Casting a concrete (GFRC) table top with integral pigments- work in progress.

36"x1", and 75lbs.

I shared the same technique while I was trying a sample of a new bagged GFRC product, but I bailed at the face coat because it didn't self-consolidate as intended. Some of you may remember that post, but if you'd like to compare- the difference is drastic: https://www.reddit.com/r/Concrete/comments/1lzbm6h/thought_id_share_another_fail_i_bailed_at_the/

About 8ft x 2ft, 1.5" thick. Simple but functional.

31" x 26.25" x 1.5" thick, and about 110lbs for the total slab.

Everyone was right, the blue piece didn't have enough contrast. I liked this design much more.

The video so many have asked about! I am going to be sharing more and more content, but much prefer the resolution on YouTube. Please subscribe there if you'd like to encourage more content like this.

Short of fonts, this is my only inlay work that I haven't drawn myself. To give the vector artist proper credit: Rsinha/shutterstock.com

I tried to share this video earlier but have struggled to format conflicting resolutions. Making concrete is often easier than making the videos 🤣

I make concrete stuff and thought this clip fit here.

Part 2/2

I've shared this project before, but this two part gif shows much more of the fabrication process.

36", ~100lb, inlaid polished concrete table top. Another piece that's a few years old, but thought I'd share anyway.

I made these almost 2 years ago, but don't think I shared them here.
