I知 putting in a Mirafount waterer for horses. Everything is installed up tp forms which I値l be doing today.
I致e never worked with concrete. I致e read about it relatively well and understand the basics I壇 guess.
6 slab around a 12 vertical pipe for water access. Slab is 51 x 40 x 6 with the tube coming up flush to slab surface grade. Calculates to just over 7sqft of concrete I believe.
I知 not close to electricity, although I have an inverter for my truck which 杜ight run a small electric rental mixer. (Never used a mixer of any sort, but they are available locally. Or I have a barn about 1/8M away and could mix there, then transport somehow.
I would like to make this reasonably easy. It痴 a simple job, but I壇 like it to go well.
What are your recommendations for tools etc, for this job? To purchase.
What tips will make this better and go more smoothly?
What concrete would you use? Again, easy and good quality is far more important than saving a few $.
Any and all tips, thoughts, etc are requested. I壇 rather pay a little more for an easier and better outcome than 僧ake do but struggle.
