Ok will that sounds like something I can do try to correct the worst stuff with a hand grinder then just run the planetary over to get uniform surface finish. I know I may get exposed aggregate in some locations and I don’t care. The apearance is not critical to me more so the flatness and good...

Since the floor is majority flat except for the one low spot and the high edges do you think it will be feasible to grind down the edges some and then just work on the majority of the floor avoiding the low area? There is no getting away from grinding as I have to do something the get the...

Well pretty much what I figured. The rebar and base compaction was all done by me so I know that was correct. The rain let up just after the last truck poured and they covered the slab in plastic for an hour or so and came back with the power trowel. I’m still water curing it’s been about 2...

I should also mention a repour is mostly out of the question due to time and cost. This is a 8" thick slab with 24" footer and 4k fiber concrete. Rebar is on 12" centers and since I cut out some of the old slab that was here 6-8" fiber concrete with no rebar I do not want to cut out this one...

Well I was asking before about a good contractor and never was able to get someone good. first guy I hired delayed for 2 months until I hired a large industrial firm to finish the pour. This firm does alot of the huge industrial and commercial pours through Atlanta so I figured they wouldn't...

Price of property is why I've given up on that. 1200sqft will get me by for a little while I think. Ill need to brush up on Spanish. but funny enough the 2 contractors that spoke Spanish quoted me the highest one of them seemed like he was trying to play me a bit but I'm not sure. Seems like...

I had one of the first gen 2 44" boxes and a year or so ago I decided to buy some more well the newer ones are not as good by far. drawer slides are cheaper and they have less steel in the frame I was disappointed but oh well. if you got an older one id count yourself lucky they were very very...

Yes I’m in Gwinnett. It’s a hobby mostly. Most people don’t get it I don’t expect anyone too. It’s my thing I enjoy it. It’s my money. Some people buy expensive cars I buy big machines and rebuild other machines. Small warehouse space is more limited than my own property and more expensive in...

might see if the concrete guy can thicken the foundation under the heavy machine. maybe a concrete beam of sorts. I was thinking I could water cure for 7 days or so just by constant sprinkler action. I considered trying to make it like a pool or something too and just have it be a little pond...

Riggers just had fun because they were pushing it up and down little hills. They used 3 skates no issues there. What do I search for to find the mix yards? I wasn’t really able to find any. I have a rotary laser level i will definitely check forms once the conrete guys leave. I tend to not...

Hey there guys I'm hoping there are some fellow Georgians around here. I'm getting ready to build a 1200sqft shop (biggest my city will allow) replacing my 660sqft shop. definitely gonna have a lot of questions as I tend to overthink things a bit. This is a hobby shop for me but I want to make...
