Hi..😄
Hii
Hello how are you
Hello
What name is music????
I showed this to my uncle who is contractor and he told me to reinforce cement using fiberglass otherwise in time being i am looking at broken craft all over. It will increase load bearing capacity quite a lot. Also to properly wet the cement after hardening for few days as well (its depends type upon cement though). Also to mix waterproofing agent for flowering pots.
Nothing quite like visiting a friend's house for the very first time and seeing that everything is made of cement.
Only if they like it. Some great ideas.
You wouldnt necessarily know if they use color
My favourite part was when they started making stuff out of polymer clay instead. Definitely the best concrete content I've seen in centuries
Plaster of Paris
Right? 😒
What is the person using here? I have an 80 lb bag of cement. If I make these projects do I need to use just water or sand and gravel too?
Cement sets by absorbing water not by drying out. Take care not to let your cement dry too quickly or it will be weak and crumbly, particularly on the surface. If you are making a relatively thin cast like some shown in this video, keep it damp for at least 24 hours so that it sets properly.
Yes, it cures by hydration, so the longer it is wet, the stronger it will be. If you want it to be very strong, after the initial set up, about 8 hour, you either submerge it in water, or at least water it down with a spray bottle.
@@atmosphyrellc6067 -- It would also be stronger with the addition of some fine sand to act as an aggregate. The way cement works is that it forms crystalline rods that attach to the aggregate, and the aggregate acts as a stabilizer, because it provides something that doesn't expand or contract or absorb water or shrink as much when it cures. Also, the more water that is added in the mixing, the more shrinkage will occur.
Very helpful now I understand my first mistake
@@grizzlygrizzle Absolutely, I was just trying to keep it simple to just keep it at least from cracking. The old expression is aggregate never shrinks is true, only the cement does. So the more agg the less you will have shrinkage. I would suggest a 1 portland to 3 sand ratio for these kinds of projects. It also would be great if there was a plasticizer or water reducer added so you have better flow and less water.
@@petermoss5341 -- Have you seen any of the videos by that guy Tyler who's obsessed with concrete? I can't remember the name of his channel, but he's put out a lot of informative videos.
Wow it broke my heart when the books were soaked in the cement mixture.

Fun Bigly lol
Such a waste
Book of useless ideas, is this their inspiration?

when you dipped that book in my heart actually hurt, I'm in _pain_
The sky is the limit and here are unlimited ideas of crafting with cement. I like all the comments and advice given in the comments especially for "use that knows nothing including myself. Thanks a million.
I've always wanted my household items to be ridiculously heavy

Aye, It saves the headache of having the kids Breaking the items.
@@catsareyes6446 .. Cement is $8 a Bag..
Plus crumbling everywhere right?
@@bigricardofuego4587 It's kinda scary to have items that could break my kids head though...
3:42 I am only questioning the crab flavored pringles that's an ACTUAL thing?
I tried it few weeks ago, didn't even knew it existed. It's not bad, it just tastes like Surimi rather than Crab
SAME
Wait what there’s crab flavored Pringle’s my life is a lie
Fr
I saw those and immediately came to the comments to see if anyone else was just as bothered lol
I personally have never worked with concrete.. but they certainly are some concrete ideas.(pun I intended) . Thank you for the hands that were showing the demonstrations to looks like there were two people. Have a wonderful day everyone thank you for passing along your hacks.👍😍😎😃😁☺️🧡
No true book lover is going to ruin a perfectly good book for decoration. Doesn’t matter what it is. That broke my heart when they dipped it in cement.
Ya they could’ve just stacked the books and it would’ve looked better.
some books are garbage
Nice
Am I the only one horrified they did that books ?😲😟📚
Annie D yeah they went overboard with those books! 🤣 maybe 3 or 4 to make a small table lamp!
This is one was useless! That is what the cover says!😊
@@dabsallday9938 I was horrified they used one book as a self confessed bibliophile and collector of books I found that to be a terrible thing to do saying that I get upset when people don't use a bookmark and fold the corners of the pages !! Lol 📚😲
@@annied1827 Don't overreact so much... That was all useless books.... There will be many books in each of our houses which we want to sell or throw.... U cud use such books... That's why these are all called Diy's... Don't do sooooooooooo much of overaction......
@@chintumakam5070 I'm sure there is many books people don't want and throw away or send to charity shops etc the only advice I can give is just do a little research before doing it first you never know you may have a hidden gem I picked up a book for £1 in a charity shop only to find out it's actually a very rare book worth £900 !! And I wasn't over reacting didn't you notice the lol I put on my post ? 🙃😉
My only question is where they got them crab flavored pringles
UK! And I found them on ebay just now!
The store
what name
what name
Gopi Mavuduri I never had 🦀....but I’m sure it gross.
I wanna try crab flavored pringles now. Also this seems like your most realistic video that I have seen so far, so thank you.

