 |
|
I'm pouring a concrete walk off of our front door to the side walk, and there is a curved portion. I used strips of 1/2" plywood to form out the sides for the straight portion, but was wondering if anyone had any recommendtions as far as forming out the curves.
I was think about 1/4" plywood, but one of the curves is relatively sharp, and I'm afraid 1/4" plywood might be too flimsy. |

| I have seen 6" wide strips of hardboard siding used...it bends quite easily, and can be held in place with stakes! |

Using hardboard siding is a good idea! When you secure the boards to the stakes makes sure the sakes are at least an inch below form board otherwise it interferes with the smoothing and edging process.  |
