Who wants to see watch us make a pizza oven? Comment below
Yes please
i immediately thought to myself “could this technique be adapted to make a pizza oven”!!!
Pizza oven or tandoor
I thought this WAS an oven. Lol
Yes, that is what I thought of when I first watched this video. The planter is cool but I saw pizza oven.😊😋
My favorite era of UA-cam. Someone plainly narrating over a video that doesnt need it.
It could be worse, the people that do "to camera" videos, then have 20 different angles.
WHY DO I NEED TO SEE THE SIDE OF YOUR FACE?!?!?
They can communicate
…and getting it wrong!
he added some useful info too:
"really good mix"
"look at this stuff"
"beautiful"
Easy money without fucking effort, but yt has their own interest I guess they'd ban it otherwise.
I love the finished product. I’m a renter, so all my plants are potted. I love a good pot.
Same here! ...oh wait. We might be talking about... you know what, yeah, a good pot is good.
I love good pot too! The bigger the better😂
@@MatthewSmith-gl4xv i was thinking smaller for my step and a possible bird bath.
Yeah, I also love good pot!
Marijuana.
What a fantastic idea! You can make this huge planter on site and avoid expensive delivery - avoid breakage during transport too. All with the same template. These planters cost a bomb to buy. Marvellous!

Hes adding lime. That's the "fiber".it holds the sand and cement together an keeps it from cracking. Mix 4 to 1. 4 parts sand, 1 part lime 1part cement. Slowly add water to be able to ball up in your hand. If you're wondering.
Not even close
@@Oldminerdonwhat do you think it is
Fiber is also very often added to concrete to improve durability, specifically tensile strength which normal concrete has very little of. Very similar concept to fiberglass.
Yer the white stuff is lime the fibres no
@@natrixxirtan
Lime has no fiber in it. All lime does is make the cement mix more sticky. You can definitely add fiber to the mix though.
Too much lime weakens the mix and causes excess shrinking as it dries, and the excess shrinkage will cause it to crack.
I'm a mason for a few decades and I know how lime works in mortar and stucco etc, but honestly I don't know what the guy has in the mix in the video.
I watched the video only one time and I'm sure the mix isn't a world wide top secret.
I'm guessing that there's some fiber in his mix to make it stronger. And possibly some perlite or volcanic used in place of pea gravel to make it lighter.
It's definitely not just 50/50 cement and lime with sand and some pea gravel.
Guys like this who share how they made their product for handy men like me who could easily put it together are freekin champs 👌👍
I was hoping for a pizza oven.
Same
Pizza ovens have to be made thicker and need ceramic like brick
@@Imrightyourwrongable I was wondering the difference
Gotta be a way to use this for pizza oven. Love it!
@@Imrightyourwrongable they also can be made out of Cob hell I didn’t seen one made out of a 55 barrel drum laying on the ground covered with nothing but rocks and dirt work perfectly there’s a video somewhere on UA-cam
Thank god this guy narrated. I wouldn’t have known what he was doing just from watching him do it
I'm sorry to hear about your bad eyesight..
It’s not concrete, concrete has gravel in it, this has chopped fiberglass.
Exactly, i can use my eyes with my brain, here it's enought :)

The mix has some fiber, water, a go pro camera… that’s a really good mix with that camera for aggregate
And likely some water reducer.

