I was thinking of doing the same thing but instead of the entire surface, do two paths about 18” wide x 4 inch thick, and place rebar or a 4x4 wire mesh to reinforce it…. Also use straight Portland cement if the local gravel is clean enough. Might be better if I dig the 18” path in a bit so it’s not sitting on top of the existing lane…your in a tight turn so a 18” path might be too narrow. Well I’m interested to see how it holds up. A lot will depend on how stable the ground is under that new concrete…it doesn’t like to flex.
Purchase straight Portland cement, anything else is full of filler rocks, you already have the rocks. In Australia they use latex polymers for road stabilization, probably just floor wax tilled and packed down.
Had a hole in a dirt and gravel drive way where a small tree was pushed out ( young pine about 15 to 20 ft tall). Couldn't keep it filled. Filled it in for 2 yrs and would still come back. So, got the idea to fill it with some dirt and poured about half bag of of quickcrete over then watered it down real good. Problem sovled. Reappearing hole ceased to reappear! Lived there for 8 more yrs before moving and hole never did come back over the time i lived there.
hey man can you do more of there amazing vids please there so entertaining pleas make more please💯💯💯💯💯💯💌💌💌😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘 i want to meet you so bad in real lie
NO! DON'T DO IT. This is horrible when it comes time for maintenance. And yes that time will come no matter how much concrete you put on it. You are just making it much worse to maintain with chunks of concrete everywhere. Cut and grade your driveway once a year or fund someone that does gravel driveway maintenance and that can renovate your driveway with your existing gravel.
Cuz it’s quik set concrete. You don’t pre mix. Just water. But what he is doing will clump up and not be solid . Depends on amount used. I’m curious to see it now
@@bleumeanyontherampage2136 Because he has created like a half inch thick concrete slab over loose gravel that he is going to drive heavy trucks on. It will crack almost immediately and will then be loose large sheets of concrete.
@@Defender_Tom Yep. I'd get a solid surface. But given my 1/4 km long and steep driveway, and that we get snow, I'm ok with gravel. Solid surface would be a schit show when icy.
I hope you do a follow up in a few months, I'd be interested in it. Good video!
Don’t hold your breath.
Thanks for the video, I’d love to see how it’s holding up!
You don’t need 8 bags. You need 800 bags. Or a concrete truck

I was just thinking about if this would work. And yup. Someone has tried it. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!

Can it handle to be plowed with a foot of snow and not move all the rock?
Any updates to the rest of the driveway?
That monster energy bottle cracked me up! Gotta get highdrated before the task, right on!
How's the drive way holding up?
hey man can you do more of there amazing vids please there so entertaining pleas make more please💯💯💯💯💯💯💌💌💌😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘 i want to meet you so bad in real lie

I’d be concerned about your lungs inhaling all this powder.

Any update Josh?
The water will come down faster now. How much are you dealing with?

Bro you’re telling him not to do something he already documented himself doing 💀
Everyone's a Genius in their own minds 😂
Please do an update video
How does it look after driving on it for a week or two?😊
I hope you were not holding your breath
@@georgea6403I bet he needed about another 100 bags before noticing any difference.
I wash my brooms every time we pour concrete
Right idea unsure why you didnt wet it and mix together????

For some reason, I did not realize he wet it.
Should have used Portland, not quick Crete.
Looking forward to the update video on the dangers of silicosis
Definitely need a mask
No no no bad idea
Yay
When you don't have the money to do it right but you still want to do something... even when it's worthless.
why is it worthless?
if you have to ask
@@georgea6403 If I have to ask ,and you don't have an answer, guess it might just work.
I mean, it does work, it's just a gravel supplement

What a joke
I would have got a mixer and mixed it first lol.
Hire a reliable asphalt firm and have a proper 🖐drive chap
Maybe he can’t afford professional job.
@@lorihamlin3604 Or, like around here, "reliable asphalt firm" is a myth, like an honest roofing business......
Not everyone wants an asphalt driveway. Some people want gravel, even if they can afford asphalt, concrete, or pavers.

Nice👍👍
