Good job. I'd get a road roller on there and thst will add years to the project
Awesome thanks
So as its been noted, when you have experience, you can lay that gravel down the driveway as thick as you'd like it. 3", 4", 6"... just set your tailgate chains, which your boy didn't, and control depth w speed. Too easy. When i do it, you dont need a tractor and you can barely see where one load stops and the next load starts.😁😎
Boxblade for the tractor would have help you save a lot, and be useful in the longterm.
Yes you’re right
Great commentary!
I watched again and thoroughly enjoyed the commentary and the Step by step description of the steps taken! Excellent job!
Wow!
Pretty cool right?! I’m excited for you guys to come see it once the build is done!
That is the worse tailgating of stone along a driveway I have seen. Must have been a new driver. The experienced drivers can lay down a fairly consistent layer until the truck is empty.
Yep they were new drivers 🫣
How wide is that fabric please? and did they crown the driveway? And did you $15 k include the stone?
where did you get the fabric from? one roll?
Looking good, where did you purchase the fabric underlayment if you don't mind me asking?
Of course! Whitlock brothers, which is a construction supply store
@@GenerationAcresFarm I don't know. I prefer a paved road. Gravel roads are noisy and the rocks get stuck in my tire tread.
@@LaoSoftware want want want 😢
😊
Thanks
Sorry if I missed it . What kind of stone did you use for this project .
great question, we used crushed concrete with brick mixed in(that's why it has that red color to it)
how much was it to have the top soil layer removed?
He had said the estimates were $10-15 per foot at 1000 feet
Beautiful driveway. When you say $10 to $15 a foot. Is that linear foot or square foot? How wide was your driveway?
Good question, I’ll ask Scott
$15,000 for linear. $120,000 for SF. (assuming 8ft wide). Answer: It's linear.
Are you saying you paid 10-15k for that guy to scrape your ground 2”?
nooooo, haha. the quotes we were getting was 10-15K for scraping and adding rock. we did it ourselves for much less
@@GenerationAcresFarm how much just for the earth work?
Get a different driver that knows how to spread the stone hook the chains.
Yeah, the driver was new 😅
Stumps… hate ‘em.
Yes 🤪
How is this DIY when you hired it out? You just rolled out the underlayment…
We hired someone to operate the machinery but we did everything else ourselves and we orchestrated the whole thing.
This is the opposite of DIY.
