Dave is a true old school craftsman. He builds everything to last. Solid, just like Fort Knox. Great that he is willing to give back to the community too. 👍👍
I especially like how he worked smart and poured them in place as to not have move them into position.
Worked for a small Concrete company when I was a kid. LOVED IT! We would make these in between jobs. Concrete is SO COOL and there is so much you can do with it if you know how. Thanks for the memories.
Your welcome
@@OdellCompleteConcrete you mean YOU'RE welcome.
David is a gift that keeps giving! I have not done a single project yet but I told my wife I know how to do a lot of things because I watched a lot of Odell Complete Concrete TH-cam videos.
Looks like your locked in
Nothing as relaxing and satisfying, as watching a master craftsman at work putting a beautiful trowel finish on concrete. Thanks to your videos and a couple of others videos on here, concerning concrete work, I've gained so much knowledge and hands on skills over the past 5 years, that I now run my own business...Konkrete Worx LLC
Nice
Get it on
GL
So relaxing, I’m addicted to your vids. This is an art form, my favorite part is the tool that makes the gritty part look like watery putty.
Yes its a good tool.
TY
This was such a nice surprize in my feed! You are such a good teacher! And the end result is so beautiful!! Thank you for this present! :)
Sure, thank you!
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Anyway....you area great teacher! And I approve of this message. :)
Just saw your excellent video. Nice to see real craftsmen explaining how to do it correctly. Good job.
Trowling and floating that concrete looks so relaxing. I bet it's therapeutic.
Yes I think it is
You're a great teacher for DIY'rs.. Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
Love this video, I appreciate how it's geared towards homeowners who could easily knock out a sidewalk or patio project in a couple weekends. Sure it's nice to have a truck come and pour it all in one go but if you're short on cash this could be a great option! Just need a little ground prep and moisture barrier for us up in the rust belt.
For sure
So, I have never heard the term before so I googled it: rust belt "The Rust Belt refers to the geographic region from New York through the Midwest that was once dominated by manufacturing. The Rust Belt is synonymous with regions facing industrial decline and abandoned factories rusted from exposure to the elements."
But this doesn't sound right to me.... cause what does this have to do with moisture or ground prep?
So obviously I found something else. Could you explain what and where a rust belt is?
@@SpliFFFFFFF Rust belt in my mind is Up north where it snows and the ground freezes. Heavy salting on the roads and sidewalks depending on the type, eat away at the surfaces. Including vehicles! Concrete work needs a bit more prep work to keep from heaving due to the freeze thaw cycle.
@@SpliFFFFFFFcorrect. But he just means in the rust belt (Midwest/Great Lakes/ny) you need to do extra ground prep to avoid frost heaving. You need to have a deep gravel base and then sand.
its always good to see someone experienced making something look really easy, when it's probably not. thanks for sharing

I saw this concrete finish in a house in British Columbia I stayed in back in July, looked really great and the guy told us how it was created.
Love these videos- I’m single older woman and need to create a patio and extend my driveway. Wasn’t sure how to get it done on my own - until now!! Thank you!
GL
You still single?
What a great gift! Thanks Dave!
YW
I like the exposed aggregate. Making pavers like this is a neat idea, you could make the forms and do a couple every now and then, like on the weekend or after work or something, and before yo know it you have a whole pile of these things for whatever project you need. Best of all, pavers can be picked up and reused. Even if you didn't want them later, someone would gladly take them.
Yes, I concur
Thank for showing the technical side of making a paver with a great finish.
YW
TY
Thank you for sharing! You are a good instructor, and covered all the bases nicely, thanks again for taking the time to share your many years of experience!
YW
TY
I really like and appreciate how you explain and instruct and warn as you make your projects. I hope you have a very merry Christmas to you and your crew.
Thank you! You too!
@@OdellCompleteConcrete No kidding. He's like the Bob Ross of concrete.
Thank you so much for all of your videos.....they inspire me so much!
You are awesome, sir!
Thank you!
These videos you make are the best. Amazing skills and knowledge, thanks for sharing them!
Glad you like them!
This is a great instructional video, very useful, especially for those who want or need custom sized concrete pavers, it is possible to create a form and make virtually every size and form. thanks!
This is exactly how my city sidewalks look in western Washington after rinsing them. Now I know how they might have done it and I can closely match if I ever get the courage to fix my cracked and lifting little front walk.
Right on
GL
What impeccable craftsmanship. I watched from the first minute to the last. Thank you.
TY
This was so helpful - thank you for sharing your expertise!
Thanks for the video David! I'll be making these soon! 👍
right on
These are great videos with hands-on demonstrations and how-to DIY. I have been busy with these projects at my home. Thank you to O'Dell fo sharing. I appreciate you talking freely to all of us and sharing your experience. I see this video is already a year old, so am a little late to the game. But I am hooked on this and a new subscriber.
Thanks again!
Just caught this today! amazing and thank you for the amazing Christmas gift.. you inspired me to gift and share my talent
Right on
So soothing to watch...a real pro!!! Beautiful!
Thank you, Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Happy holidays!
Merry Christmas to you and your family mate! From London England 👍 here's to a better 2021!! 🤞💪🙏👍😎
Same to you!
Thank you for your very generous sharing of information! Many thanks from Australia!
Our pleasure!
Very well executed and explained, thank you 🙏
Now that's very informative. I'm getting ready for some yard cementing for this spring and summer. This is good to know Thanks for the vid
Glad it was helpful!
