Step 11. Take off the form
Two weeks later.
You can now take off the form-it should come apart easily enough by simply unscrewing the screws.
Presumably, you have left it for a couple of weeks and the concrete is nice and hard.
Once stripped of the form, the chair will have to be moved to its rightful place over the footing hole (once it is dug).
This chair is very heavy, so please read the warning in the introduction on page one. Actually, you probably won't so I will say it again.
A very important note.
The concrete chair is very, very, very heavy. When you try to position it you will need some strong men who know how to lift and position heavy objects, or some type of suitable mechanical lifting device. The chair is not only heavy but also an awkward shape to try and maneuver. You have been warned.
