To augur is to predict or indicate. A black cat passing in front of you is said to augur bad luck, but if you love cats you can choose to believe that it augurs good luck instead. In the past, when you said you would augur the future it meant you would predict it. That form of augur is rarely used today, but the sense of prediction â connected to an object or event â remains. Dark clouds augur a rainstorm.
My supplier can supply 3m concrete gravel boards-have no idea if I am going to be able to lift one though! If the gravel boards are level, but the arris rails slope then you are correct about having to cut the close boards to fit-I hadn't thought about that. Will have to talk to my supplier again.Cheers.y supplier can supply 3m concrete gravel boards-have no idea if I am going to be able to lift one though!

Saw the bar back and forth as you move along the top of the form with the leading edge slightly raised so it doesn't catch on the aggregate. Repeat the process until the surface is smooth and even with the top of the form. Let the concrete set for about two hours, then hard trowel the surface with a steel trowel.Take care not to overwork the concrete; this can draw aggregate too close to the surface, causing pop-outs and weakening the countertop. If water starts to puddle on the surface, let the slab rest for 30 minutes and try again.t also helps to use plenty of Portland cement and just enough water in the concrete mix. Cut the diamond lath with aviation snips so it will stop 1 in. short of the edges of the form and the blockout when installed. You also should install No. 3 (3/8-in.) rebar or reinforcing track around the sink cutout.
