2 Molds Old Wooden Boards Concrete Mould Garden Stepping Stone Path Patio #S05

Took a couple tries before we perfected it. A 30kg bag fills 4 almost to the top. Perfect for what we need. Someone suggested something vibrating on the table to work the bubbles out. Worked like a dream. I’ll add a photo when the project is complete!!!

Tres bon rendu.Moule de bonne épaisseur et les nervure sont bien visible sur les dalles une fois démouler.Les moules sont de bonne qualité.👍

These are amazing! The weather is too wet to pour this week but hopefully this weekend I can post an update with photos.The molds are sturdy, bigger, and more detailed in person! I can’t wait to use them. The cost is of course a bonus but the uniqueness of the mold is eye catching.

il prodotto ha superato le aspettative, gli stampi sono ben fatti e le venature del legno sono molto realistiche: ecco alcuni consigli per ottenere delle piastrelle perfette:1)va bene il calcestruzzo già predosato, ma è consigliabile aggiungere del cemento portland per migliorare la rifinitura delle venature (attenzione pèrò di non esagerare, altrimenti il calcestruzzo perderà in resistenza meccanica)2)spennellate dell'olio lubrificante (va bene quello per il motore) in modo da facilitare l'estrazione del calcestruzzo una volta indurito (questa fase è fondamentale per evitare di rompere lo stampo)3)versate fino a metà e sbattete per bene lo stampo, in modo da eliminare le bolle d'aria che si formeranno sul fondo (la parte visibile della piastrella)4)potete aggiungere ossido di ferro colorato per rendere ancora più realistico l'effetto legno5)attendere 24 ore6) il risultato lo vedete nella foto :)

OK this is the inside scoop, I have made about 60 pavers so far and have paved the ground on the west side of my house. don't use the least expensive ready mix bag, you need a mix with a little more Portland cement for a nice finish. The key is to fill the mold half to two thirds full, work the mix into the mold, pick up the mold and slosh the mix side to side and end to end for about 5 seconds each to release air bubbles from the face of the paver, very important for best quality then fill the rest of the way and smooth flat with a strait edge and place on a level surface. Always, Always use a release agent, I paint motor oil on mine and the pavers fall right out. It is important to lightly clean your molds between batches, I use Simple Green. if you have a lot of pavers to make buy more molds, I bought two sets for four in total, I may buy more in the future. I mix my concrete in a five gallon bucket and a two thirds full bucket will satisfy two molds . Mix your concrete a little wet so the mix will flow out, if you mix it to wet and runny your paver will be weak and may crack in the mold. Buy the way acid stain works great, I take a spray bottle pump sprayer and put it right in the quart bottle the acid stain comes in, two coats and it looks great! one more thing the sides of the paver may come out tapered and not square, this will produce large gaps if placing your pavers side by side . A four inch angle grinder with a diamond blade is great for correcting this and for cutting the paver for fit, you can get the grinder and diamond blade from Harbor Freight at a good price. Good Luck!
