How Do You Cut Designs In A Concrete Driveway?
Concrete is among the most commonly used materials for paving driveways because of its durable and long lasting nature. However, most concrete driveways are installed on a budget and can lack a degree of creativity and originality. This issue is one that can usually be remedied cost effectively and quickly. Using only basic tools, it can be accomplished by just about anyone by cutting a seemingly endless combination of lines. Lay out the design to be cut in the driveway, locating and marking the corners using the tape measure lumber crayon, and then snapping cut guide lines using the chalk line. Set the depth of the saw blade to 1 inch; this shallow depth will avoid cutting any reinforcing steel that is run throughout the driveway. Stretch the garden hose to the cutting area, with enough slack to be able to span the driveway. Set the saw on the first line to cut (which line you cut first is not important), and gently push the running blade through the line. Keep the garden hose running
