    Awesome video, we’re looking to add a portico to our house and this has given me ideas. Question ; why not add rebar to the slab holding the columns for extra support ? DIY’ er here Thanks!

    • @AcupulaAcres
      @AcupulaAcres 19 днів тому

      Thank you! Definitely you can. I embedded a layer of wire mesh that I had left over from when we poured the slab and also used rebar in the hole in the center beneath the wire mesh. The center will carry the load and the perimeter was never going to be load bearing. If I stoned the entire column (like ep 82 Driveway columns), I would have used more rebar in the slab part. Also, don’t do a dry pour slab. I didn’t like it at all. Really glad you enjoyed it. Thx for watching!

    Did you consider the AB 4100? I am undecided between these two. If they updating the 4100 to a 2.0 I would probably get that but for now I am leaning towards the 3200 2.0. Does it feel weird to move it around? I noticed you grabbed it by the seat and not the handle on the rollers

      @AcupulaAcres 3 місяці тому

      No I didn’t look at the 4100. I’m not a fan of the post on the roller bar. It’s great for storing vertically but my last bench had it an I constantly trip on it when the bench was in an upright position. There really isn’t a handle on the 3000. I found take I grab the center of the leg bar to pick it up. That being said, I really am happy with the 3000 and I would buy it again. It’s very nice!

I think I like that the seat is a pop pin instead of the ladder. I have a cheaper bench and the seat is a ladder. It would pop out of the ladder when I sat on a certain part of the seat so I was worried about that on the other ladder seats.
