Concrete Casting For Beginners 

Glad I could help!

You're very welcome!

Thanks!!

Glad to help!

Awesome!! If you'd like to upgrade, you can create your own vibration table for not too much money. We have an old video on it- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XHGnGuWf8s8.html

You don't need to calculate anything, we've already done that for you. The precise measurements will be in the description of the product on our website :)

Here :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dZoTx6nP2QI.html

It works great for pavers and stepping stones, check out some of our other videos like this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jfSJO3oBE2g.html

Yes you can!

Probably but with way more expensive machinery :)

You should use our 8084 pigment and mix it at 2 lb of pigment per 94 lb bag of cement. If that is still not black enough, you can add a sealer to make it darker- globmarble.com/concrete-color-oxide-pigment.html

The tiles will all be the same thickness if they are poured on a level surface and screeded at the top of the mold. You can add CSA which is a fast setting additive for concrete to be able to produce 2 molds per day at best. Most large production facilities just use many molds to mass produce their stones. You could cast with plaster of Paris which will let you cast up to 10 a day but the stones will be much more brittle because they are not made of concrete. By dimples do you mean bubbles? Bubbles are removed by vibrating the concrete. We sell vibration tables, and also just the motors if you want to make your own table.

@@GlobMarble by dimples i meant holes on the stone surface.

Yes that is what I was talking about

@@GlobMarble Thank you 👍🏻

Using white cement and white sand will give you the brightest white, or you can use titanium dioxide pigment. You can learn more about that here- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2tGL9echDNo.html

You can check the description of the vide, I listed all of the products I used here :)

I really wouldn't recommend that. We have a lightweight mix which is extremely durable but still very light- globmarble.com/xtreme-lightweight-concrete-mix-3.html

You can buy all of our products online, we ship worldwide :) Check the description for all the products I used for this video, and check out the website in general. we have a lot of great molds Globmarble.com

What did you stain them with?

I add pigment to the mix 70 gram for each 1 kilo cement

The color always fades after demolding, because the concrete is losing its moisture. There are two ways of keeping the color dark. The first is demolding after one week, but the downside to this is you have to wait, it will be much harder to demold, and the mold will not last nearly as long as usual. The second option is adding a sealer which will give the concrete the same color as when you wet it. Here are our sealers- globmarble.com/decorative-concretes/concrete-sealers/

@@seifalbeshti9497 What Globmarble said.... A wet sealer will keep the colors looking bright.

The water bath is a common DIY method but for large scale production people create humidity rooms because they take up less space. A cheap one to do it get a shelf you can stack a lot of the castings on, spray a bunch of water all over it and cover it with a trash bag.

You can now buy additives that cure the cast in a week or two.
