1. The apparatus for stamping wet concrete comprising:
- a roller, the roller including oppositely disposed ends and a surface defined by a stamp;
a receiver portion including oppositely disposed ends corresponding to the oppositely disposed ends of the roller, for receiving the roller in a rotatable engagement;
a fluid transport system, the system including at least one conduit for providing fluid for releasing the roller from the surface over which it rides; and
,a rod at each of the oppositely disposed ends of the receiver portion, the rods configured for holding separate weights in at least a plurality of positions on the rods, to adjustably weight the apparatus to control the stamping by the roller, in accordance with the tightness of the wet concrete being worked; and
, each of the rods including openings for receiving pins for holding at least one weight in at least one position.

Abstract
A concrete stamping apparatus includes a roller with a stamp forming its surface, and a receiving portion for rotatably holding the roller. There is also a system for delivering fluid to the release the roller from the surface on which it operates by spraying fluid onto the ground surface in advance of the roller. The receiving portion can be adjustably weighted, such that the roller will stamp the concrete uniformly as the concrete tightens.
