I poured concrete "Florida"for 36 years, I'm retired now.But i can tell you are a perfectionist and it shows in your work,great video..and good luck 💯!!!

@@fingersmalone6503 thank you sir! 🫡 im gonna be taking it commercial soon as i get the chance

Heyyy, thank you sir🫡

This time it was my Jamaican brother Leroy, Me and him switch on and off and we were the main curb guys.

Been pouring curb behind a machine for over a decade. We've always freehanded the head. Don't see too many people who do it that way and make it look good. Respect.

@@ibfrosty08 thank you sir!

will be sick!

I always do :p thank you

Be back tmrow to finish!🫡

If the curb guy does it right its very easy to run the pole edger, no need to have him bend over all day if he doesnt need too. If u gotta hand edge you either lack skill or the ccurb is not lookn out for you

@@globalconcrete ive never really tried the pole edger on curb personally i just like the hand edge never thought to do it any other way but my experience with these old school guys is theyll be very adamant on running the pole edger just to push the curb head down a quarter inch or so and have it looking wavey from a distance, If they have the skill then right on but in my case its always some stubborn journeyman thats used to a different standard

@@forapply4583 i leave it a little up on purpose so he can put the weight on it to push it down and match the form. If the curb guy pulls the curb exact with the form the yea its a pain to edge on the poll

@@globalconcrete thats some good work, that setup looks really good too if you have a video showing how you lift it before you slick it thatd be great, looks like a curb machine poured it how flush it looks

@@forapply4583 i got some video somewhere i believe, Alot of my other videos I just up it with this slicker most of the time and eyeball it.

😆😆 They grabbed us some the good ish finally🤙🏽🤙🏽

YESSIR!!!

yessir! Appreciate it. Thank you! Its tough for sure regardless your experience level and I def would love to do it another way but this is the quickest way forsure.

By me they are sold local, otherwise u gotta go on marshalltown website

thank you sir

I understand my man! Appreciate it thats why i make them. I was doin the same years ago when i 1st started. Usually comes at a 4 inch slump curb mix and should stay up pretty well. Its all about the timing really and when you come up take the pressure off. Or you can grab cream from the pan and bring it up over the curb to close it up so you dont have to mess with the shape

@globalconcrete sounds good bro. I'm gonna give it a shot Monday. 90% of the time we're running sidewalk or driveway too, and it's always got big @ss rock in it. I'll see if we can get a curb mix instead. I've watched guys finish with curb mix and it makes it look so much easier. I'm sure with experience, either mix is fine.... but shit I'll take any handicap I can get. Thanks again man. Til the next one! 💪

@@dustyparks2732 forsure! I know most of the time they order flat work then do the curb and its tough, you just gotta let it sit for a while

Lol feel ya

This is how we broom finish freeways and main roads. It looks just like how it is here

Thank you sir

Ive been there plenty of times! We never get like that anymore! 🙏🏽

Its honestly changed the way we do it for good, mixes so easy if u have just the right amount of water or have someone sprinkle it in. Effortless

Changed the way we mix mortar forever!

thank you sir

We own 10 curb machines, those are only used if im not on the job

Just gotta know how to do it, But i never lose a load;p

❤️

Yessir 6” high back F

Ann arbor Michigan

idk the exact ratios but we'll get high early in it and sometimes we'll do a 7 bag mix but you gotta be fast or itll get hard on you. The high early def makes it creamy

it was a chill day its usually chaos, Def like to play sometimes, thank you sir.

im tryin to change the stereo type lol, Eat a healthy diet, be as skilled as possible and stretch everyday! Curb machine in the heat is when youll be hurting but its a great skill to have if you want to make money.

@@globalconcrete I’m a Union commercial concrete carpenter. Been around the block a few times and my back is my kryptonite. Stretching I need to do more often though.

Thank you sir, everybodys got their way ive poured all over the country and out. This is Michigan style

Thanks, thats just how they do it here in MI, I did the form and pour in cali as well also in Canada they do that and alot of other states too. Since our curb is rolled its just alot faster and cheaper if you have a good curb guy cuz of the cost of wood. The form and strip process takes alot longer as well but its def easier on the body. Again thats just how they do it I wouldnt mind not breaking my back lol

Thats literally what i do everyday on the finish. I did 500 today

Yessir we do our best and bust our cheeks

thanks 💙

Thank you sir, all day everyday.

LOL which ones?

I made it lol

Im from Michigan and im back here but i traveled around doing some concrete and lived in LA 2 years. The heat is brutal
