Looking good, Don, now watch the slab get smaller and smaller - - - - lol When do you hope to have her finished?
Hope you are enjoying Duncan. I used to have lots of family there but they have all since passed on. Does Haliburton still call it home?.

Ain't my 1st rodeo @ concrete. Originally Posted by LIFESTYLZ

Mesh was pulled up @ least 3 " in a 6" slab.
Concrete also had fibermesh in it.
Got any other advise on how to build a shop?
