@en_concreto hello how are you, I have a question, if I make the cement mix more watered down than what you are teaching in the course, does that influence anything? I mean, could it be the weakest object,? I just made one yesterday and made it sharper, due to handling issues, in order to better distribute the mixture in the mold, I put everything in it, the blotter, the fiber, and the equal parts of cement and sand, but I would like to know if when making it more watery influences its hardness ...
@esmeralda_248 , yes, excess water decreases the strength of the cement. You can use metal mesh, to avoid breakage.
What blotter and fiber did you use?
@piero13_0314 greetings, I use the fiber they recommend, and a blotter from a brand that they sell here in Argentina, the question I had was that, if the excess water weakens the concrete, but; once the piece dries it won't be resistant like the other pieces made with the thicker mix ???

Very interesting but I was hoping they would show us how to make pot molds more complex than a simple bucket, greetings
