In this video I show you how I made these quick and easy concrete steps using Quikrete 5000. I’d rather make them faster…

What’s the white board?
Think I’ll try that
I wonder if some kind of material to give more grip. That looks really smooth and could be slippery.
Why the LIP? It might add added pizzaz BUT
also can cause accidents to toes, shins and ankles
Lol her tattoo shop is 10 min from me.
Melamine board is 45$ a sheet. Any cheaper solutions? Thanks
Can you or would you be able to do these steps with rapid set? And if you can, can you also add color to the entire step?
Hey Michael, great video! Did you also build the porch the steps go up to? Did you make a video of that process? I want to do the same. Thanks
Nice!
Cut the bs and get to the bottom of it.
After mixing, have another 5 gallon bucket filled with water to put the drill in.
The weight of the water will prevent the drill from falling over, unlike leaning it against something. Also, it helps keep mixing drill bit clean.
Your breaking your ankle on those steps too small
it's been a year, has it been holding up?
Absolutely beautiful and SO creative!!! Thanks for sharing!
I just love your channel.
Freaking awesome!!!
Do you have a video on the brown concrete porch behind the steps?
A nice inventive solution, well executed. Looks good. The only issue I can see is that the top riser appears to be considerably shorter in height than the two bottom risers. I have no idea what your building code says about the allowable variation in riser heights, and perhaps it says nothing about exterior stairs with a short run of three risers. It would have been a bit more work to cut down the height of the concrete blocks used to make the risers, but the diamond blade on the grinder would have made that part of the project go fairly quickly, and there weren't that many to cut down. You shared some good ideas in your video. Thanks.
This looks awesome! Too bad it's not quick and easy lol
It really came out nice
That really looks awesome! What was the mesh you used in the middle of the concrete, between the first pour and second pour?
OH MY GOODNESS YOU ARE SO CLEVER! I LOVED THIS VIDEO! AND THEY TURNED OUT BEAUTIFULLY! THANK YOU:)))
Irregular step height is a building code violation. Will not pass an inspection for a home sale and must be even .
I like it the slaped look good
2:02 best part of all that work was that shrapnel capture.
Dude, I really enjoy your videos but I have to say that I cringed and felt that fear in my gut when I watched you push that panel through the table saw with your bare hand. For God’s sake, use a pusher to do that, not your hand !! Easy way to lose fingers in a split second. Please be careful.
Thanks for another awesome video.
Awesome
Have you ever tried a dry pour mold???
The link for your niece doesnt work. Where in michigan is she located cuz i live in southeast michigan too.
It's called Melamine, NOT Malemine! Also use a pad sander (without the sandpaper on it) to vibrate the sides to get the air bubbles out. And add a little dry mix on the slick Melamine surface to add some texture and a light dusting all over so it won't look like glass and be slicker than snot when wet!
Not sure if anyone commented about the thumb and finger grip along the INSIDE of the table saw blade at around 4:26 … one slip and that could have ended badly
