- What is up yall ?
You are watching Episode 1 of my Modern Entryway Build series so SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss future episodes. In this video, we are going through how I created this super modern concrete and cedarwood bench. The ups and downs, Disasters, and beautiful outcome of the bench.
This Has to be my most ambitious project to date, and I'm honestly blown away how it turned out. It was a lot of work and I'm grateful for the help that I got from my good friend Dustin (Dirty D).
Having lived through this build I can honestly say it was a lot of work. A lot of ups and downs but well worth it. I also feel due to the awesome curb appeal my house now has, my property value has increased drastically.
If were to give any advice it would be to brace and brace again. I felt i went overboad with my bracing but obviously not.
I will be posting new episodes every Friday ( or at least ill try), and each one is better than the last.

Yo dude. Just subscribed to your channel and have watched every video. I really like your stuff because it ranges between construction, fine wood working, and just overall cool shit. Your modern aesthetic is totally aligned with my taste. I just a new house and will be borrowing heavily from your videos. Keep up the radical work bro.
Thanks Dude, Comments like these make all the work with while. borrow away dude
Dirty D and almost a major blow out disaster...yep that pretty much covers every concrete job I’ve ever done!
Haha right.
Wow, very impressive! Good detail with all the steps. Do you ever have back pain? If I can give some unsolicited advice that might help your back feel better... I see that your back is taking a lot of the stress of you bending over and moving dirt etc... It would help if you bend your knees and get your hips lower so your legs and butt support your back and torso, almost like squatting, engaging your butt. This provides you with more strength and force from your lower body and take the pressure off your spine and the upper body. Kinda like when you say that you would brace, brace, brace again if you did the project again... the legs and butt provide the bracing. Hope this is received as it is meant! I’ve been a person trainer for over 20 years...!
4 years from now.
Idk if you have tree around, tell me what does it look like to clean between the wood and concrete.
With the kind of backyard i have, it sounds like a nightmare.
does the wood absorb moisture underneath if it rains ? seems like it would unless the climate/environment is dry & sunny-- AZ, CA, etc...
Great work man I’m blown away 🤘🏻🤘🏻 can’t wait to see the next video
Thanks dude, that’s means a lot
This was awesome but now I’m going to see if cinderblocks can simplify your whole cement bench
Cinder blocks probably would be easier. Definitely less stressful.
What laser level do you use/prefer? Thx!
Classy af, sir!!
Love the preciseness - looks great will definitely try your wood work on my block wall.
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow! I just had to subscribe. Your eloquence and talent worked well together. Love it and now I’ll be looking at all your other videos. 👍👍🥂🥂🥂
Thank you, its very appreciated
How has the finish kept up over the last few years?
Thanks so much for this … just poured a similar project using your video as my guide. Based on other guidance I’ll wet cure it for 7 days. Do you recommend waiting the 2 weeks before removing the forms?
Das hätte man auch komplett in holz machen können. Wäre günstiger gekommen.
Looks great! going to try this on my cement retaining wall about 2.5 feet high. thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks dude
With today's lumber prices, that form will cost someone a second mortgage. Stout.
Hey legend, bout to give this a go this weekend, just wandering how many bags of concrete you used?
It looks super stylish mate 👌 how would you maintain the cedar cap to keep it looking good?
Thanks Dude, I made the cap so it comes apart in 3 sections so that I could easily store it during the nasty winter months. Also a quick sand and re stain would freshen it up when needed.
Love your videos but jus asking are you polynesian i see that you showing ur shaka 🤙🤙🤙🤙
Looks awesome, can't wait to see the next videos!
Thankyou, Ep2 out Friday (hopefully)
Hi Thanks so much
Okay now come to my house and do this. What's your rate?
Looking forward to the door video. Entry way is looking really nice.
Thanks dude. It will be out in a couple of weeks
Best intro 👍
What is the height from the top of the concrete to the very top of the wood?
I’m made it took me so long to find this. This is so dope. Great learning vibes!
you can build a bench with bricks at a fraction of the cost
Agreed and I plan to next time
Looks good. Next time use superplastizer
Your care and attention to detail is far better than many builders in the industry.
Thanks so much
thanks a lot for this amazing video
Most welcome!
Awesome. I wish that you were my nephew!
Detailed video. The best is Dustin's help.
Dirty D is the Man
