Made another concrete fire table/pit, thought I’d share. This one runs on propane so I needed to have an access panel on the one side. Client wanted their family monogram etched into the side for a personal touch. Behold the beauty and power of hand crafted concrete: [ATTACH=CONFIG]23332[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]23333[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]23334[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]23336[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]23335[/ATTACH] ![http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=22748&stc=1&d=1357782404](http://www.nyspeed.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=22748&stc=1&d=1357782404) ---

nice job. is the form re-usable so that you can quickly mix up more concrete and keep creating them or do you have to break it apart to get it off? ---

The majority of the wood is reusable, usually not the smaller strips. The foam is not salvageable. ---

Do you agitate the concrete after it is poured? Or, do you use a fine enough mixture that you don’t get many air pockets? Looks AWESOME!!! Can you PM me any links that you found useful or did you just learn by trail and error? ---

^ no, well, sorta. With this process, i spray the concrete in place and then use a paint brush to lightly “disturb” the suface to eliminate airbubbles on the mold surface. There is a ton of information out there and youtube videos for “GFRC” concrete, but no matter how much research i do, there’s no substitue for experience. This is not a wet cast process so there isn’t a need to vibrate the surface. ---

this particular one was $3200. As i continue to build up my portfolio… i’m looking to into the price range of about $5K for a fire table similar to this. ---
