If I understand it right, you would end up with forms about every 10". I think my cousin only used the whole number forms. I remember thinking that they seemed to be spaced a little wide. The forms that seemed to knock the sheerline out of fair, are they also doing the same at the center of the deck?

I believe my cousin reduced the height by triming the offending forms 1/2" or so, whatever the erronous height was at the sheerline, from the sheerline to the centerline.
