I have a wooded property in very sandy central Florida. I'd like to partially clear it, compact it and drop in a bunch of #57 in the form of a driveway to a clearing patch in the middle. But not just compact enough to drive over, but also a base for an eventual foundation for small/lightweight metal frame single story offgrid house. Is this possible and are their specific requirements I need to meet in Florida?
I would check local guide lines but it’s really up to you, I really believe it’s up to you because it’s not a public drive way, but if you want to be safe check with you’re city or local authorities
Base layer is at least 3 inch we used 3 inch stone and top its like 3 to 5inch... we used ca6 which is called road mix powder and 1/4 quarter inch rock 🪨 compounds nicely by itself
You must like using that Skid Loader. Having a Tri-Axle driver spread most of your driveway would've saved you alot of work.
I do like my toys ;) definitely the 3axle would be the ultimate finish ! Thanks
Nice
Thanks 😊
I wish these where still the prices, i got 400 ft driveway to make 😔
Yes me too... I have also like 250ft at least to make and prices are ridiculous
looks great!
Thank you ;)

This is a nice video. thank you. What was at the end that you put on your driveway? Sand?
No the road mix it’ a mixed of crushed stone and 3 quarter inch rock and when compacts it looks like that ;) thanks for watching
Take care
What is the benefits for CA6 or roadmix? was planning to build a gravel driveway here in the Philippines
Ca6 is road mix, it compacts itself
How big is the base and top layer? Is it 1.5 inch base layer?

Just found your channel. I have equipment videos as well if you’re interested. I subbed
Sure ... :)
If I may ask....how much did all that gravel cost?
Hey John the price brake down is at the end of the video I believe it was around 2000$ ;)
Not bad at all

Should have been woven fabric

No i didnt
How many feet was the drive way
