CONCRETE MIX

Premix Bags
Premix bags of concrete is the easiest.  They are readily available in every home improvement store.   They are also very inexpensive.  The generally come in 50, 60 and 80lbs bags.  Simply add water to the mixture until you achieve the desired consistancy.   You will want your finished mix to be wet.  A thicker, dryer mixture will make it harder to release the trapped air.  A wheel barrow works perfect for large batches.  A bucket for can be utilized for small batches.

Make Your Own
Some choose to mix their own.  The formula for mold concrete is one part portland cement, one part silica sand and two parts gravel.
