It’s always nice to see the girls show up in a video. It just makes me smile to see them. Learning to run the cameras is a good idea. My sister has a Subaru.Tell Hannah to get the timing belt changed when it supposed to be done or some engines can be seriously damaged if it breaks. Have a great day and the driveway turned out very nice.
Mike I didn’t miss the hand clap at the beginning. By the way I do miss the intros and extros from your faithful and talented viewers. Glad to see the girls in your vlog.
Liked your Yinz statement. I was born in Martins Ferry, Ohio and raised in the Ohio valley area. Not far from youins. lol I have often been asked "What does youins mean" and my favorite reply is the Youins means 'You All, plus one. Have a day!
A pool is a hard thing to justify. Expensive to install , purchase , keep it maintained , etc. We have thought about it around here for over a decade and to be honest it wouldnt get used more than a dozen times a year. The same reason I dont have a pontoon boat.
I grew up on a horse farm, until I joined the Navy. Since then I have always lived in cities (except when deployed). I really enjoy watching you and the family work in the great outdoors. I often think, that tractor is great, look at all the things you can do with it. I've got to get me one of those. Then I come back down to earth and realize I don't "need" one. Still, watching your videos allows me to live vicariously for a few minutes each day. Thanks!
Couldn't agree more about spreading stone by pushing backwards with the land plane. I have to do it all the time maintaining our steep road that gets the "rumble strips" in it. That said, I'm custom making a 6' land plane that is attached to a quick attach plate and mounts to the loader so I can do the same thing while driving forward. I almost have it finished, except for finding a used land plane, a quick attach plate, and the time to modify all of it and weld it up....lol.
That rabbit is funny. I have several rabbits and a couple of skunks. They wait for me at work. I bring them apples, carrots ect. They all get so excited to see me. God bless
Sooo Happy to See All the Ladies on the Vlogs ❣❣❣ Great Job in changing the Head Lights there Hannah and don't give the Cop's Probable Cause to Pull you over for that Headlight especially at Night. Stay Safe ❣❣❣
Congratulations Melissa you are going to get your swimming pool before the driveway gets paved I think this means you are getting closer anyway??? Hey Hannah of course you can change a light bulb. Driveway is looking good Mike. Thank you for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter. Ed
Idea for you. Would putting in a few piers and installing used outdoor pallet racking help keep the RRPC tidier. You could put lumber, firewood baskets, and attachments on it freeing up space in the yard.
I have four sections of 8'x8' pallet racking with a simple metal shed roof that I store my firewood on. Each one holds 1.75 cords. Thinking of getting several sections of 12' pallet rack, putting them back to back with a gable roof over the top and two tiers for storing implements on pallets.
Mike you need a roller ,I got one and it stops a lot of the rain washout . like you said a 6 ft is a perfect size to crown a road a pass each side, get a trailed vibrating one with its own engine.
I agree with you about the Subaru, Mike. I've owned several. Even with my 1993 Legacy, which sats much lower to the ground, I've never been stuck in the snows of Anchorage, AK. I'll never be so stupid to say that you can't get stuck but never have in over 30 yrs. When the snows were over bumper high, I'd drive my 4x4 pickup, otherwise, it was always my Subura!
Good morning Mike and Melissa, Hanna and Eva, and Hunter. Looking good around there and another good lesson with the land plane. Thanks for sharing with us, Fred.
Yessir, that "Grader Scraper" is worth it's weight in gold. I have the same model on a 40hp Kubota, 6-foot is perfect for crowning those gravel drives. Great video, Thank you.
Good evening Morgan's!! Hope all is well. Looking forward to the 🎆 fireworks. Have a great rest of your week. Mums place is looking good. Thanks for the video. Have a day.
MELISSA!!!! There's Hope! Mike said you'll have a pool before he paves the lot! And he said " Im not saying I'd ever pave this either" (7:15 mark) .I couldn't believe what I heard, had to replay that clip 4 times!
Kudos on the crown, keeping it high will solve a lot of the problems with the side of the road washouts and it does not hurt of there is a little dirt in it, I've found. Up in UpState NY, we found that shale was even better for building driveways and back roads. It packed down like concrete and would not wash away like gravel (fine stone as you call it).
Good morning on another pretty day in MidMo. On the screened porch listening to the birds. About time to go turn on the water for the sod we patched some spots with. Have a good day!
I have limestone too I put calcium after then it really packs. And no dust. We are way up north in manitoba Canada so I also use it for ice melt. We have lots of ice and cold but it works great
Gonna have to create a ditch that pitches water into the ditch and rip rapping the entire length of that ditch with 3 to 6” stone. Will catch and slow the flow of that run off.
The land plane sure does a nice job. I've seen you work on your driveway numerous times now and it seems like its just not routed well for the water. I think you either need to build up the stone several inches higher so you can effectively divert water to the sides, or you need to reroute the driveway so it doesn't follow the fall line
One nice feature on these Land Pride land plane is that the blades height is adjustable on each side. To crown a road, you can set one side lower than the other and let the blades do the work for you instead of trying to incline the whole tractor.
Yea you can definitely adjust them, I just like to keep the land plane level and do it the way I did because it's faster and easier for me. Also if you were wanting to pull some stone back up a driveway you would have to keep adjusting, or make sure sure your passes are in different directions for each side of driveway
I remember a time before box blades when we used a straight blade behind a tractor. You could angle it and drop one edge to shape a crown. More like a road grader. After that, take the land plane and work each side to take out ripples made by the straight blade.
All we ever have had is a straight blade. If the drive is too flat, we drop the right lift lever with the crank and pull some back to the middle. I turn the blade around to smooth. I’m not sure I could accurately back up the 300 yards of relatively flat drive up on top and I’m not ever going to back down the hill. That’s a recipe for a serious accident as steep as it is. I might experiment with turning the blade around and knocking out some of the rolling humps - those tend to build when the front goes over the top so the blade jumps up and then gouges. Good idea.
