I need help

bestofour:
We are extending our front porch.  It's concrete.  The portion we have now has been etched, somehow, and it looks like there are squares in the concrete.  How do I do this?  I've looked online for templates and they are expensive and I can't imagine the people who built this house went that route.  If I can somehow make my own template how do I pick it up and move it without messing up the concrete?

bayou girl:
Sheri, a friend of miine did this, i will ask her tomorrow.

Jim:
Can you take a pic of what the etching looks like and post it?

bayou girl:
Sheri, my friend's husband did his by marking the concrete with a t-square (he wanted it in squares) and then using a power saw with a diamond blade.  she said it was time consuming and messy, but they did a whole house, not just a porch.

bestofour:
Jim, it doesn't show up too well.  It looks as if ceramic tiles, 6 x 6, were laid on the wet cement and then removed.

Jen, they did it on dry concrete?