@Ellie it's not a joke. i overestimated how much i would need to cover my entire body
@@beth8662 Now, this is funny
What is the deal with all these comments? It's like every other project. You buy supplies if you want to do it.
The only thing I learned from this video is that crab pringles are a thing.
lol, I knew that
I didnt

*intense crab rave music starts playing*
ery creative, artistic, useful, practical, good use of resources with very reasonable time limits. Brilliant!
This has given my lot's of ideas. My mother in-law wants me to take her out fishing, I'm going to make her some shoes before we go out.
frank...heard of karma, careful with your thoughts
There is no limit to creativity! :-) Anybody doing the book stand covered in cement should consider the weight. Books have a density similar to solid wood. Likewise, concrete planters could be heavy, too. Users should get strong anchors to support those AND make sure the ceiling they use is strong enough to support something (probably need a beam for support).

Incredible, the hands of the skillful sculptor, I will definitely make a video about a works using sand and cement, stay tuned!
A cement egg magnet. How very wonderful. So many charming and valuable cement ideas in this video. But they forgot the one in which you cement two old shoes together by the soles, to make a darling and useful tabletop napkin paperweight.
Who doesn't love the aesthetics of shoes on the table? Great idea!
Ah, yes. Thank you so much for providing these hacks. I had no idea what I’d do with the copious amounts of cement I had lying around my home.

very creative, for me I would like to see more polymer and/or resign projects. Thanks for sharing
Most of these would crumble and you’ll have cement dust everywhere
Well, you can paint them afterwards or find another way to fix it.
and look absolutely atrocious
I liked the 3 legged stool idea. I would go 4 legs and make plant stands for outdoor as they are often fairly expensive and cement lasts longer than wood. I would probably make them rectangular rather than round. I would use metal poles for the legs. Also the casting resin jewelry idea for a necklace pendant was nice.
I liked the little table made from books. Great idea for home office or library.
I like your suggestions for the 3 legged stool. Wouldn't 5 legs be more sturdy than 4? How about polygon rather than square? Metal corrodes so how about schedule 40 for the legs?
Doily bowl is Gorgeous.
I amazed at this great ideas ...i always wanted to do things like these but just wasn't sure how to execute it .....great work 💯❤ ....wow

Thanks #for sharing 👏👏👏👏👏👏💓
Nicely done! If I may, cement does not "dry", rather it "sets" or "hardens". This is important because the water is essential to the hardening process of the cement. A mix of cement that would dry out before it sets, would be fragile. Especially for tiny objects that are not enclosed during the hardening process, they need to be kept in a moist environment. Maybe just place a plastic bag lousily around them. Concrete pillars inside rivers are the hardest because they stay in water for years. They never dry out.

Should be differentiating that some of these are using cement and some plaster. Also for many of these 24 hrs. would not be enough drying/curing time.

It's pretty easy to get
Yea but who wants to pay for all that for crafts that prob dont even work??????
@@aditipatel4692 - That's a different issue than complaining about not having cement.
I'm must be bizarre, 'cause I have so much cement but wait...I do masonry work. Hmm. I love rocks too. Real old pavers that are gorgeous. Ones that archaeologists look for. I got 'em.
Bottomline: whatever you find, dip it in the cement, u wil come up with something..

So did I! What happened with the toilet paper???
me too🙈
Your house guests will NEVER use up your cement toilet paper.
I saw it on another YT. 'How to make your wife happy' .... If I got one of those toilet paper results (a lot of work!) I wouldn't be happy. Blech.
Yeahhhh, that concrete would be kinda' rough. I used to use a corncob, not concrete clad.
are you using special cement for these projects? Generally cement from Home Depot have lot of gravel whereas the one in the video looks more like a clay. Thank you so much for the answer in advance!
My guess is she is using mortar rather than concrete since I don't see any rocks in it.
quickrite, it's really fast drying
I'm so glad you asked because I was asking myself the same question. I would also like to do these little things but never wanted to ask that question. Thanks so much.
Concrete is cement + rocks/sand (or other aggregates like those). Look for plain old Portland Cement, not something like Quickcrete.
it's just like magic wow🌟🌟 you are a really star, good work, you so gifted bro💯
Me: why am I watching this ? Okay I’ll stop after few seconds. let me just watch a few more tips. Oh I watched all of it by mistake but can’t remember any
E. N Don’t worry, you don’t need to remember them. They’re just ruining stuff with cement (even though they stopped using cement like halfway through)
I forced myself to watch half of this silliness because I was so sure they would come up with something worthwhile other than new ways of polluting.
Anyone else notice half the projects are plaster not cement
