Do you every pour the concrete in dry set your post then add water? I hear fence guys doing this all the time.
ОтветитьI had to watch your video when I got home. I worked with the fast setting concrete today. It was my first time to use it. It does set up faster than the concrete in the yellow bag. I won't be using it again, because I like to be able to work with the concrete for a few minutes.
Ответитьfor a little more than half the price, I would go with the regular high strength concrete bag (80 lbs for $5.27 equivalent to $3.29 of a 50 lb bag) over the quick setting bag (50 lbs for $5.37 per bag or $8.59 for a 80lb bag). Just take your time, brace your posts and wait a day. It will take me a few days anyway to set up all my 23 posts.
ОтветитьYou are not 160 lbs fuck outa here. Thanks for the Great video tho.
ОтветитьDon't you need to wear mask when mixing the concrete?
ОтветитьIt wasn't clear which hole was which cement. I was confused about the conclusion to your experiment.
ОтветитьThank you
ОтветитьTry hot water... makes a huge difference
ОтветитьA lot of you have no clue what you’re talking about. Setup time has zero to do with the strength of the concrete mix. Rapid set is stronger then anything else in a bag and sets up faster then anything else in a bag… drive on it in under an hour and they use it on airport runways it’s that good. 🤦🏻♂️.
ОтветитьThe difference is the formula an yes correct on the fast setting is for fence an the regular concrete is for more lengthy jobs that require longer set an dry time fast setting is for posts only an for side walks an patios there is a product we make Q-5000 which is more pontent
ОтветитьPlease protect your lungs, toxic fumes!
ОтветитьNever wobble a post while it's setting!
ОтветитьI used quicrete and 4 hours later is still not set. hope i dont have to dig it back up
ОтветитьThere's no need to mix the kwikset just add kwikset to the whole then add water
Ответитьthis is good i was wondring what the difference was lol i love this guy lol thanks for another great bideos!
ОтветитьEven if it is faster, at more than double the cost of regular concrete mix it's definitely not worth it.
Not to mention how much the price has gone up in the last 2 years. I paid ~$4.50 a bag for the quick setting 2 years ago and it's $7 a bag now.
Homeboy is a bit tipsy lol
ОтветитьCould you use a little fast setting first to get the post to be sturdy and workable and then add the high strength after 30 min or so in order to work while the majority of the the high strength dries?
ОтветитьI dug a 3ft 9 inch deep hole with a diameter of 14 inches. Due to rain, the 3ft 9 inch hole got about 9 inches of water in the hole. Crazy thing is the hole was completely covered prior to the rain but somehow 9 inches of water still got into the hole. I have been waiting for the dirt to soak up all the water in the hole however it doesn't seem to be doing that. After two weeks the water is still there. So my question is what would be the best way to drain the water out of the hole? I thought about just putting a few thick bed sheets in the hole to soak up all the water like a sponge but wasn't sure if that would work efficiently. I then thought about just pouring dry concrete in the hole and mixing it with the water that is already in the hole. What do you suggest? One more question. If I drained all the water out of the hole and the dirt/soil in the hole is still wet and soft is it still okay to mix concrete and pour it into the hole with the dirt/soil already being fully saturated with water? Oh wait....one more question LOL. How many bags of concrete would I need for a 3ft 9 inch deep hole with a diameter of 14 inches? I will be installing a fencing pole with a diameter of about 2 inches. Thanks for your help.
ОтветитьOne more question. I am installing a steel/metal fencing post. The hole that I dug is 3 feet 9 inches deep with a diameter of 14 inches. How bags of Quikrete do you think I would need assuming I want the Quikrete to come up to ground level.
ОтветитьCan you mix both in the same batch?? And what would happend? 1 to 1 bag...
ОтветитьGood info. I'm old and in no hurry so it's regular mix for me.
