: в конце видео наряду с английским "Thank you for watching" надпись по-русски "Спасибо за просмотр". Это неизвестные мне технологии по изменению видео в ходе просмотра в зависимости от региона зрителя или просто намёк на то, что автор из России/СНГ?
@@chtets160I’m very late but there’s no technology like that currently. I believe it’s been put into the video by the creator
@@AXbcyz Спасибо за ответ!
What the heck why did they not use a top tool
Anyone have a video showing the right way to make a curb? This looks like ass.
I thought you were supposed to hit it with a wood trowel the mag then steel?
Lol am i wrong?
Why not just lay pre cast concrete kerbs
I wish some tone were recording while he was doing the job😞that cámara he had on forehead is not a good idea, I couldn’t enjoy the video😥
I used what I had at that time, that footage was filmed a few years ago. I'm editing new material now, so make sure you subscribe! No more shaking videos
I don't think I don't feel that's a curb came out by professionals it looks sloppy it look like if they were beginners I'm no professional but I seen good work and that wasn't good work but good luck
Are those wooden yokes ? Lol
Yes they are
That concrete must be from China not one picket for the forms really.
What mix/slump do you use?
25 MPa Slump 80-100

Привіт,знімайте ще Вашу роботу. Цікаво.
Привіт! Дякую, буду далі монтувати, вже назнімав чимало.
Horrible work
per builder request
cmon man that curb looked fine
Not one edge guys come on.
WTH???
Umm.. not sure what to say? Quality of work is very questionable.
This was actually brutal. Nice forming but the concrete was way to dry and the finishing poor.
Amateur hour
0(zero) vibration.. not cool..
First-person POV actually made me sick and is confusing. Suggestion: Redo the video and take-off the body cam if one wants to be a TH-camr.
Dude this video was shot like 6 years ago and uploaded over 4 years ago. You should check out my recent content before criticizing and teaching me how to be a TH-camr
@@Take_And_Make Notice I said "Redo". "If you want to be a TH-camr" assumed that maybe you weren't trying to make YouTubing your primary gig.
Why would a person go check out a lot of material when the search pulls up a video that could be better redone? Looked for other sources.
You market how you want to.
You seem quite good at concrete. Also mentioned as a "suggestion". New suggestion. Get thicker skin. Criticism helps us grow.
If your new stuff is better, be a grown -up and either ignore the suggestion, or say, "thanks". Because comments help your algorithm.
Or...do whatever. I don't care.
Terrible finish. No one brooms curb. An you still have holes in it .
buy a concrete saw and you wont have to do that every 10 feet
You would still need to cut it every 10 feet. With tool cut you don't need to come back. Design is up to customer of course.
