kraft toolCC814 Walking Magnesium Concrete Float 24" x 3.25"

I’ve done a lot of concrete in the military so I have experience with it. I had two smaller pads at my house to do. One 27 foot walkway and 9x8 porch. This worked great. If you’re doing anything larger than that I would probably recommend getting a larger bull float. People that say it’s not heavy enough were just trying to work concrete that was setting to quickly and they should have sprayed a little water on it or starting floating it sooner. Timing is everything on concrete. This worked perfectly for my small concrete work.

Great for sidewalks. Little small for large areas. But works great for what I'm using it for.

great tool

This tool is a great float to use on small concrete jobs. It is fairly light so you have to “jigggle” it as you use it to get it to push the aggregate down and bring the cream to the surface. Once I figured that out it went a lot smoother. A standard bull float will perform better on larger concrete jobs because they’re heavier. For something like side walks or small patios this will do just fine.

At the price point, I think it was a good tool. I did my first ever concrete slab for a shed with this float, and generally got a pretty nice finish. It was hard to not get any lines when floating an 8x16 slab, but some of that may have been my inexperience.I’m not sure when I’ll use this tool again.. but it easily paid for itself on this one project.