ОтветитьDid it stress anyone else out when they were exposing himself to silicosis and scarification of the lungs do to cement particulate. Sometimes I wish I was never trained in HAZMAT
ОтветитьExactly what i was wondering about. now, Can you mix the two and would that be in somewhere in between in terms of how fast setting ??
ОтветитьThey used to manufacture bags with a plastic liner. Now without the plastic, the bags just blow apart if you drip sweat on them while working. Higher profits, bigger bonuses for the suits. Called corporate and complained. It’s been crickets.
ОтветитьCan you throw a bag of red Quick set in with a couple of the regular yellow bags?
ОтветитьU should have water in ur wheel barrel b4 ur concert a lil easier to mix
ОтветитьThe hotter she is the harder it gets
ОтветитьSo what's the benefit of buying the original version?
ОтветитьIs it worth it? Well, Quikcrete is more expensive. That said, time is money so if it takes more time to mix your concrete the traditional way then it seems as though you’d be breaking even by using Quikcrete! Personally, after setting a few metal post brackets last week without mixing, I’ll most definitely not be pre mixing in the future.
ОтветитьDo people know about the tarp trick for mixing concrete?
ОтветитьWell Done!
Ответитьtried mixing quick-set in a bucket. hardened before i could even get it properly mixed lol.
ОтветитьWhich one do you usually use with post master? How long do you wait to set before adding 2x4s to Post Master?
ОтветитьThank you for this video that I have been looking for a week to do a repair of a metal fence. I had my wood fence repaired. The man did a great job, but "he" decided to work on a fence that separate my property from my neighbor. When I told him that's not mine, he stopped. He left but he did leave it (the fence) in a position to just pour the cement. I was not sure which one to buy until seen your video. Thank you so much, again!
ОтветитьGood video
ОтветитьAppreciate for sharing the content.
ОтветитьI’ve used the fast setting before and it does well. I have a problem in knowing how much water to use. It’s less than a gallon per bag but it never seems to all soak up and it sets too fast to allow me to poke holes in it for the water to get to the bottom. Another problem, what’s the technique to adding two bags to a fence post hole? Add one bag then water then the other bag and more water? Adding two bags at once then water doesn’t seem to get the water all the way down to the bottom.
ОтветитьThanks bubba you just answered my question
ОтветитьWrong! Fast setting is for dry pour
ОтветитьLol "ask me how I know" 😂😂😂
Ответитьsee your mix outa the bag aint all gravely i got like a ton of filler gravel wondering "where the crete at" screwed up that ya gota know tricks like add a can of paint per every 5 bags and a extra couple pounds ceramic plaster and a can of glue for that playdo icen pasty kinda smooth.... just did our side walk on straight out the bag edges gona be falling off on gravel flake luckily i got a finisher for surface covering...they should just keep filler gravel seperate and go straight crete filler is underlay..not cool to need trix instead of buy it right as set order of options offered together till then it sucks as a brand the second time it was 90 % gravel sucks especialy on tight budget every bag needs like an extra 5 pounds of actual port crete or clay...
ОтветитьI just used some Quikrete for 2 separate gates posts. The first one I put it, had no issues with the concrete drying. The 2nd one is a different story. Just poured it and, it still looks 'wet'. The first day I put it in, it was mostly sunny and hot. Been a total of 3 days so far and, it's like it's not curing all the way. I've tried to move the post and, it's definitely hardened but, it's kind of crumbly on top. (Like it's only cured for like 4 hours type look). Does anyone know what might be going on? Maybe it's just taking longer to cure, since it's not super hot? Just seems really strange.
Ответитьwhile everyone else in comment section are asking whats the difference, i noticed the word "quick" on the caption
ОтветитьHow long was it there before you broke it? Nice to see a 2 hour test
ОтветитьDoes the quick set stuff rot wood posts?
ОтветитьThe health and safety of Americans is world renound. These fellows are gonners in 15 to 20 years
ОтветитьTake out music
ОтветитьShould mix them together to see what happens
ОтветитьThank you for your video. Did you pour the same amount of water for each bag?
