    Really great that you and Tyler are taking the time to teach Shane what you both have learned in the trade. Also it's good to see Shane wanting to learn and hopefully become one of your regular finishers. I think he did an awesome job!

      Yes I agree….if you want good workers and workers that are highly skilled….this is how you do it….my sense is that demeaning and yelling like a drill Sargent will get them to do what you want but only as much as they will do so to not be yelled at…I bet that guy willbe a great finisher soon…

    Shane is doing a great job!
    I'm more than twice his age and I've done some small slabs within the past few years. It definitely takes practice to get it to look good.
    My front patio project required about 3 pallets (60# bags) and I used the 'Steele Mixer', completely manual (no power). One bag at a time, working solo.
    Much respect for Shane getting deeper into the trade. (btw, tell him I loved his "Valley Girl" song 😉)

    I like to use plastic film underneath, on amateur jobs I do around my place,
    just to retain moisture for the cure and waterproofing mainly.
    Maybe not that much difference in final strength though.

    1) How much time do you have to finish from the first pour from the wheelbarrow to the last and then from the last poutr from the wheelbarrow until the final smoothing must be finished? 2) What is the maximum area one can person can pour and smooth on his/her own?

    Great vid. Question why 4500 vs 5000psi? What are the pros and cons of both aside from cost?
    Second question is there any kind of slope for drainage? If not how do you decide how tall to make the slab to avoid flooding or constant water sitting at ground level?

    Funny and clever how you tricked Shane into finishing the slab while you and your bro sat around and watched him work. Just kidding. Best way to learn is to do what you're trying to learn. And that's exactly what you did. He now has a valuable skill. So, I imagine he got a huge raise right?
