Footing forms done!

Got my footing forms finished yesterday, what a PITA, they don't look real pretty, but they are level and that is what is most important.
 
Everytime I thought I was level I would go back and recheck and it was off a little so I would have to start again.
 
The curves are the hardest because if your stakes aren't perfecty level then the whole thing is off.
 
I just need to get rebar and place it, then comes the cement, I may have to save a few more pennies before I can do the next step, I am guessing like 75 bags of cement, but I could be wrong, I need to actually measure it.
 
An 80 lb bag of cement should go about a foot in the form.
