skybsd,

I did mine in a single pour using a plastic footer form. You can read more about them here -> http://www.bigfootsystems.com/ While it made for digging a bigger hole, I was able to install, level and backfill before I did the pour. I have construction pictures posted on my website: www.graystarobservatory.com

Thanks for the links. I need to clarify a couple of things though..,

What exactly do you mean by "back-filling"? Looks to me that you: -

Dug the hole
Installed and leveled the Bigfoot footer
"Backfilled" the footer????
Secured the tube to the footer
Poured the concrete into the tube
Left the concrete in tube to set

So..,

What's that backfilling all about?
Is the hole you dug the same diameter of the tube?

Thanks.

Regards,

skybsd
