Corbels Again


My DIY concrete vibrator seemed to work well - see previous post. As bonus, the corbels make good chin up bars ;) Nice and chunky - suits the garage.

Here is my very dodgy form work... I wet downed the concrete blocks before placing the concrete - it makes it stick better. The concrete was a fairly dry mix. It is amazing that the mix can go dry to wet in just a cup of water.

I accidently covered some of the screws with the chip board and had to do some cutting. Not for the faint hearted is an angle grider with a multi cutting blade...


Off comes the form work and now appears the green concrete. I used a wire brush to create a bit of texture...
