Fantastic just what i’m looking for in back of my mobile home .Just want something to look ok for a few years until I move . Now add the white private lattice and artificial Amazon plants . Might upgrade with Home Depot artificial grass on another section .
If your ground is flat, and you soften the ground so you can just pound the 2x4's in or if you're filling in a spot that's already lower than the surrounding areayou could probably make it work. The digging is more so grass removal and evening out/flattening the ground. Personally I think avoiding the digging might be more work though.
I found this video helpful to show how it turns out if you want to do a cheap quick solution, it would look better without the pavers though just the gravel
Pea gravel is the exact opposite of what you'd wanna use in this application. You want angular stone, not round. Angular locks in on each other and once tamped is almost as good as concrete. Terrible instructions here! Don't follow.
It was a $40 quick remedy. Sometimes I’ll do that to see if I like having that feature, then I’ll spend the money and do it the right way. Sometimes I rip it out and I’m only out $40.
Exactly what I was looking for… simple, doable and cheap .. next year when I become rich I will do it professionally 😊
Not bad for under $40! Looks good too
mmm mmm bah!

Great job! Doesn't have to become a federal case. Looks good!
Haha, thanks! 🇺🇸🤘
Aren’t these going to shift over time?
Good for a few years , but You can level them up,
Nah they will be just fine for a good couple of hours
Will it work without digging? I don’t have grass just pure ground

Good method. But the unlevel ones triggered me
They triggered me too! I’ve since done some more work to it. Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘
Should use the pressure treated lumber. Those 2X4 you used will rot in a couple of years.
Oh they totally will. It was a quick patch job until I build a permanent solution.
I have done something almost 100% identical. You probably could have omitted the weed blocker...the weeds always seem to find a way. lol
They do! Worth a shot though! Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘
we put weed blocker under pebbles. Lasted almost 9 years. Not sure we want to break our backs redoing that area though. Was nice while it lasted.

The gravel is good for level ground and the pavers help keep them in place. This was definitely a cheap quick solution! Thank you for watching 🇺🇸🤘
Great video
I appreciate you 🤘🇺🇸
Looks like an easy project. Great idea. Too bad you were one short
I’m going to expand it so no biggie.
Salt water is cheapest & easiest most non-toxic grass & weed killer. Give it a few days for result.
Wood will rot in about a year and the ground wasn’t even tamped - will be an unlevel mess next year - cheap tho.
I don’t disagree. It was a simple temporary solution.
He was showing how to do something like this especially people who might be on a budget, good idea

Maybe invest in a level

Design is definitely not your strong point.
Not a designer by any means!
Complete bodge job.

Man that’s tacky
it's not worth even a dollar.
👍
Still worth more than you
