I make a cool custom concrete countertop. I tried to toss as many c\u2019s in that sentence for alliteration purposes. I learned a lot about concrete countertops through two of Cheng\u2019s books. He is one of the pioneers in the field, and shares a lot of great tips. I highly recommend you purchasing them to learn more details that I leave out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I made these countertops twice. The first one was a brown countertop that had some cracking issues. That wasn\u2019t a big deal; the slurry hid the cracks. However, we didn\u2019t like the color. It just didn\u2019t fit in, and I decided to do it again. I used the \u201cJet Black\u201d secrete color, which is what we did for our other countertops, and this looked awesome.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I make some mistakes in the video and highlight them. I also did a stupid setup when cutting the sheets of malemine on some sawhorses, and took a spill. I was really glad to not loose any fingers, and I learned a valuable lesson about setting up your cuts. I rarely make circular saw cuts on sawhorses, and prefer to do them down on the ground. I might go back to that style just to be more on the safe side.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the previous episode here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.corbinstreehouse.com\/blog\/2019\/04\/how-to-finish-kitchen-cabinets-diy-kitchen-cabinets-ep-9\/\">How to Finish Kitchen Cabinets<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is pretty much the last episode in my DIY Kitchen Cabinet series.
