Earnings on the site. Manufacturing technology of concrete vases without forms

On the bases of construction can be found ready-made pots for flowers, for example, here it is:

Paint concrete products is not necessary. It looks interesting, but the price bites, especially eating need a few.

In the summer they are in demand from the owners of suburban areas. They are made, cast in special forms in small industries. Read the surface layer after curing - with a nozzle polishing grinder stone.

Fabricated, cast them here in such a plastic mold. In principle, the prices are not so big and for making the most of vases. If you need to make for yourself a few pieces - it is not profitable. And if you do in order for customers at an attractive price - more interesting. But keep in mind that the forms of wear. One form may suffice for a few tens fills. And the number of manufactured products will be limited to the number of forms.

The product is gaining strength two or three days. And if you get a big order, it is clearly not enough 2-3 forms. But there is a simple way how to produce without any form in one working day before the 10 round pots (provided that you have honed your skills, they got the hand, as they say).

There is such a technology - punched casting. Look at the process of making concrete vases somewhere in Southeast Asia:

It's simple. It is necessary to have the pipe, which are driven into the ground (or into a wooden stick stand) and the rotary template pattern, which rotates the pipe to the sleeve. Leca must either move apart (to create the desired thickness of the product), or the need to use two patterns: one to create the inner surface, and the other - to the outside, decorative relief surface.

Trying to drive the pipe into the earth, sand and pour laminating pattern shape - future internal cavity of the pot. Then we shift the pattern further from the axis

Next, knead the liquid cement milk and pour them a sand mold. Puts reinforcing ties. The video - the wire. But it is better thin rebar.

We begin to pour concrete solution pasty form and laminating patterns. At the end of the process water the product is to be a grout or a cement, diluted in water.

Take out a vertical tube around the edges and remove the excess solution

After two or three days, carefully turn over pot, clean off the sand and grind the necessary part of the pot surface.

The solution I would add another fiber of core layers, and further zaarmiroval metal or plastic mesh. For greater plasticity of the solution, you can add softener.

Reinforcement very well increase the strength of the product. Even if the future owner of a damaged pot, crack, then it does not fall apart. And the cracks can be repaired and zapolirovat solution.

This simple and perhaps ancient technology are beginning to make use of our masters, adapting them to the garage conditions. Do not need the sand, if you have inside core, for example, any metal vat. The process of manufacture of the pot in the garage conditions you can see in this video:

At what price to offer these products? I think the price should not be higher 1,5-2 thousand. rub. The material on the pot of this size - it is cement, sand, fibrovolokno, reinforcing plastic mesh and fine fittings. In total, they account for no more than 500 rubles. on the product.

Could this be an additional year earnings for the summer resident? I think it is. Promotion: social networks, ads on Avito etc. Competition must be exactly the price. And the quality is not to limp. Do not try to make a lot at once on a single product. This can be done, provided that you are doing unique things.

By the way, still uncured surface of the pot, you can make a thread, apply a relief pattern. For example, a branch of the tree. Or print, make print larger sheets of plants and the same large branches. But it is better to do an imitation of fossils. For this branch plants and leaves are applied to the uncured surface of the pot and poured in 2-3 layers of liquid cement:

Obtained the stone of the plant or plants in the rock as the ancient fossils.

Or makes silicone mold for forming such a pattern of fossils:

And this form of the perimeter shtampuete patterns. Stamps can be different. The main thing - not much press that would not deform the geometry of the pot.

That is such a method will give the product exclusivity and artistic appearance. Then the price can be increased. Dare, who are interested! It's simple, you only need to see a lot and do not be afraid to do this.
