Making cement pavers

[want2learn]

I'm not sure about cost but the satisfaction of making them to your own design would be a benefit. Also I guess if you had limited access to a backyard it would be beneficial to make them onsite.

I told someone once I was gonna make some and they laughed. I'm happy to see people actually do "roll their own" so to speak.

I love the idea, i was in the process of designing my next landscape project along the side of the house and needed to find a paver. I already have a cement mixer i bought last year for my edging so i guess i can pull it out again and have some fun.

Can you use TP as form work? and what would you need as a base to keep the bottom flat and flush with the form work, when you take away the form work?

Brilliant idea, can't believe I hadn't thought of doing this myself! Sorry for the hijack... but how thick would I need to make pavers for a basketball court (6x4m)? I am thinking around 60mm with a bit of gal mesh to reinforce the paver.
