Just pickup up a bunch of Nudura blocks.
First time I actually had them in my hands, much sturdier than expected and the 8' is nice & quick to handle.
I found a good dealer in N Fl if anyone one needs a source let me know.
His name is Tim with caribbeeicf.com in Jacksonville, ez to do biz with.
904.545.4884
also the factory rep Dustin Larson was helpful.
I'll report back after setting them up.
I'll also be using the fab form for the footings (about a $1 a linear foot) so the pour will be one shot for this 25x40 stem wall to later get a slab.
THe adjustable legs they make to set all level are nice but at $13 a pop that add up and they get buried in the job.
Kinda a waste of $400 IMO
I came up with an idea to use a piece of 1-1/4" pvc about 12" long screwed into a web every 8' on both sides.
Then a piece of 3/4" can slide inside of it and when set to right height 2 screws can be put through both pieces to lock them up.
I see if it works out.

The build was delayed a bit, so the forms are still waiting to placed, hopefully within 60-90 days
