Showerthought: learning the 'jitterbug' trick for wet concrete saved my back after 12 years

I was fighting with a sticky mix on a driveway in Portland last summer and an old-timer showed me to tap the float edge lightly instead of dragging it. Cuts my finishing time by almost half on those tricky batches. Anybody else swear by a weird little move like that?

Buddy of mine wrecked a whole slab learning that the hard way.

Twelve years? Man, that's wild you didn't learn that sooner.
