Read articles →A casual vlog-style episode where owner Ed uses his Kubota B2601 and Land Pride BB1260 box blade to clear debris and rough-grade a 12x24-foot area in preparation for a concrete pad. Coverage is light, he narrates his grading logic and eyeballs the grade without instruments, and he admits key work happened off-camera. Best for fans already following this project series.
An owner-operator sharing informal, real-world DIY projects on his 33-acre New Jersey farm, no dealership affiliation evident.
Ed clears debris first, then uses the Land Pride BB1260 box blade to grade the dirt, comparing it to the driveway height and digging in or dragging dirt back as needed.
Ed uses the block wall and driveway surface as visual references, estimating the area is about six inches lower than the driveway to judge how much concrete or fill is needed.
He plans to either raise the pad to driveway level or make it level with the shed and grade down the driveway, possibly tapering the last four feet for a ramp.
