Ross Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Sweet! The guard on mine helps arrest sparks, somewhat, but is pretty limited on protecting fingers. Yep, I've put a couple-three good- sized welts on my hands/thumbs over the years. Your supervising, and ya got eye protection on him so I'm going to spare you the OSHA Safety Police scolding and say great job getting your kid involved in the project, something he'll remember for always.

bmichael75 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 Started grinding the concrete tonight. It's a lot of work and it sure makes a mess, but I think it is going to be worth it!

cbass Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 How much did this cost you in materials? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmichael75 Posted October 19, 2015 Author Share Posted October 19, 2015 Didn't get too much done this weekend. Wife had other plans for my time!! I am going to acid stain the concrete with a black acid and then seal it with a lithium water based penetrating sealer. Then the plan is to polish it out to a few thousand grit and let it shine. Hopefully I will have time to finish grinding it down this week. As far as cost, I am not even sure. I am afraid to add it up!! If I had to guess, it wouldn't be too much, probably less than $400. But that is a total guess! You know the saying....Ignorance is Bliss!! retfr8flyr and ErikJL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POOLGUYINCT Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Looks like you gents has fun!!! Slip some blocking under that slab, wire mesh doesnt give lateral support or prevent deflection & FYI that slab wont be cured for about a month.

POOLGUYINCT Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Did you guys cook your own concrete or use a bagged product? If a bagged mix, which one? I must say i really like this project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
