: I've posted this before and although it is takes specialized tools it is yet
: another idea for a strong back. 2"x2" square tube with
: 1"x1" angle welded to the tube. Oversized holes drilled in the
: angle to allow for form adjustments. Cost for materials around 20 dollars.
: You could drop the thing of a the roof and it wouldn't bend. TB

The "normal" boxbeam method call for you to slide the forms down the length into position. How did you modify the forms so you can drop them down at the proper spot?

Thanks
Brian