I iou up hip hip
Oh man at the 9 minute mark that was beyond absolute perfection. I would have given anything to see how that was going to dry. Absolute masterpiece!!! You couldn’t have smoothed that out any better. I really LOVED that first surface. You did an outstanding job. I never knew it was so time consuming. I thought you put the concrete in your form, let it dry a bit, then smooth it out. I really the dimensions too.
I love how much you love what you do. It shows. Thank you!
Impressive watching great skills with steady confidence. What a beautiful piece of work. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
I've found that making the bottoms concave a little bit keeps them from rocking as they settle into the subtropical sand/clay ground here in Southeastern Louisiana. For smaller stepping-stones I use hardware cloth to impress a waffle-pattern into the tops to avoid slipping on them as the green algae grows on them. It grows on every surface,: plastic siding, vehicles, windows, metal, wood, concrete...if I sat still long enough it'd probably cover my body.
Wow that's intense.
I guess everything grows well there?
@@OdellCompleteConcrete I lived in the desert all my life until 9 years ago and that's when I learned that the expression "Sub-tropical" means "Almost Tropical." Every year we have to walk around chopping little trees down because they grow like weeds here, as do countless shrubs, flowers, grasses, etc.
I never thought about making my own pavers. Thanks. Good Info!
Thank you and Merry Christmas! Snowy day up here on L.Ontario but a happy one.
Happy holidays!
Cool video! I am going to be doing these for a pathway to our garden shed. Thanks
Awesome video for DIY people who want to learn cement basics. If it doesn't turn out right, no harm done - just reuse the forms 👍
Yes thats true
Come this spring I'm going to do some of these . been wanting to do it for a while. Thanks for the tips 👍🏽
GL
Those are nice. I have a few homemade pavers. They’re well worth it. Usually extra mix going in my ready frame
They work well
Omg I’m so glad I found your video. You just saved me a few thousand dollars 🙌🏾 Amazing job thanks for sharing
Glad I could help!
Молодец мужик ! Не боится физической работы.
Privet uz Amerikuu. Myi lyoobum konkretnylu raboty takzhe
@@harperhellems3648 Спасибо за ответ. Бетон -это моя страсть и жизнь！
I could watch your videos over and over, thank you for putting these out. You really make me want to jump in and try doing some concrete work.
For the new year I have a few suggestions for videos I would love to see.
First is a suggested tools for diyers, for instance how big of a mixer do I need if I want to do projects like this one on a regular basis around my house.
My other suggestion is a video on site clean up to keep my wife happy and avoid leaving evidence of the work I've done.
Oh also I was thinking this would be a nice option for a sidewalk along my driveway, if I wanted to have one edge exposed how long should I wait before I concider taking the form off to finish one of the edges?
Good idea
We will try it
Hi David, that looks great, hope you and your family abd staff have a great New year, best regards from Australia.
umm effin badass! Sorry for swearing, love it. Im gonna slowly make a little area by shed for basketball court for my girls. very inexpensive and satisfying as well. Gave me inspiration for power washing and sealing my existing patio. Thanks so much for sharing!
Yes! Exposed aggregate finish! Been waiting on this!
Sweet
Could you do a video on the funny trowel? Love the tool tutorials.
Yes
Good idea
TY
Pretty cool. I like the idea of doing a few on the wknds... knowing we’re all busy or recuperating. Pretty soon you’ll have a good amount.
For sure
enjoyed this! I think I'm actually going to try it. Thanks for sharing.
YW
GL
We got the "oil from my truck" "50% horsehair 50% nylon brush" and the "1/2 inch radius" ! -it really is Christmas :)
For sure
wish you would have shown the process of removing the pavers from the forms. Loved it!
Next time.
TY
Me too! Would’ve liked to see how easy the release is
That looks better than I expected!! Great video!
TY
I’ve seen so many of your videos and I just now saw what you look like, trippy! Love the videos!
Awesome
TY
5 dislikes!!! Must be the competition 😂 they're hating on the "best in the west"! Merry Christmas 🤙
I concur
TY
Exactly 👍
I like how you show video's of the work you do and not try to brag about yourself like the haters do
Right!
A pro like this doesn't have competition 👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦
You are so talented and humble and make it look so easy...nice and cool video
That cocky guy at best n west probably disliked it.
Cheers from the Caribbean
Thank you so much 😀
Nicely done! Thanks for presenting!
YW
I have the same mold I am doing in the spring. I love yours!
Great
GL
So the sand finish came in the concrete or did you add it when mixing?
I love your vids Mike. Think I've seen them all. My favorites are ones like these and your wall vids. They end up looking so good. Things i hope one day I'll be able to do myself.
Sand is part of the concrete
Merry Christmas odell concrete family. I asked santa for a 50% horse hair 50% nylon broom this year
That is awesome!
I just want to say thank you for doing this, very down to earth and explained everything.
YW
TY
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Just the video I have been looking for.
Glad it was helpful!
Has anyone ran the cost numbers yet on buying vs making?
I mean it's all about your time. That's why he just does a couple when he feels like it. If you buy a pallet from home depot its about $20 per piece but they are only 2" thick and the finish is inferior. Plus you have to buy a pallet at that price. A bag of 5000 is less than 6 bucks. Plus it's a good way to practice.
Nice work but is the water hose still running?😡
He should be wearing his mask too!
Thanks, Karens 😅
Covid is not a joke! People die!!!
GREAT LOOKING PAVERS .

Merry Christmas from Los Angeles to you and your family.
