Looks great! I know what you mean about the pricing on pavers , I was looking into them recently to put down on the path the dogs have worn out in the yard since it gets super muddy which in turn makes footprints all over my house.
How long do those molds take to set? I have such a small project compared to this one I might look into grabbing one or two of some mold to make my own.

How long do those molds take to set? I have such a small project compared to this one I might look into grabbing one or two of some mold to make my own. Down here in Florida if I leave the molds in the screen room with the ceiling fan turned on it takes about 24 hrs before they are dry enough to drop out of the mold. I spray a tiny bit of pam oil in each one before I pour them also. So I would mix up the concrete in the afternoon after work, takes about 5 minutes, fill the molds, about 10 minutes, set them on that round white table in pic number 2, and run my sander on the table ( this gets the air to bubble to the top makes them harder ) for a couple of seconds. Pretty simple. Also after I empty the molds the next day I clean them out with water and a cloth, this takes 15 minutes or so. Over all a fun project. Ebay is your friend they have lots of DIY molds and stepping stones, I so want to do something nice for our Mail box. If you do something post up your pics.
