Concrete bench
I saw a bench where the legs were concrete. Does anyone know
where I can find instructions for making forms for such a bench. rec.home.repair is the best newsgroup on USENET. Dick -- Richard D. Adams, CPA (Retired) Moderator: misc.taxes.moderated and misc.legal.moderated |

Don tucker has a blog and forum where several concrete workers hang out and he contributes from time to time. This is one of his concrete benches; http://www.makersgallery.com/concrete/gg-tucker.html He's got some even more impressive ones but this was the first one I hit on Google. Find his forum & read up on all the different ways you can make forms or freehand concrete. the sky is the limit. Jim |

Local concrete products place will have the precast stuff in stock, stronger than you can make with home-made forms, and with a smoother finish. -- aem sends... |

Yep, I found those in my search, but he asked for instructions on how to make the forms. If he had added "...or where to buy them", I would have provided a search link for those too. You should have responded to him rather than me. -- aem sends... -- Bill In Hamptonburgh, NY In the original Orange County. Est. 1683 To email, remove the double zeros after @ |
