haha, all right dude, i'm just stocked how the DIY people are exchanging infos and pictures about all this shit... if have ideas to better the mold building and the coping process, passe the word, mixing ideas make them progress...
i've spent like half hour to check all the pictures of your spot. Huge respect man, I'm amazed, just amazed. We've been talking about you between us and we all agree : FUCK YEEAAH!!! If any day you got to come down south to France, come to Marseille, you will always have somewhere to crash and sleep, and some spots to rip... Peace man.
eyyh!! the French connection checking in, thanks! I'm honored. the same goes out to you.
Dam I thought I was a genious when I did that...I guess it's an inevitable conclusion that an alchohlic skateboarder makes. I soon turned to Smartwater bottles because I could see voids in the crete and they were easier to work with on curved molds. That's the coping here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPZUUON9jmA
Eventually a concrete friend of mine showed me how to pour it in place shown here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VhYOwoAAmc
I like the pour in place method way better. You could pour alot more all at once with no grout lines to ever worry about. Try it out if your feeling it. I wish I would have known about this method sooner. It also can really heal up unlevel surfaces better than trying to level individual blocks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30xzhjcolFo Let me know if you need any help or maybe you just want it to be gnarly and you like making the molds. I also hope you don't mind but was going to put a picture of your bowl on my site. peace out babyskeletons.
