I’ve got about 150′ of curb and gutter to do and although I’ve done a lot of form work, this is my first shot at curb an gutter. Does anybody have a link to a good source of info on form design. I would just go out an buy the movable forms but I doubt I’ll ever do this again.
Thanks
Sincerely;

I wish I could show you but most curb and gutter around here is hand form , no forms. Its poured very dry like a 2 inch slump. stack up with a shovel and then they will have a profile cut out of plywood to cut to shape.
That is th e way I've seen it, only with a form board for the back heel.

yes, a 1x8 for the heel and a piece of formica type brown board about five inches for toe. stack it up, then screen with a profile board.

Just find the nearest concrete crew and ask them...most should have some tricks to pass along.
