Are you or can you stain them once cured? How long do you cure prior to sealer? Really nice edge profile btw.

My neighbors are in the concrete countertop business. I've always have thought about doing our countertops since ours need updating. Appreciate the post. Will be following

I'll be looking at the finished product. I'm moving to an older house in the future. I'll be redoing the countertops at some time in the future. Thanks for posting.LBGE, Weber Grills, Silverback Pellet grill, PBC. No I don't have a grill issue.

Chubbs said:The pack of forms is $190. I have enough leftover to do my guest bath and my egg table. My next big project is a big deck off my porch for the egg table. Going to do a dark concrete top for it. Really easy with this system.
-
This is the easiest system ever. A few of our mixes were too stiff and therefore have some major sanding to do in those areas but other than that easy to do and less than a third the cost of the granite quote before install. Once granite installed I would have to imagine it is 5x the cost.
Will post a pic once I remove forms. Them sanding like a mad man. Anyone have experience with sanding concrete?Columbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013 -

What's the cost per square ft roughly ?
im having granite installed soon, very good price for custom stone and installer its only 35 a square ft cut and installed.
I like the concrete stuff though but don't have desire to do it myself. I also have around 75 sq ft to do as well and two islands. Too much work!
looking forward to finished pics-FATC1TY

@Chubbs can the sink be removed after the project is done? I can't tell from the pictures. Just wondered from a maintenance stand point.
