Where is the scaffold system? Walking on the whalers is rather idiotic. Not
only are you working unsafe, you are pulling your walls out of plumb!
work smart not hard. advance forms with a crane pump. tie build pour. we
do about 5 basements a week. not little ones either!
WHy are you guys not pumping from above? Fuck dragging that system all

Too bad the pump was not used properly, you know, like hanging the system
overhead instead of dragging it in the mud and hanging into the wall.
@scooter17568 I agree, Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
@TheRobertdavie I like to get them in the dry quick too but we use a good

wow, good one. glad you can find beauty in concrete, lol,. i love when the
faming goes up and covered before it rains. lol. try that.
Nice. Even with the snafu, those pumps are still far better than the ol’

Thanksgiving.

What kind of cement do you use? is not mortar right? Also, what do you do
for the holes that have a stone with a lot of loose material?
What are you replying to ? Walls like that don’t wobble.
How do u know its even and not wobbly, or a bulk that sticks out?
