Wish I'd learned that trick years ago.

You ever notice how the mix just feels different in that heat? Down here in Texas, magnesium can be too grabby on a hot day. I'll use wood if the concrete is setting up fast. It doesn't drag the cream up as much, gives you more control. Some guys just stick with one tool, but you gotta watch what the slab is doing.

Is it really that big of a deal?
