Question again about post and pier

[ericlp]

Post and pier looks like I am gonna get a cement truck for 4-5 yards.

When you form your pier/corner blocks, do you got to stake it? Does anyone know where one could rent stakes to temporarily hold the forms down while pouring concrete?

Thanks!

You have to stake the forms or they will move and bend out even if they are made of 2x12s. You can rent stakes from Puna Rental in Shipman Business Park in Keaau.

Thanks, I'll look into it.
