Casting concrete worktops

[K.H]

Im buggered if im lugging a concrete mixer to Chugs!

Chug's probably got one he'll lend you!

Anyway, most people know how to mix concrete, it's the polishing bit we want to see.  You, or indeed others, could do the mixing and casting bit before hand and bring the cured slabs to the BBB.

Pretty cool. Polished concrete is pretty big in SE Asia. Cheap, and hard wearing, I guess.
Some poor blighter gets to sit all night, working it up to a shine, as it goes off. I think they use water and sand, and then work it up with a sponge. In the morning, you can see your face in it.

I'm just wondering how much more weight I can get in  my caravan, before the whole lot disappears through the floor.....

I was chatting to a design student on Thu, making a Shepherds hut, mainly from a kit, he was going to stick a lead roof on it!

... do we have to have a poll on the subject?

Shouldn't that read "shall we have a poll on the job"?

We've all heard about those dodgy builders on the tele, very expensive and very unreliable prooly won't turn up even if you booked him now.

As for walking on water I'll have to get some practice in,  ain't done it for a while.

Might learn something when it collapses. Gonna cost a bit, too.

Sounds like historical authenticity wasn't in the design brief......