What about the limestone
Best comment
Some detergent to make it fatty and easy to trowel
In the 90’ , we built a 2.5 m diameter ceiling with the same technique out of plaster/ gips and fiber. Then we cut it in 4 segments and installed on 3rd floor ceiling . Everything was designed ( on back of drywall panel)and fabricated and installed by a team of teenagers .
That ceiling still exists in island of Corfu.
we used to use rhubarb leaves on top of sand as a template, it became pretty nice bird baths or shallow planters.
That would be cool to watch
I’ve seen them made w/rhubarb leaves, there gorgeous, been meaning to try making one or two myself.
How?!?? I've always thought that rhubarb leaf would be great for a leaf print, but you just blew my mind!
What do you use for other side of form? If that makes sense ...
@@rotcakasand id assume leaves or anything you want to imprint on top of the sand
Wow thanks for the idea!
Back in 1972 I went with my mom and helped her pick out a pedestal bird bath. The bath part broke 20 odd years ago, and the pedestal has been sitting around along with a planter that sits in the middle. Anyway when sh passed away I swore I was going to figure out how to make a bath so I can put it back together. Now I know exactly how I'm going to do it, thanks for sharing this.
That's really beautiful that even though years have passed you still think of things to make for your mom. I am sure she is looking down on you smiling 😊
@@smallviolin334 You could try. I mean if you really, really work on it you might be able to care even less than you do now. Don't give up on yourself so easily just because your mother did, hang in there.
@@smallviolin334 Being a very sick individual, having no self respect, I actually feel bad for you. Hope you find some way to a better life. Sincerely, good luck to you.
Can you give us an update? Hope all is well!
@@mrphil1956 Thanks for asking. It's a project I plan on doing in June as our Birthdays are both in June. I was looking at the pedestal last week and I noticed it had cracked at the base so I have to address that as well. I'm not much on doing the YT thing as far as running a channel but I may post a video or two of the process and the finished product.
Thanks for narrating it down,I don't have eyes.
I used to work for a company that made planters. We'd use glass reinforced concrete that was sprayed through a gun. The fibre glass allowed for the pots to be lighter, but the need to sand and seal the pots appropriately was needed as a harsh winter was enough to crack them.
We made a lot of interesting designs.
What was used to seal them? I'm in Minnesota and have watched a variety of winter proof planters crack and disintegrate over the years, the only thing that has made it over time has been wood planters with legs to keep them off moist ground, and even then the legs get soft /rot
@@GreenCanvasInteriorscape haha
Never heard a love for concrete like this mans just did. Really good mix. Beautiful.

@@WhoThisMonkeywhat did blud do
Im a plaster tender for a Stucco company and I would get reviews on my mud whether it was good or bad. The applicators would let me know right away if it’s to tight (not enough water), or to soupy (too much water). Idk who the guy talking is but we usually hear stuff like that from foreman’s or contractors that just like to bullshit. It’s just a cheesy compliment or this guy just really wanted to see some tight mud that day. That mix was nothing special, just needed to be tight so he could mold with it
That technique is probably thousands of years old and still works today.

White plaster for pools is 3 to 1 crushed white marble and #2 white portland cement. Also don't forget a hole in the bottom. Also a piece of oval plastic out of the bottom of a gallon of ice cream for a bendi tool for shaping. Keep Smoothing out the cream as it comes up. A person could add pearlite for lightness. You would substitute some pearlite for some of the crushed white marble. Is that fiber some cotton or coconut fiber. It's white. Great Vid Bud. I love his Template. I have been studying for a wood fire pizza oven.. That pearlite conveys fire proofing to the mix. Thanks for the show. I'm your new subscriber. Hello. ThankYou!
Had a long dead neighbour who used to make plant pots like this over three decades ago. Even though he taught his grandson the business, since the day he died everything in his work shed has remained in the exact same spot. Instead of the turning shaper he had a turntable and a stationary mount for the different attachments.
You should see if his son wants it or help you bring it back to life
I'd be interested
I remember my very first job after doing some courses as a carpenter, I was working late and watching the teacher doing a template for the top of two big wooden gates, the arches, he used 4 nails and the width of both gates, got the middle and drew line up, the nails were put on outside and middle, one top and bottom of middle, then tied a loop around the middle nails and outside left, used pencil from outside to middle keeping pressure on the string, got to middle and took left off and put around right nail and continued...made the perfect template for both gates and when in New job the Saturday overtime foreman could not get the arches right and I remembered the thing I'd learned, just got the width and peice of ply and did the same, took 5 minutes until I'd cut it on bansaw and gave it to the foreman to his shock because they tried all that morning...I showed them and told them it can be used for any width or even double gates....these foreman were 50s, I was 17 and they never seen it before. ..so I was always after that the arches guy...EVEN PAYED ME BECAUSE THEY WERE NIXERS NOT WORK FOR THE JOB....I STRUGGLED IN SCHOOL BUT I ONLY NEEDED TO BE SHOWN 1 TIME WHEN WORKING WITH MY HANDS AND I WOULD NOT HAVE TO BE SHOWN AGAIN....THIS HERE JUST REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING SO SIMPLE BUT VERY EASY TO DO...EVEN MAKE BIGGER ONE'S AND YOU COULD MAKE A WATER FOUNTAIN....

