Weed-whip Type Screed Vibrator

cleveman

I have an electric vibrator which I mount on an alu screed board and it obviously takes two people to run it.

I'm in the market for a gas-powered weed-whip type job because I have some sidewalks coming up with no electricity available and there is a fair amount to be done.

Are these vibes heavy enough to pull some concrete along?

I would prefer to stand to the side and push, but what I see is designed to stand in front of (in the mud) and pull.

I guess I'll just be happy to be able to screed with one person and not have to bend over.

Any tips on what to get?

If your planning on doing more jobs like this where you require a gas powered vibe screed you might as well get a good one. Everyone seems to have one, multivibe, allen, wacker, and multiquip. Allen's magic screed is pretty well known. I got to go to WOC and Marshalltown was introducing one that looked pretty promising. Kind of a unique design compared to the others that I really liked. If your in central Iowa you can't be far away from them.

Thanks. I'll check into it. We call Marshalltown Methtown around here.
