If you've been following tubedude's "What the hell is Rockwool" thread, then you know what this is all about.

Doweling in the steel:
I actually ram-set the form to the patio. The bags are just there to square it up so it didn't move on me.

That reminds me of a story:

As a civil engineer, we use concrete for a lot of stuff.
Drainage structures, retaining walls, light pole foundations, rip-rap... a lot of stuff.

One time, we had this big concrete flume comming out of a pond. One of the architects on the project said, "Can't you guys do something about the look of that flume?"
I said, "Well, yeah, we could paint it grey!?"


He didn't see the humor. :(
 
Paint it black? I was thinking some nice terra cotta outdoor tiles would look nice.

Have fun Michael!!

Darryl.....
 
Looks very cool sir. I'd leave it the way it is as that's where the drummer will take a smoke break and stub out the butts. :D
 
I was going to tile it with brick veneer, like what's there at the threshold, but I'd have to cut the brick down to a veneer.
96 of them. :(

I have a wet saw, but its kind of cheesy.
At any rate, that's pretty low on my list of priorities.

I am in my last year of Civil Engineering Technology and we make fun or architects all the time. It's fun :D
