Abstract:
1. A method of forming a post sleeve within a post hole in the ground to include a post receiving cavity to insertably receive and support a post, the method comprising: supporting a post sleeve core within the post hole with the aid of an elongate installation member such that, uncured material in the post hole at least partially surrounds the post sleeve core while the post sleeve core is attached to the elongate installation member, the post sleeve core including a locking element for maintaining the post sleeve core at a desired height along a longitudinal length of the elongate installation member; allowing the uncured material to harden around the post sleeve core, including directly below substantially the entire post sleeve core, to form at least a portion of the post-receiving cavity of the post sleeve; and removing the post sleeve core from the hardened material to expose the post receiving cavity to receive and support the post.
