A different take on things . Rotated each frame individually with the grid on in AE and crossreferenced the horizontal and vertical points to keep it as straight as I possibly could . <| sep |> We ' re finally getting bandwagon fans ! <| sep |> Oh . Well , yeah , that ' s my point . I was using Montana as an example of a place without big cities . And yeah , you ' re right , Montana isn ' t Midwestern . I ' m tired lol <| sep |> You have to click the wifi button on the bottom right <| sep |> Alright wether your friends in the brass department could do something with it well thank you , if not well thanks anyway for attempting . <| sep |> Soon we will find out . <| sep |> You actually want the rebar on the tension face , and closer to the face where you are concerned about cracking the visible surface . For actual structural support and crack control , the rebar closer to the surface is betterThe issue is that the welded wire mesh is more than sufficient to supply that for a kitchen countertop use a decidedly non load bearing application and therefore it doesn ' t matter that much if its a little out of place . In the middle of the slab is probably the least effective place you could put rebar you want to actually use .