Interesting you say that just over 3 tons is about all you’d want to pull with the “grocery getter”. I have that same F150 crewcab truck except with the 5 liter V8 and I’m pulling 5+ tons quite regularly. (No question the 3.5L Ecoboost in your truck is even better for pulling). The key factor in allowing me to safely tow more weight is a load equalizing trailer hitch. Although inflatable shocks or air bags in the rear axle will help stop sag, it doesn’t transfer any of the load to the front axle. An equalizing hitch, properly sized and set up for your tow vehicle and trailer, can shift a substantial portion of the load to the front axle, allowing you to pull much higher loads safely and comfortably. It takes a few more minutes to hook up but it’s well worth the time!
Sure you can pull more weight but can you stop it too? That's where so many people get in trouble pulling trailers with pickups. General rule of thumb is never haul more weight than the combined weight of the vehicle and trailer carrying it. Come up behind a stopped vehicle and try to stop, that weight will push you right into a rear end collision. Electric brakes just don't cut it when stopping a heavy loaded trailer. Those surge brakes, (hitch activated) work pretty good but nothing stops a load like air brakes.
Since at the end you like backing up to spread to reduce the washboarding effect, would a box blade be better for the application of crowning? The crown in my driveway is a bit high, from rut base to crown center about 3 inches above my ankle! So needs to be shortened. ( last improved in 1989!!). Gotta get tractor first😃👍
Just want to tell you I received a yellow Simple Strap today in the mail. It is going to be wrapped around some lumber yard boards in the very near future.
We call it soil cement in East Texas, and is simply mixing in portland cement with the subgrade material. This is done by placing the cement on top of the subgrade with a bulk cement tractor trailer rig with special dispensing tubes. The amount used is dependent on many factors to numerous to mention here. After the cement is placed a machine that looks like a giant troy-built tiller, and is called a stabilizer, mixes the cement and a layer of subgrade together while adding water to control dust and begin hydration of the cement. This is followed by graders and compactors which develop the final grade. This must all take place before the cement cures. That's why they always seem to be in a hurry.
I learn a lot from the videos but the comments really add to the story. Where does all the gravel go? I order 20 ton at a time but I never seem to have any.
A cutting edge will help to preserve the land plane. Without it and if you do enough grading it will wear it out and then you will have to have it cut out and replaced. Once it is worn it is to late to add a cutting edge.
Well great job Mike and wow Hanna has sure grown up in to a pretty young lady. And Mike I'd say that new stove for Melissa would be cheaper than a pool but hey a pool would be Nice to come on Mike think about the ladies. I'm trying Melissa Stay safe Morgans
Just want you to know I felled and bucked my first two trees this week. I also am making a Renewable Energy Processing Station in my back yard. Notice I said station, that way it can be the REPS for short. I think Melissa and the girls will like that!
I see you have used 2 different tractors in your videos . I have a Mahindra like the red one you used ? Which one do you like better and why did you change?
Good morning all, Phil here from Kansas City. The Covid-19 shutdown is affecting my ability to re-order at the Stihl store, 3 of the 4 models I ordered are out of stock. Have a Day.
- Going to have some pretty “fancy schmancy” company for 4th celebration.😂 Nothing like a new load of gravel for the driveway. - Your taken super care of the power equipment. Washing, maintaining and covered storage.
Wondering how the pond is making out with the rain? Mike I seen a video were Hunter even made motions for a pool, seems like your getting out numbered ! Remember Happy Wife Happy Life👍
Hey Mike, You do realize when you use the land plane backwards you are using it rock against normal probably A36 steal, not the Abrasion resistant steal it has on the cutting blades forward? It works yes, but the steal won't last over the years that way, blades are made to bolt on replace, that support steal will probably have to be cut out and new welded in.
My LP Grading Scraper has replaceable cutting edges on both sides so going backwards is no issue. I ended up bending the metal on my cutting edge on my previous one, however it didn’t have a replaceable edge so it got mangled when I hit a rock.
Hi, I think it's great that you have a 4thparty planned. But I am concerned for your beautiful Goldens. Fireworks are frightening for your dogs? Will they be prottected, I hope/
Great video like always. Archie is growing fast and training is progressing very well. I’m guessing that by episode 2000 there’ll be a ground breaking video for the new pool. Mike.....she’s relentless so give in now. Besides with Melissa’s $$ from the firewood business it’ll be paid for in no time lol. Take care everyone.
very timely video for me. I'm on the fence on purchasing a land plane or box blade for my 1000' fairly level gravel drive. 10-12' wide. Sub Compact green machine and JD doesn't make a land plane for it with scarifiers. The search is on.
Hannah looked like she had had a tough day. She also looked like she was discussed about having to replace the headlight again. At the end of the video, she seemed to be perking up while trying to play fetch with the dogs. Though, it did look like more of a game of I will throw it, then come and get it from you, and then go back and throw it again. My dog used to play that game when she thought I needed more exercise.
Thanks for the video. Thank you Eva for the camera work you are fourth child but first in our hearts.
It’s always nice to see the girls show up in a video. It just makes me smile to see them. Learning to run the cameras is a good idea. My sister has a Subaru.Tell Hannah to get the timing belt changed when it supposed to be done or some engines can be seriously damaged if it breaks. Have a great day and the driveway turned out very nice.
Couldn’t agree more on incorporating the girls in your vlogs 👍
Mike I didn’t miss the hand clap at the beginning. By the way I do miss the intros and extros from your faithful and talented viewers. Glad to see the girls in your vlog.
@@jamesmorse4110 I wonder what happened to the intros and outros? I haven’t heard they can’t use them.

