I have been doing foundations for ten years and earth work for 20 and this is the first time I have seen planks used as forms since never! I know old timers did this, I love it! Look straight and nice.

Excellent work! I seldom use duplex nails anymore as i find making fine adjustments in the form boards are easier if we use screws instead of the duplexes, maybe because we make more initial mistakes than the average guy!

What was used to waterproof the foundation behind the dimple mat? Did you have to fill the holes from the snap tie cones before water proofing and if so, what did you use? Any recommendations for finishing exposed stem walls facing the inside of the building.

I've had a channel for quite awhile, it is all things wood. I teach high school woodshop and do tree work on the weekends. Just happens that I'm building a house right now and documenting the process

I noticed the vertical stem wall (posts) were down in the footings. Is that common place if you are getting inspected?
