Where does be the most vexing part?
Could be from the very start or anything as a matter of fact. All depends on the builder/ tradesmen.
I built on my own, I could safely say I have gained a lot more patience and experience, but I got what I wanted and I know what I have.

Does it have to be coils? If time and resources permit then tie steel with square stirrups just like you would for concrete posts (that would fit in the augered holes) and cast. Same principle I believe.timelapse wrote:Looking for steel coils to put in a post hole.