I thought he was making an outdoor Pizza oven 😂👍
That’s both elegant and rustic at the same time 👍
I can't get over his yard in the snow, that looks stunning
Yeah, I think thats frost, not quite snow so the grass and stuff hasnt browned. That is a lot of frost though.
it’s a total guess but i’d say that’s either england or ireland from the weather/light/plants
I saw people in Asia doing this exact thing years ago. This is not easy, but he did a great job! It is not regular cement and the sand is damp and packed down to keep the shape. I would love to have them in my yard!!
Yeah, and that's the point I guess. This guy might be able to rustle up a few orders, but they make millions of this sort of thing in Asia and then flood the market.
Wasn’t as heavy as regular cement.
In Germany, clay molds for church bells were traditionally made in the same way as those in Cologne Cathedral. The mold was then used to cast a bronze bell. The largest bell in Cologne Cathedral weighs 24 tons and was made in 1923. Unfortunately, today bells are usually only made by machine.
Wow. Very interesting.

But hey look at you, you know how to make a concrete bowl. I'm proud of you.
@@anynamewilldo7776 I'm not talking about core subjects like math and English, I'm talking skills like building stuff, financial literacy, and other life skills that school doesnt teach you. Learned how do my taxes from UA-cam videos, learned how to dress like a professional from UA-cam videos, learned how to workout with correct form through bodybuilding videos
Parádní nápad!!Já bych to obrátil, udělal dvířka a používal to jako pec na pečení žebírek!!😁🤔💖
That’s actually how bells are made the traditional way. They make this three times and then break away the mid level. Then the melted metal is poured in the gab between
I watched some Afghan women and children make these absolutely gorgeous plates in the most basic and primitive way. It was amazing how beautiful they were, oh and the plates were pretty too.
A parallel technique is used to cast church bells only instead of adobe for an oven or whatever this was you coat it in wax then add more daub then melt the wax out and pour in bronze.
Nice. This gives me an idea of making an awesome patio Pizza oven. Anyone else seeing two of these joined together with a fire box underneath? Will need to use High Heat Mortar instead of regular cement but should work a peach.
Use chicken wire and it will last . If not you will get hella stress crack from expansion and contraction
I’m picking up what you’re putting down sounds like an awesome idea brother put a video up. Awesome idea
I made mine with chicken wire perlite cement and sand. Lots of perlite. Then fire bricks as floor After it cures a few days then remove the sand mound inside. Then cook it over a few days slowly raising temperature. A few hours each day hotter each time
@@badgerfactoryno
4 parts Sand, 1 part Hydrated Lime, water, synthetic fiber to fortify the lime.
He’s definitely using more than that!
Sand s as my lime is not enough! Doesn’t matter what fibers you are using!
Synthetic fiber.. what is that? Where to get that? And how to get exact thickness of cement?
@Panda In The Farm I would skip that and do 1 part Portland cement. 1.5 parts Lime, 1.5 parts Sand, and 3 parts Aggregate(small rocks). That's a good structural mix. No carbon fiber or fibers needed.
That lends itself to a lot more than gardening bowls.For example, you could put formers, divides, in the cement so you got four quarters, to allow you to put them up on a corner where two walls met, one above the other, and grow strawberries.
You could place a pane of glass in the sand positioned so that it intercepted the angle of the curve, and you would have the basis for a terrarium you could look into like a fish tank.
Creative
Really cool ideas, You could make a hole in the bottom and form it into two halves and put it around a tree or something like that - could have plants around a tree or make it look like the tree is in a pot
@@robertflanagan6168 Yep.
I have actually been thinking about this. You could use it to make long trough shaped bowls too.
Make the two ends by putting a divider in, then you can make a straight section very simply with the same curve by putting your two ends down on a mound of sand, and draw the shaper along a straight edge.
Why this would be good is, you can make a raised planter trough that has a attractive edge, it needs less soil to fill it, and gives you somewhere to have tools.
Also, you can easily scribe or print a pattern into the outside of the mold as it dries.
Human ingenuity is such a beautiful thing
No doubt 💪💪
I got to respect another man’s craft takes pride in his work
It's not just getting the concrete/mortar mix right, it's getting the right consistency in the sand as well
There have been books written on concrete mix design. Plus all the possible admixtures, like air en-training agents, super plasticizers, fume silica, fly ash, fibers, set retards, just to name a few.
Also the white powered he added was probably hydrated lime. Makes it cure stronger but you can’t use too much or it’ll make it weaker
That is awesome! Looks super cheap and easy to make too.
If you want to know more, there are about 1 million videos of guys in Asia showing you how to do this in great detail.
my man rly put the camera in the cement mixer and trusted it not to get lost in the cement
Probably in one of the dive boxes, you could just pull it out and wash it off.
Wow it doesn't get much simpler than that. Super cool!
If it’s so simple, then that means you must know the ingredients he used for the casting!
If you don’t know exactly what he’s using, then it’s not so easy!! Is it??🤔🤔🤔

