I just formed a 35 inch long landscape slab out of Shapecrete . I used a piece of chicken wire for the form and laid a piece of fiberglass cloth and sewed it on the chicken wire around the edges. For reinforcement. I am just wondering if anyone tried this yet?

Heres a pic of my slab. It took a whole bucket of Shapecrete, it still needs to be sanded and sealed and painted.
