Do you want your site transformed? Became more neat and cute? And the passages even on a rainy day remained comfortable and clean? All this can be achieved thanks to the garden path. Today there are many ready-made solutions for creating a walkway, but it is not necessary to spend on them at all. You can independently make the shape for low tide, as well as the slab itself. For example, this is a pretty track of concrete and a bit tile.
You will need:
- cement;
- sand;
- tile;
- wooden bars;
- non-combustible chipboard;
- sealant;
- wire;
- instruments
First you need to prepare a form for "casting" tiles. To do this, simply take a sheet of non-combustible chipboard or other material with a smooth surface. We will use it as a base form. Next, using wooden bars, we create the form of the desired size, in our case it is rectangles. Bruks are screwed or nail, and the locations of their compounds with the base are wicked by a sealant. The form is ready.
The tile is divided into parts, in size suitable for mosaic formation. Then lay out the mosaic on the bottom of the face face up to have an idea of which drawing will turn out.
When the drawing is laid out, turn the whole details face down. By the way, if you do not have an unnecessary tile, you can also buy a variety of tiles in the store for free.
Now we prepare a solution from sand and cement in a ratio of 1 to 3. pour it into shape and reinforce future plates with wire, having to sleep into the solution.
When everything is ready, you need to progulate the form with the solution so that all the excess air and there were no bubbles in the finished stove. To do this, we can put on the shape of the board and take advantage of any vibrating tool. Another option is to simply catch a shape along the edges of the hammer.
Leave the solution to dry in a place protected from direct sunlight. After about 3 days, the plates can be removed from the form.
If there are cracks between the mosaic details, they need to be lost. This can be done with the help of a special grout for the tile, and it is possible with a more liquid solution of concrete.
We drag the gap, we remove the extra, we give the solution to dry and so that beauty gets!
And below you can see a detailed video on how to make such garden tracks with your own hands.
