▲ 62 ▼ First time trying concrete mold. Too much water or too little vibration? (feddit.dk) submitted 1 year ago by wiegell@feddit.dk to c/diy@beehaw.org 20 comments fedilink hide all child comments All recommendations are welcome. In particular how to vibrate a two part mold without it breaking apart. I did not weigh the mix and water, but i suspect i used too much water. Also added about 2% plasticizer.

I only have a few centimeters to work with to a french drain around the corner, so i want the outlet to be on the side close to the surface. I have a drain grate that will fit on top of this thing. permalink fedilink source parent
