WONDERFUL PICS EVERYONE!Posted By Ivan Gastaldo |
Just stopping by to congratulate everyone for their great pics, and to thank you all for posting...
Real life issues are keeping me quite busy, but I'm stopping by at least once a day just to make sure everything stays under-control, which I know it is, as we are quite a cool group of people and we use this forum to share the fruits of our work & dedication...
Keep it up everyone! 8)

FYI about Concrete Piers and DoItYourselfersPosted By Ivan Gastaldo |
DO NOT DO this stuff by hand, specially if you are ALONE!!!!
Well, I did my Concrete pier, and after mixing by hand 18 (60 pound) bags, I can tell you next time I'll get a bunch of people to help out, or maybe a mixer truck to do this stuff for me! LMAO! what an exhaustive job! (not to mention the Sun was cooking me while doing this...
After the first 2 bags I realized what kind of crap I was into, but could not stop, had to finish the job...
Now all I hope for is that the pier will be OK once cured... if not, well, we'll see.... 8)
Clear skies to all!

Curing concrete, how long to wait?Posted By Ivan Gastaldo |
Trying to get a feeling for how long to wait before I peel off the 12" diameter cardboard sonotube from the concrete pier I just poured 24 hours ago?
Would you say 48 hours is safe, or better 72? or more?
Thanks for the input, Concrete DIY Gurus!
