I love this series of your home improvements. The landscaping between the driveway and the house looks great. Love how the Milwaukee worked out for you. Batteries are the way to go now. Just hope they can stand up to vibration in the long term. Great job Dave!
I concur

Great looking slab!

David is this your permanent residence or a get away spot of yours? Property looks great
I travel a lot, so it's hard to say what's permanent.
Wow, the battery tech finally got there.
As long as those batteries hold up, freaking expensive 😂
Can't wait to find out
Nice
Thanks
Nice work and love the edge treatment. Shame its a pricey item or I would get one and use it for my sidewalk pours.
Maybe a rental place has them
First time I have seen someone other there people in southern Manitoba use a power trowel on a driveway. Been doing it for 26 years now. This is the normal around here.
Machines make it better.
If you power trowel exterior concrete in an area that gets freeze thaw it is very likely to delaminate the surface. I’m in upstate NY and that’s a big no-no.
@@mikepipher3347 come to southern mb. I can should you driveways from the 80's that look fine.
@@henryfehr6202 I’m glad it works out for you, but that doesn’t make it right.
Dave, do you not use the fiberglass rebar anymore? Seems like I haven't seen it in a while.
No to hard to source
Good job guys. What type of saw is used on vidéo ?
Medusa
Nice job especially skillful with power trowels in not wrecking the stamped border, slab looks great. The coating you had applied to area next to garage for me looks great but always eventually detaches because concrete and fibreglass have different expansion rates that cause delamination after time is this product different? What do you do if power trowel battery goes flat spares for my hand tools are costly I imagine the ones for the power trowel must cost a lot more? It is sure nice to use indoors with no exhaust fumes. Ray Stormont
I have 3 batteries so no worries.
I remember the video on that slab behind the house.
Cool
TY
Very nice Finnish !

How much are the Milwaukee trowels? Come on really nice David. Great work as usual
Two batteries and a super charger $7,000
It's also interesting how you treat your own project a little different than a client project. You seem a little more willing to wing it.
True, good points
Not a criticism... your own projects are great opportunities to try something new.
I've gone 39 years of my life never hearing the word "Pickle Ball" and in like the last month I've heard it like 500 times. I still don't understand it or any idea what it is. But it sounds like the name of a prn movie.
😅
It's a trending game I haven't played yet, so I just got the net , balls and paddle for the Superbowl party
Its fun, its just like tennis but you play with wood paddles and hard whiffle balls on a smaller court. Fun and fast game especially when playing doubles.
The slab looks great. Thankfully it wasn't a windy day with dirt and sand blowing everywhere ruining your pour !
true
I'm curious why you picked this location. Are you retiring here?
My dad lives across the Street and he's 87
👍👍
Lot's of Rain in Arizona lately
Thats true
Ya
Why didn’t you put the crack control in wet. Nice job 🇬🇧
I like small lines
Thought fersure you were gonna squish that labridoodle!!!
When I watched the video it looked dangerous
Sweet 👍

👍🖖
Did they send you the Milwaukee for free for the video,
I wish
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Great video didn't know you guys did power trowel type of concrete,
That's what sucks about working on your own stuff, your not in a rush. Meaning it takes years to finish. Hahahaha
Wife - "when are you going to finish xxxxxxxx".
You hit that right on the button
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Like I tell my wife, "when a man say's he'll get something done, he will. You dont need to remind me every 6 months!" 😂🤣
Flat stakes in the az desert are horrible. Round is stronger and able to force/squeeze in.
For sure
Was that the Mrs. We saw there for a minute?
Yes
You should have got the 12 ft. Viber screed
I have the 4'
Hi there! I’ve been watching your channel and have seen that it seems the biggest and wealthiest customers are the largest arseholes! You are awesome and I would hire you in a second if you lived near me! XO
That's true
TY
slowly batteries power is taking over. wait in 10-20 years almost everything going be batterie power.
I concur
Where’s the younger guy at?
The Chef is here
Prefer the hand finish trowel over the power trowel. It left too many obvious swirls.
Non slip surface
Does that concrete truck get 10 yards??? There’s no way

Gas powered all the way
Not for me anymore
Batteries still have a long way to go. I will take gas all day.
though i do agree, compared to a decade ago, battery powered tools have come a long way. I can only imagine where they'll be in another 10 years
I think for me the battery powered is the tool I'll be using now.
I can let it set indefinitely and will always work as long as the battery is charged.
Maintenance free.
I’m retired now but I sure as heck wish I had battery operated power towels when we had to finish slabs inside of enclosed buildings in the middle of the northeast winters. That SUCKED with gas powered equipment let me tell you. It’s a wonder we made it out of some of those jobs alive.
@@rawkusrex I doubt they’ll be much better unless we get all new battery technology. I think LI-Io is about maxxed out
That would be brutal
Middle of the summer 98 degrees 80 yards of concrete, your employees forgot to charge the batteries. That was one of the most miserable days at work in the last 20 years. That piece of junk is bouncing around at the shop. Totally wasted money
Send it my way I'll trade my gas powered for your battery powered, and we both win.
Man get an excavator and stop playing with that toy
This is more versatile.
An excavator? That’s for digging. The mini track loaders is for moving dirt around.
He wasn’t digging footings or trenches.
So, 2 to 3 batteries, 30 minute charge time, power required to recharge, or a 2 gal can of gas
That's a no-brainer. Throw that electric crap in the dumpster
I'd like to know your opinion if Milwaukee hadn't gave you that tool.
Much more reliable and maintenance free.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete for how long ??
How long does your alternator work on your car or your flashlight, try thinking of other things on a smaller scale that have been in use for a long time, and how long they last?
Electric motors on fans and many more things
