For Mother's Day I fixed an eagle statue for my mom. The process ended up being much faster and cheaper then my original plan of making a silicone mold and casting new parts. In the video I show you the process and materials I used for this project. you can use this method to fix all your broken concrete objects.

That was amazing! Your mom will be so happy!

Best concrete/sculptures repair video I’ve found...can easily see your grandparents DNA and craftsmanship shine through..your attention to detail is very impressive. Not sure what you do career wise but you always have the stone mason field.

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 4 года назад

Thanks! Usually I am making furniture, but also like any sort of sculpture work as well.

Awesome job on the eagle and also other projects on your videos and you give a good ideas and solutions on your work that you do. thank you.👍

@dave2u863 7 лет назад

Great job. I had my doubts about the quick-crete, I've never had much success with it, but you did a terrific job and I think I need to try it again and use a bit more patience :-) I bet your mom was thrilled, the eagle turned out awesome. Thanks for sharing....

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 7 лет назад

Thanks! Patience is key, the set up time is so fast I naturally wanted to rush, but for vertical surfaces it really only gets workable past the 10 minute mark, before that it just wants to slide around. It's held up so far so she's happy.

@akapatience5571 5 лет назад

Looks great! I have an old plant stand that I rescued out of someone's garbage back in the 80's! I've used it as is all these years! Now it seriously needs attention...I was leaning towards your method but my H recommended an epoxy concrete adhesive. After going his route initially, it's still in need of the concrete. Thanks for the video!

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 5 лет назад

This is beautiful. I also acquired a goose that my grandmother used to dress for every season that was on her front porch and it sat at my recent house and due to some irrigation issues it started to get weathered badly and cracking and I want to fix it for my kids all sit on this thing especially son lol. You know in 40 years from now he comments something similar haha

@oqsy 5 лет назад

Thank you for sharing this video. We have a large turtle sculpture in our backyard that is of sentimental value to my daughter. The head was broken off either in moving or landscaping work soon after moving in. I think this method looks perfect for doing the repair. I will likely drill holes and use rods to reinforce and stabilize the joint. This video may resurrect a piece that I’ve been afraid to tackle for years. Thank you again!

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 5 лет назад

No problem. Plus, at the time i made this I couldn't speak for the longevity of the repair, but it has been almost exactly two years and is still going strong.

@oqsy 5 лет назад

You did a fantastic job on the statue. I'm repairing Cherubs to put on top of a cement fencing where it was originally. This video is so helpful because I can now see that it does set quickly but will stay in place fairly well. Mine is missing pieces so I will need to fill in areas and maybe work on several steps. Thank you!

@acsmith7818 7 лет назад

Buy clear mate Brick/Cement sealer and apply several coats over the entire statue and it will last a much longer time. Behr , Valspar and Homax all make good products.

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 7 лет назад

Hey thanks for the tip. I want to have it sealed before winter and just haven't had the time to product search.

Great job well done, I have three small concrete sculptures to fix and paint, another person said to coat it with water based latex paint primer. you agree?

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 4 года назад

I prefer oil-based paints for anything outdoors. They are just more durable. A contractor friend of mine said to use Thompson Water Seal (they make a variety for Masonry) it you want to clear coat it. I don't think my mom ever put anything on there, so it's still holding up without a finish.

Amazing job!!! I have a clay garden frog which is chipped. Once fixed I'm thinking of priming, spraying and clear coating it. Any thoughts?

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 3 года назад

That sounds reasonable. It's more expensive but for outdoor pieces I spend the extra money on UV resistant paints and clear coats. Nothing outside will last forever, but it does help with longevity.

@timetryp5473 6 лет назад

I wish you'd have shown the tools you used for carving the features into the cement. I am going to try and repair a garden statue that fell apart into several pieces. The intricate design restoration is what concerns me - we'll see how it goes. Nice, instructional video.

@HoneyBadgerWoodWorks 6 лет назад

They aren't specialized tools, it is a cheap set of clay/sculpture tools I have had for years. You can get something similar on Amazon for like 10.00. The one I ended up utilizing the most was a wooden clay tool with a pointed and tapered end, similar to a thick knife blade. Something like that you can make out of a scrap piece of wood.
