I have been doing driveways for a long time with just a box blade. It's all in the angle with the top link to set the distribution depth. Drainage is important for the edges of the driveway and to finish the driveway with a bit of crown to it. If you do the water will run off and avoid the formation of puddles. Standing water being driven over creates puddles. My driveway challenges are all related to being to cheap for the necessary gravel. That stuff is expensive.

@@p8ntbal4me I'd never hire you. Other professionals here have also collaborated the proper way to do a driveway. I prefer to crown the driveway because you get the longest puddle free life from it that way. Happy customers for sure. Your customers have to call you over and over each year when it rains to have you redo their driveways. I cut the angle for each side and the back grade the loose stuff in the middle. Sometimes I just cut the angle on each side and then have new gravel put over it. Leaves a nice crown that will last for years if treated properly. It's common sense and works great. If you had to go to school for common sense. Well you may need to get at least a partial refund. Lol

@consaka13 жыл бұрын
My advice is a front end loader on a tractor and a box blade with times. The times help break up any really hard stuff. I seldom use them except for major repairs. Do a rough leveling and crowning then dump new gravel by the bucket load every so often. The bucket will pick up the piles and spread it evenly. There ain't no glass and honestly I don't really want it. Just drive on it and a good rain settles it all in.

You know, if you want to get into doing driveways as an added line, you might want to look into buying a Gravel Doctor machine. It has 15 scarifying teeth that you can raise and lower hydraulically, you can scarify forwards and backwards, it has a two sided cutting blade on it so you can do that forwards and backwards too. You can also raise it and lower it on the 3-point, tilt it forward and back, and roll it clockwise and counter-clockwise; all hydraulically and controlled from the seat of your tractor. You can actually use the factory designed hydraulic valve box, or you can use the tractor's rear-remotes. I know a guy in Indiana who does that. I also used mine to excavate a few inches of dirt to make a stone shed pad or light duty parking pad. (Geogrid underneath the stone). Very efficient at that. BTW, I always suggest an inch to an inch-and-1/2 of well compacted 57's on top of a gravel driveway. It keeps the rain from washing away the fines. Just my 2 cents. Love your channel.

I haven't used one before. But they look real snazzy.i am surprised how you can spread the material right from the pile like that. I always thought they were used after a rough grading with a bucket or something but this eliminates that whole step. Pretty cool
