    The concrete top makes perfect sense for the shop. Well done.

    It would have been the answer to the questions in my mind if this had been done using an apron front farmhouse sink. I'm closer to it than I was though and do appreciate your video. Thanx Man.

      I have not formed up around a farmhouse sink, but you should be able to use the sink form like you seen in this video except you would put it on after the sink is set on the cement board framing. I hope that helps!

    Nice easy to follow video. I'd like to do this for our kitchen. Live edges would be really nice. And then there's the back splash and color.

      Live edges would look great and it’s good to think about the backsplash early on. I’m glad you found the video helpful!

    A reciprocating saw without a blade is a great way to jiggle the voids out of concrete!! Just press against the form and go!

    Hi Josh! Your channel is so versatile and shows the world how to do soo many things and I appreciate it!! A few projects that you’ve done are going to have to wait till I get some acres but then next one is going to be concrete countertops. Can you recommend any product/company that I can use to tint the concrete white or at least make it much lighter in color? Thank you!

    • @TheExcellentLaborer
      @TheExcellentLaborer  19 дней назад +2

      I truly enjoy creating the DIY videos that you see on this channel. I love DIY and it has changed my life. I’m so thankful they able to help others!
      I believe that concrete countertop solutions offers a white countertop mix. I do not know anything about it, but you could check that out. Also, there are different stains and dyes you could use on the countertop. I hope that helps!

    Can you use the concrete mix as a pre-cast? I am wanting to do 1 1/2" countertops but can't do them in place.

    Can a thinner top be made with thick edges to save some weight? How much do you estimate this concrete top to weigh?

    Cement board is not water resistant.....it is porous and absorbs water. To make it water resistant/proof you need to apply a membrane of some type.

    fast super fast fast then boom one second loud very loud music mute talk more super fast fast fast video bomm another loud music for one or two seconds some talking and the whole freaking video goes up down more down and up again ~ COme on dude u can do better!! Do u really need the freaking annoying music so loud and just for a couple of seconds??? DO you really think that the music add something positive or good to the enjoyment of the video??? and the speed??? Best to edit cut what u will place in fast mode and bring us a very professional quality video...Ur talent to do things is great, the explanation is very good but oh boy the rest is like I am watching a video done by a 5 year old with no experience in editing... CHeers...I hope u listen to what your viewers are saying...feedback will improve your videos and hence give you more subscribers and at the end more $$$$

      ​​@@lolitabonita08 so he needs to pay for a video editor, but you can't pay for a RUclips subscription to avoid ads and unnecessary complaints? 😂
      Not only do you have a volume button, but you can also adjust your playback speed. Learn how to use your settings. He does this for free and it takes a lot of effort. Least you could do is appreciate it and not complain.
