And it stoned me....like quickcrete 5000....

With about 20 days or so in the forms, the slabs are coming out and meeting the diamonds. The polisher is spinning, the discs are changing, and I am soaked. It is really amazing to work with a flat black slab and get it all the way down to where I am. It is taking probably 10 minutes a square foot just for the first pad. The first pad is the one that takes the concrete down to the point that we like it. It won't take every pad (7 steps) that long, but it will take some time.

Here is a picture of what they SHOULD look like after pad 1.

I will post more pics as I progress. I am really hoping to get a couple of pieces in sunday so that I can plumb the sink and dishwaser.
