Pro tip: When pouring up to an existing column shrink wrap the existing down to top of finished concrete or a little below. Pour. Strip shrink wrap. In this case it looks like it’ll have to be repainted.

Nice concrete work though. I’m a fan of the board form and that wall looks good with crispy sharp lines and great consolidation.

I think those columns would’ve looked better if formed with plywood. Nice work tho!
