I have pre-cast cement stairs that has a large hole in the center riser. I have images if I would only send them. When to my local hardware store and purchased the following, 1/4" plywood, binding wire, and some 1/2" chicken wire. They satated that I sould get the reinforced contrete. I have an idea
of taking the plywood, sliding it into the hole with binding wire secured on the plywood to pull it back out and form a surface on the inside of the riser. I was then going to take the chicken wire and place it verticaly in the riser for the mud to hold on to. Am I thinking in the right direction. Does this seem like to will work, and or do you have any better ideas. Thank you in advance.
