Building an Outdoor Fire Table Using Plaster
What happens here
To ensure durability and a seamless finish, the table's edges and corners need attention. The creator installs metal corner bead (also known as corner tape) along all the exterior edges of the cement board using self-tapping screws and a hammer. This provides a sharp, reinforced edge that will prevent plaster cracks. Next, a waterproofing membrane (Mapei AquaDefense) is applied using a roller, coating all cement board surfaces. This step is crucial for protecting the fire pit from outdoor elements and ensuring its longevity.
