Today I use the tractor (Kioti ck3510se) and 6 foot box blade (Titan 3106) to grade a trail and smooth out some pot holes. Music written and performed by Josh Hovis

Love the process of removing puddles with the grading process

I would be interested to see another video of this repair in a year or so. I was taught that you had to use the scarifiers to first turn up the ground to make a permanent fix for a pot hole. Otherwise the fill material just move out with traffic and expansions/contractions of the weather.

Thanks for the tip. I used tailings I had from my homemade screener, which consisted of larger rock and gravel as a base and the used a 1/4 to dust for a top coat as shown in the video. I turned my scarifiers upside down because I didn't want to pull those larger rocks from the base. It has actually held up really well so far. On the other hand, with the tractor and box blade its really no big deal for me to go over it again if a pot hole does develop because I enjoy the seat time anyway. But so far so good. Anyway thanks for the advice and thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching! I've been very happy with my Titan box blade. It's a great attachment to have.

Every single part of the road has to be higher than the surrounding area especially that low swamp area… and has to drain away from that road.. but you already know that..

I think it turned out well with that box blade. For future perfection I'd (an amateur) would recommend a rear blade & to use a State Education video on how the professional road-graders perform their perfection. Gravel/dirt roads require a 4% slope to maintain proper drainage where asphalt only requires a 2% slope.

@@JoshHovis I guess I didn't realize it was so long ago but yes whenever I'm dealing with any type of wet dirt I mixed sand and small gravel. It's just something that has worked for me.
