Concrete workbench slab for mill attempt

I purchased some popular plans for building an affordable pneumatic power hammer, and the base of the hammer does include a large concrete slab. Not only does that increase stability, but it also prevents the impact from the hammer from causing any damage to your floor.
 
Hi! Did you make it yourself, or did you order a ready-made concrete slab somewhere? Now I need the same concrete slab, but I do not know who makes them. I found a website almightyconstructionnw.com that offers similar services, but I know how to look for other options. And please share the concrete strength indicators that you have decided to use. I am new to construction, so I am afraid I will be deceived, and the work will be done poorly. Therefore, I will be glad to receive any recommendations. Thanks.

That member made the slab themselves.