This is a simply enormous amount of work if you make every bowl the same way. You would be hard pressed to make more than three or four a day like that. It must be possible to make one bowl by the method shown, and then use that as the core of a mould to cast others.
Gorgeous cement planter bowl!
That is an old time foundry technique, molding with a "sweep"
Sweep moulding . . . finally. Stephen I have watched so many videos of people doing this process from making bowls to plaster wall moulding, and not one person ever mentioned what this technique is called. I want to thank you in ernest for your comment.
@@jerrywhidby. glad I could help. I made one template for a foundry that was making big "earthquake " washers for the college of Charleston. They wanted the new buildings to match tmsome old ones that had been stabilized in the 1880's with long through rods and cast washers on the outside wall after a large earthquake. Also made a pattern that was diamond shaped with Latin letters for a church in Charleston SC.
Grazie! Bella idea. Adesso so come farmi i vasi per giardino 😘
Not adjusting the template, but mounting a different (larger radius) template 💁🏻♀️
did he just add a longer pipe to template?
He loosened the bolt and pulled out from the center
Look again… different template, same pipe.
This could also be made into beautiful vessel sinks for bathrooms and kitchens
Not really. Concrete is porous. You'll have to coat it with some type of epoxy first.
@@sleazybtd That's exactly what people do to make it not absorb water. I've seen some sand the concrete sink they made and then coat it with something and then had it polished. The end result was very aesthetically pleasing.
Cost it with what to make it waterproof.
He should sell that template. I made a lot of small concrete goods and was just brainstorming ideas how i can do diy concrete planters, but i also wanted big ones like this. I was thinking of creating a silicone mold at first but thatd be soo much silicone.

