      I cringed when I saw that. Get the Grr-ripper. Cutting like that is a question of when and how bad.

      The outside ones are 36" x 18", the inside ones are 48" x 16", and they are all separated by 4.5" gaps. Good luck with your project!

      Thank you - yes, I agree I need to work more safely with the table saw. One of the things I find helpful about making these videos is seeing my own mistakes and getting feedback from viewers.

    What is thickness/height of the slabs?

    • @projectreaDIY
      @projectreaDIY  Год назад

      The forms are 3.5" high but are seated into the dirt in places to make them level with the patio. So the slabs range from 2.75" to 3.25" thick.

    How many 60lb bags per square?

    • @projectreaDIY
      @projectreaDIY  Год назад

      These steps were about 1.5' wide by 4' long by .25' feet (3 inches) thick = 1.5 cubic feet. A 60 lb bag is .45 cubic feet, so a shape that size would be a little over 3 bags.

      It makes the surface pitted, for a different look and to help with traction when you walk