Do the right thing Mike and get your family a pool! Have a day!
A pool is a hard thing to justify. Expensive to install , purchase , keep it maintained , etc. We have thought about it around here for over a decade and to be honest it wouldnt get used more than a dozen times a year. The same reason I dont have a pontoon boat.
Pool requires a lot of maintenance time, it will take away from everything else.
Naw, a pool is a money pit. Fix the pond and put up a rope awing.
I meant a rope swing.
Good morning Morgan’s 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

You can crown or cut a V by adjust the tilt of the land plane using the lift arm leveling assembly on the 3pt hitch.
Kudos on the crown, keeping it high will solve a lot of the problems with the side of the road washouts and it does not hurt of there is a little dirt in it, I've found.

Good morning on another pretty day in MidMo. On the screened porch listening to the birds. About time to go turn on the water for the sod we patched some spots with. Have a good day!
I just purchased a rhino grader scraper. GS96. My driveway is wide. I love it.
I have limestone too I put calcium after then it really packs. And no dust. We are way up north in manitoba Canada so I also use it for ice melt. We have lots of ice and cold but it works great
Gonna have to create a ditch that pitches water into the ditch and rip rapping the entire length of that ditch with 3 to 6” stone. Will catch and slow the flow of that run off.

Good job. My opinion is we can never win the battle with mother nature. The best we can ever do is work with her and adjust accordingly.
Pitch the drive, Dig out a ditch and rip rap it to slow the water velocity will a fix that run/wash off the road
Great and timely video - have. to rejuvenate a road on our property in the Rockies ....and still learning how to best use my B2650
Great job Hannah being able to change her own headlight, most dont even attempt it.
Lots of heavy rain on Tuesday, that pipe at your moms did its job.

why not use the frontend loader to level rock--level bucket forward to clip off high spots and slight downward angle of bucket to backdrag

Mike - another good one with good info & demonstration. Are we ever going to get to see the Africa Room?
Imagine that...a subaru headlight out! I love subarus but they ALWAYS have headlights out. Great video as always!!!
When you do this do you do it with the 3 pt in float mod?
I am a novice! Do they make a land plane for the front end? 😎 love you video

I hope you’uns are having a great day, too. Loved the wabbit.🤣
Grading Scrapers, Do you prefer a 6-foot over and 7 ft?
Mike, have you ever rented a roller and compacting the road when added the stone?
can you put 2 logs on saw and cut both at same time if small enough?
Mike you do need for the long run some cutting edges on the backside of the land plane. Your words ( I like to push backwards )
Good stuff mike!

Hi Mike. Is there still one red pine log where you fell the tree?
The stone yard must send you a Christmas card! Looking good
That’s what I’m talking about. He must have bought over 250 yards of stone in the last 3 years!!
How is going backwards any different than planning forward ? Same bumps right?
Nope, i explained why towards the end of video
