Turned out great you could have drilled a hole between the two form boards so you could have put you rebar. So when you pour the next section you wouldn't have to worry about drilling in hard concrete.
Is it some kind of requirement from mud mixer that these videos of the machine operating be played in fast forward? Many of the videos I have seen of this mixer are all done in fast forward. It screws of the perception of how well it actually can mix concrete.
A lot of work, but maybe you saved some money by not having to contract a ready mixer truck and driver? Definitely save more time by having a ready mix truck deliver the mud for you.
@@PA96704 hi, so it’s $4.03 for a bag of 60 lbs concrete if you get a pallet (56 in a pallet) Store Cost: $4.03 x 56 = $225.68 plus 7% tax = $241.48 Concrete Plant (4000 psi mix) near me: - $197 a yard plus with 7% tax = $210.79 plus environmental fee per truck load ($40). $268.35. - A minimum of 6 yard is required for free delivery or else you pay up to $300 extra. - Additional Labor expense can be anywhere from $800-$2000. - You may also want to rent a concrete buggy for an additional $150 per day.
Yeah, but the money he saved by not paying a truck probably paid for the mixer and still saved him money. And now he has the mixer he can use to make more money with if he desires.
It’s true that ordering ready mix could be slightly cheaper if you get the 3000 psi mix; however, you also need to pay an experienced crew to be able to handle all that concrete at once. I benefit by learning how to work with concrete one slab at a time!
Great video man! I enjoyed it. You have all the tools 💪
Thanks brother! Tools are never enough.

Thank you! I will try your idea next time.

@@gabemoore8119The mixer can mix about 45 bags per hour. So it would be too boring to watch it mix for an entire hour in real time.

Definitely easier with a ready mix truck
Excellent job, how many bags did you use for the 10 by 10 section. Thanks
Than you! It was 2.5 pallets of 60 lbs bag. Around 8” thick.
@@tractorworkandmore411 Isn't cheaper just getting a truck? How much a bag now?

56×$13=$728.00 on Hawaii 😒
@@PA96704 at least you get to live in Hawaii
20 by 30, must be in bananas!!
That’s right lol

expensive tool and a lot of work when just ordering ready mix would have been cheaper and faster.
