Let's prioritize safety first. It's essential to carefully read and follow all the safety instructions provided on the concrete bags. Remember to equip yourself with personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses, gloves, and a respirator. Let's ensure your well-being and safety throughout this project.

Tube Forms we're about to use have proven incredibly versatile, especially in our Apiary. We primarily use them for creating foundation runners for our beehives, but they've also come in handy for constructing decks and various other applications. These forms are incredibly durable and built to outlast us. However, it's important to note that this particular method may not be suitable for every project or application. We are beekeepers first and foremost, not concrete professionals. We simply rely on the methods that work best for us. And you should do the same.

In this demonstration, we'll be using the Sakrete 12-inch Tube Form for footers on uneven terrain or hillsides. This happens to be our preferred method of dry pouring concrete, as it combines the ease of use of dry pouring with minimal waiting time between wetting the concrete. Unlike our previous dry pour video, where we had to constantly wet the concrete every hour for up to five hours, these tube forms allow for heavy saturation during the dry pour. Once poured, you can simply walk away without the need for additional wetting.

One of the fantastic advantages of using these Form Tubes for dry pouring is the ability to level them on the go. You can easily adjust the tube to ensure it remains level throughout the entire pour. Don't forget to keep a bubble leveler handy and regularly check the bubble's latitude and longitude during the dry pour.

Great information. I am convinced that sakrete is good for my project. Music is very distracting tho.

Interesting method. I don't think you showed how long the threaded rod is, how much is sunk into the concrete in order to ensure it won't pull out?
