    Concrete patio
    Does any body have an idea on how to add single line designs in a poured concrete patio?Similar to the lines that divide poured concrete sidewalks!

    They make plastic control joints that you lay down in the concrete after finish , IT is plastic, Looks like a"T", after concrete is dry you get hold of the top of the "T" and pull it off. Another way, when concrete has been finished use a nylon string that will leave the size line you want , or small size rope. To do it, have someone on each end hold what you use firm you get about middle ways ,raise line up and let loose ,then ones on ends pick up line. go to next place and repeat. HOPE this helps ,IF it does Please rate my answer .
