I used to do this as a profession.
Measure exactly, it matters.
and if your unsure of the math....
Give the exact measurements to the order taker at the redimix company.

Don't forget to tell him that there are no forms except at the top rim.
He will correct for the roughness.

If your driving by a redimix plant, stop in and ask for the little plastic
slide rule type calculators they usually give a way as freebees.

I still have mine.
(but I'm so old that they may NOT be giving freebees away anymore)
