Another 12-hour day, but I THINK we’re ready for concrete.  Building and bracing the forms has used 25 pounds of deck screws, 150 8 foot 2 x 4’s, a dozen each of 10 foot and 12 foot 2 x 4’s, 10 sheets of new ¾″ CDX plywood plus virtually all of the plywood salvaged from the forms for the shed footers and concrete columns, and 6 quarts of used motor oil.  It takes a lot of “stuff” to hold 14 tons (7 cubic yards) of concrete, which is what I hope to be ordering first thing in the morning.
