The video walks through ripping up compacted bank gravel to resurface it, adjusting the box blade crown with a practical turnbuckle tip, and calculating material needs (68 tons of 2B limestone) using two free tools. Part one of two; the limestone delivery and final grading are in a follow-up. Most useful for rural owners tackling similar gravel driveway work.
An owner-operator documenting hands-on projects at their own rural property, so expect candid real-world problem-solving rather than a polished or sales-oriented presentation.
Put a cinder block under one side of the box blade to relieve the 600 pounds of weight pressure on the turnbuckle, then it turns easily.
Use the Find Lot Size app to measure driveway length by satellite image, then enter width, length, and desired depth into the InchCalculator.com gravel driveway calculator.
