    Default Another lil ole build

    Should double what you see here (to 10 tops) then we'll dump and make 2 spots. These are approx 7 foot tall to be placed in 18-20 FOW. Each base is Approx 70 pounds of cement. Pipe dia from 1" to 3". This is another batch from the MOTHERLOAD of pipe I bought a few years back.

    The one pic is a closeup so you can see the the base a little better.

    I use 18 qt dishpans (thanks KrappieKrazy). I then run a little water back on top once they have set-up for 48-72 hours. Step on one side and the cement pops right out. No cooking oil, no plastic wrap (after all it is a plastic pan). Make sure you only fill the pan up about 7/8 of the way...DO NOT FILL IT TO THE VERY TOP.

    Building tops should be done so using the K.I.S.S. method, especially in this economy. I have about 25 cents in each one of these as my fishing/building buddy got the cement from a warehouse for free as it was busted and broken bags.
