  • I needed a stand for my parasol and have been wanting to experiment with concrete for a while. So I put two and two together and made a concrete parasol stand!

    Thank you so much! I have been trying to come up with an idea for a base for poles for a very portable deer fence, so I will make my own pole bases, with a smaller version of what you made.
    And, totally worth it for the mallet head flying off, and you laughing :)

    I like your creative idea. I'm thinking of doing a square concrete base form with a longer pipe that can then be dropped into a square planter then add some pebble rocks, soil, flowers and my umbrella. This way if I ever want to remove the concrete base I could.

      Gosh I'm so late on reply, but guessing it's the same reason alot of circle bases are concave, it helps with leveling on a surface.

    Would it hold all the clothes firmly without tipping over to dry clothes outside on my patio?

    So you used 10.5l of concrete, right? How large is your umbrella and would you say that the weight of the concrete was enough, even on windy days?

  • @Sascha_LB
    @Sascha_LB 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Really a cool Projekt I may reproduce it. The "Mallet thing" makes me laugh. Thanks.
    I did not get the point why you wanted this inner hexagon. Is it for better ventilation or a better base for rough ground?
    I hope the stand will last because I missed some steel wires or steel mesh within the concrete.
    Thanks for showing

    Your finished holder should have more width as this will help stop it falling over in wind.

    Do you still use this stand? I'm wondering if it's actually heavy enough for that size parasol...

    • @CraftsWithEllen
      @CraftsWithEllen  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I've used it all this time and it works great for this parasol. I wouldn't use it for the huge ones, those would need more weight, but for this one it's absolutely fine :)
