Hi, guys Kirk here with Kirk giordano plastering, we're gonna do today is something fun I like. It
gives us a bit of a challenge. The homeowners here want a cap on here, meaning they want
this piece to extend about an inch and a half. They want actually a three-inch yep right here,
so a lot of ways to do this I can think of 20 I looked at it on Google Maps, and I thought,
man I could be 20 different ways to do that you have a carpenter break all this out and
build it up. Still, then you compromise the membrane, or better yet, I thought it a rough
we can do it eliminate the carpenter give it the same structural strength we're gonna place I'll
show you over here we've already set the templates for this now what we've done here is we've gotten
our height. Hence, we want three inches up, and we're going to come out an inch and a half. Hence,
we've placed the template here in some clamps we weld created this top out there with a wire brush.
So now what we're going to do is mix up some hot bud pour it on him. I'm going to
then float it all in that way it will give it the integrity the strength, so in case
somebody takes the 50-pound flowerpot popped it on here, it doesn't pop these corners off,
but there's no guarantee with that either even concrete sometimes real hairline crack anyway
that's where we're going all right guys we're at a stage now everything is true plumb and
leveled off Jason just made me some hot bud which means i got about 15 minutes to play
with this dump now what i'm gonna do for this waiting for the mix of light cement
all right, what I've done to is I've taken water, and I've rinsed this right here because
that means the stucco won't adhere to this it will adhere to this wall here because you
have weld creeper now I've got the mud on here this mud is gonna set fat you see how high it
is that's how much accelerators the counts I'm just gonna go ahead and fill this template up
And I'm gonna bury all this metal. I'm not gonna see the
metal when I'm done. Of course, that's just for added strength
it's gonna take me about 15 minutes. We don't buy the crap out of folks J we'll
go ahead and call it quits, but when I get this one completely done, I'll show you how
we did all right guys and what i'm doing here is floating everything now we're on the waiting
game so this has got to set about another 15 20 minutes you've got nothing but time here
pretty soon I'm gonna go ahead and pull this off and then doctor it up a little bit because
it's going to be somewhat like the concrete here they did the concrete when they pull the forms
off you see a chip here and there that's even concrete does that when you pull the forms off
sometimes okay guys I went ahead and pulled that form you actually just got off the bus
but a boat form and when I pull some of these boards we aren't going to have holidays now
that I pulled it I use a lot of water on this because I wanted to pure and the more water
but make it a little stronger so I've got a lot of water I do you see this just coming off here
it was like yeah and if I had a holiday say if I dug in here I can take some of the mud right
from the bucket fill it in float it back yet give you another way to do it I said there was
a lot of ways to do it we came here right before lunch what I did is I ground this out with a lot
of aluminum and now of course I put our next coat now that it's solid right here all right
I'm gonna float this look this stuff Jay just made this that's hard already so it takes a little
practice to use lemon ice these accelerators I don't I don't recommend anybody try to use the
accelerators it's just made mud then next we take sponge pop it in this [ __ ] line though
and I just give it a blow finish while the mothers still wet I can achieve this finish here because
the sand comes to the top easy there it is just like that we're gonna proceed to the next couple
we've got a couple more left here and get the idea when we're completely this is my template
and then we're gonna take the wood there put it underneath pour it the same same way we've done
these we got two more to go and we're complete with everything I'll show it to you folks okay
guys we are completed with this Jason asked me a good question how come they just didn't go
with styrofoam well start almost nowhere near as strong for this particular area again they
said they wanted to set big plants on here of course I told him don't set it on the edge set
him in the middle they were gonna go with this granite here but it's architects said it was
too heavy for their foundation they're going to go with stone they're gonna go with all kinds of
thing anyway we just beat the rain guys we're here about eight hours doing this this stuff
here the people here DJ and we'll just both sides we actually brought their front out too so it's
not just a side but the face anyway that's what they wanted us what we give them pretty strong
however, no no pots and plants should be placed right at the edge just even concrete sweep, there anyway folks
my name is Kirk, we thank you for watching, and well, see you at the next one.
