10#s of poop in a 5# bag

This probably doesn't interest anyone. But anyone who has ever done concrete form work may find it intriguing. We (2 of us) spent 2 weeks inside pre-building it (was nice being inside during the snow). The outer circle (face of plywood)is 13'-8" in diameter. The brick shelf has a waterstop and the inside piece is a cone. This was the tough part as it has to be totally suspended with no support from the bottom. The inside cone presents a problem as the concrete will want to float the formwork.

Today we install the 8 stainless steel anchor bolts and pour it tomorrow. Weather permitting..........
