this video is about making concrete wall caps, my brother had a job replacing them and over the winter I made the forms and caps and he sent the pictures of the final wall finished. All my videos are my ways and ideas, I always suggest anyone doing any type of work to consult professional help. www.amazon.com/shop/mikehaduck

I can always tell when someone is genuinely trying to pass on some knowledge by how simple they explain things. Sometimes people try to over complicate things to impress, I like how you are experienced enough to provide genuine ideas without needing to "honk your own horn". I'm making caps for an outdoor fireplace this weekend and I will benefit from your experience and methods. Tremendous thanks to you sir!

This may sound dumb, but I have been a DIYer/handyman for many years...and you helped me stop being so afraid of concrete. Every time you say, "No bid deal," I think "I can do that." Thank you, sir. Great fan of your videos.

Nice video. In the UK, I usually tap in a piece of beading with a round edge into the mould on each side, after all the wet concrete is in place.. This will be removed when set to form drip edges for rainwater- preventing water making its way onto the brick face. To ensure this thinnish beading comes out easily, I cover it with cling-film.

I was thinking the same thing for the drip, here in Ireland I think it probably cost more to make than to buy in a precast yard. Them premixed bags of concrete are used a lot in the US don't see them much here.

Mike, with your help my dad and I were able to patch up my front stoop. I love watching you work and your explanations are amazing. An old timer showed me a trick with a form like that where he pulled the blade out of my sawzall and made an impromptu vibrator. I know you said you don't use it but I thought I would pass the tip along.

I have a small statue in my garden and have been considering buying a stone to put the statue on. My raised beds for vegetables are 4x8x16 blocks so I was going to make a stand on the sides and back for the statue and plant some shade loving plants underneath for contrast. This video filled the need for my platform top! I will use some quarter round for the top and cove along the base and give it my best! Again, Mike you are a knowledgeable craftsman that is willing to share your trade and skills! thank you very much!

I have to say that the more I watch your videos the more I am impressed at the wide range of masonry you are skilled at. I spent 17 years as a bricklayer/laborer and a couple years doing concrete work. I've been on my own for 2 years doing "a little bit of everything", from repair, patching, pointing, etc. It's been a learning experience. Seeing you do everything makes me want to keep pushing and learning. Thank you for the videos

hi Mike good work. some people are asking you if its worth it, its like saying to Michaelangelo when hes laying on his back in the Sistine chapel if its worth the trouble of laying on his back to paint the ceiling. Its about the satisfaction of creating something and seeing the finished product that is the pleasure, no matter what it is. Keep up the good work Mike, its great to see a craftsman at work.

Really liked your video. Would this thickness of concrete be suitable for a garden type of bench. Thanks for sharing.

Love the video. Do you use the wall cap for seating? How wide is the cap and how wide is the wall? Thanks of all you do.
