Homestead Gravel Driveway Maintenance

Doing some much needed driveway maintenance with my ‪@KIOTITRACTOR‬ DK5310 and my box blade. Been putting this chore off for a while and I'm glad I finally got it done. It turned out really nice. Thanks for watching, and be sure to subscribe!

Thanks for watching!

That’s a purdy driveway! Love gravel driveways.

[@LandFather]

Thanks man. I know you like a slicked up driveway

[@99Projects]

the closer to 90 degrees your cutting edge is the more it will cut...the less aggressive angle will make it nicer to smooth and spread. Super satisfying video. I have 300 years experience in every trade imaginable and more importantly I stayed in a holiday inn last night and you did everything correctly

[@LandFather]

I believe the only thing I should have done differently was use vice grips to attach the box blade to the tractor

[@99Projects]

@@LandFather my mistake, you are correct. I expect that will be fixed next time lol

[@duck-n-cover477]

Like you, "first time every time" is my experience with my Kioti CX, in over 200 hours.

[@LandFather]

I’ve really really enjoyed my Kioti. It’s been the perfect machine for me. Super impressed with it

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Driveway looks great! Nice work!

[@LandFather]

Thank you sir. Hope you’ve been good. How’s the new side by side?

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Oh man, we are loving it!!!@@LandFather

[@LandFather]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead that’s good. I gotta get me one soon

High neighbor!

[@SeriouslyStumpd]

If your driveway "Cant" you CAN fix it. 😅

[@LandFather]

Can he box blade it?! Yes he can!

[@projectswithjw]

I like lightly wet gravel work. Keeps the dust down. I run a 6' box blade too! 😬

[@LandFather]

This was a bit beyond slightly wet but it seemed to work just fine. How’s the 1025R pull the 6 footer?

[@projectswithjw]

I can pull it up a mountain with no rippers in it. I try to only use 3 of the 6 when i use them. It was given to me or else I would've probably picked a 5' That seems more reasonable. Do you still like the hollyland mic? I need a wireless setup. Rode and DJI seems to have a lot of bad reviews even though they seem the most common in videos I watch. @@LandFather

[@LandFather]

@@projectswithjw yeah I thought it would struggle with the all the rippers down. I really really like that mic and I’ve recommend it to several people. It’s worked really well for me, and I feel like the audio quality is super good

Congrats on the new family member! Good to see you back hard at it.

[@LandFather]

Thanks buddy. Good to be back at it too