Temp plate?
Not to take away from the great vlog, but it's actually pronounced "temp lit." 😊
The guys from India really had this nailed down.
This is also a great way to build a giant outdoor bunker if you can afford the concrete.
So what.....assuming "you" already own the adequate sized property, _follow these simple steps_ firstly, excavate the land, then you haul in a few yards/tons of sand, mold to your desired shape, buy maybe a couple or few grand in (preferably galvanized) piping, framing lumber and plywood, then hire a concrete contractor to deliver and distribute the mix, followed by simply flipping the structure and digging out the sand.....which "you" can use to apply a new layer of clean sand to dress up your private beach on what is presumably your private lake shoreline.
Good thing "you" could afford all that concrete!
😂
@@mushroommcfarmer1766 LoL! Well, kinda... I'm actually referring to how the Germans made giant football field sized bunkers during the war. Basically, they'd mound up dirt the size of the structure they wanted, then pour 4 to 8 or 10 ( I don't remember exactly) feet of concrete over it. Then, when it dried, they'd just dig out the dirt and viola! They'd have a giant bomb proof (sometimes) bunker. It's on the history channel or something similar, pretty interesting, and this just reminded me of that is all. I personally could not afford any of that. Ha ha!
That cold Frosty snowy morning was absolutely drop-dead gorgeous. It reminds me of a cold foggy December mourning sitting out in the woods during deer season
I watched him doing this a few years ago. Those tubs and pots use to be for sale $5,000.00 each
Would have a stronger structure lining the sand mold with mesh wiring
Talkin sh¡t you have no experience doing obviously 😒
Love the cleverness!
Engineers move the world and deserve everyone's adoration.
I used this method to make a clay pizza oven, except I put a perlite concrete mixture between two layers of concrete and I cut an opening on the side to remove the sand
A voice over that does the same job as a red arrow
damn that template idea is genius.
I saw this at least 10 years ago, a chinese village men was doing this, 😂
I believe that it's a very, very old method. It's used extensively around the world.

Wow !
What he fails to mention is that the template is actually two templates. One for the sand and one for the cement. The same template cannot be used for both the sand and the cement. The inner wall and the outer wall will not be parallel with each other if you attempt to use the same template by adjusting it. You can use the same pipe stand but alter the wood template to adjust for both height and width.
I love it.❤
@@binarycode4462 Yes, the template wasn't "adjusted", it was changed entirely to a different one - to get a taller & "wider" result.
I thought it was going to be a pizza oven thing at first; did you have any ideas what he might be doing, before the flower pot was shown?
@@binarycode4462 Of course they don't know the details! They nick someone's video and make up the commentary as they go along! All for clicks with minimum work!!!
Thank you so much. How about laying down a layer of screen or fiberglass before you put the concrete over the sand to provide extra strength?
Gosh! Using his spare time for this? Kudos.

Using this guide for making moon lights in my room. Thank you so much❤
these structures depend entirely on concrete's tensile strength, which sucks, so he adds fiber, then makes sure the fiber rots because it's around soil organisms and acids.
use a thinner pure cement mixture for final coat you will get a much smoother finish
Many years ago I helped my father to make a similar dome with the exact same technique.
What is the hole at the bottom for? Water won't stay in it for the plants. The hole should be on the side. I can improve it, thanks for the technique.
I feel like if you were going to make a bunch of these (and presumably sell them) as pictured at the end, you might as well make a permanent mold instead of having to stack up sand every time.
the inflatable style with a metal mesh is better imo, just extend the concrete over it, inflate, and there you have a dome, a pot, whatever scale you want it to be
I need to hear how the "arm" template was made. Especially how it gets expanded to create the thickness.
I had a friend back in the day, with the last name "Boels" pronounced "bowls". As for first name we gave him the nickname Cement. So, l called him "Cement Bowls". Nice to see his legacy lives on, in "Cement Bowls"
Tried&Tested- I shaped a 12 ft.D. Dish this way, but using rigid foam- Independence Day- city destroyer.
If your making more than one it's easier to make a concrete mould and paint it. Then use the wooden template as seen here. It's much quicker!
Does the absence of a metallic structure affect the robustness of the vase? Or the concrete alone is strong enough ? Very efficient process anyway
Perfectly brilliant and beautiful ❤❤❤❤

Everyone is talking about the cameraman chilling in the cement mixer but kudos to the guy who stayed outside with the spinning world, he must be dizzy by now.
Should use a type of half sphere to build up the sand on. Then you don't need so much sand. Could even be a cube ... You just need to fill that void
My first thought was pizza oven.. Totally easy idea
My first thought was somewhat darker.
