Great video Tim. I like the tire wash to keep things clean. The land plane did a great job maybe the scarifiers would have been a bonus if it had them.
The material is asphalt millings. A great material for high traffic area's and hilly driveways. I always recommend rolling them on a warm sunny day. The A/C reactivates in the heat and compacts and Bond's back together. Love the video and keep them coming
Hey Tim, I have a JD 4066R and to me the land plane is the best tool for leveling, as well as crowning driveways. As someone note below a hydraulic top link is indispensable. To put the crown on a driveway I have a hydraulic cylinder on my right (looking at it from the rear) draft link which will automatically re-level. Both can be controlled from the cab. I put a magnetic angle gauge on the land plane that can be seen from inside the cab. I then don’t have to get off the tractor to check the angle. Also as someone noted below I have rippers on the land plane. The rippers are hydraulically controlled also, it’s all about low production times, and it’s a fun toy lol. I run my land plane level. When level you have both bars on the gravel and they do a great job of loosening the top level. I like crushed asphalt on drives and parking lots. I’ll normally run across it first with just rippers. To me it seems to make the project go faster. I enjoy watching your video’s. As a side note with a hydraulic top link you may be able to use it for more downforce? It would save you from have to fabricate block/tractor weight holders if your land plane doesn’t already have them.
We call it slag up here in Canada. Works great for driveways! Thanks for all your videos, we bought an acreage last year and I'm almost ready to pull the pin on a new 1025R thanks to your videos and information! I wasn't sure a 1025R would be big enough but you've shown that they are a very versatile machine.
This looks to have been the PERFECT job for a grader scraper box. The scarifiers dig in great, and the box moves a lot of material fast. I think it would have cut the work time in half or maybe even better. Looks great in the end though. Like you said, the plane is the right tool for finishing.
Awesome job and should get weight for that land plan helps out a lot and less back and forth. I did for mine for really compacted dirt and rock works amazing
Great video, just throwing this out there, Landpride has adjustable scarifiers on their landplanes. A real nice accessory. Probably the easiest rear implement to use.
Where I live has 4.5 miles of gravel roads. After 30 years of grading blade we bought a LandPride Landplane with scarfires. Oh my God. We turned a roadway that was bombed into a completely smooth and gravel roadway in a few days. Without buying more gravel too. Awesome tool that LandPlane is.
Hi Tim, That cab you can work the backhoe with it on I forgot to tell you that. I like it give you shad when using the backhoe. Drive way looking good you will get it fixed. nice job
Tim the one my neighbor has it has rippers on it if you need them.PS level it up and the back half will take the over flow and help with the leveling. I've used it many times and it works!
You just reminded me that I owe you a big thanks you. I got the edge tamers and they are great for my use cleaning snow around the yard for the dog this winter in Maine. So when you see the guys from R2 thank them as well. Thank you again....
Wow, this video hit home in so many ways for me. Being an Indianapolis resident and a prior CAPTAIN D'S manager, I am just gonna have to go there and check out your handiwork personally. :) PS - for anyone wondering, the Captain D's is located in Greenwood, IN just south and across the street from the Greenwood mall.
Well, I made it down there. It was just getting dark when I arrived so I couldnt see perfectly, but what I could see looked pretty good. Didnt feel any bumps driving over it at least. :)
I love TTWT, just a word of advice when your in Louisville. Keep your head on a swivel. It’s like the “Chicago” of KY. I’d love to meet you guys one day but I’m not going to the Louisville area. South central KY is more of the quiet country & tractor kind of life.
Tractor Time with Tim the convention center will be fine, it’s the area around it that you will be passing through that is not safe. Prayers for safe travels for you guys. 👍🏼
We were in Louisville for a work conference at the convention center back in August. There were lots of tourist types in that area of town and we never felt unsafe. Even did a Segway tour and went over the river to the Indiana side. Had a great time.
Jeremy TV my uncle does railroad work up there. He has a new awful story every other week. You couldn’t pay me to step foot in Louisville anymore. He’s had a group of thugs try to jump on his backhoe and pull him out of it. He’s went to a gas station to get gas and minutes after leaving the gas attendant got Murdered. He said it is really bad there now.
Kentucky Cornbread man, hate to hear that. Seemed like a nice place when we were there. I was thinking it was last year but it was actually August of 2018.
Bought a Land Pride Plane. I must say I think after seeing your video the sacrifices, are a necessity and something you would really enjoy although it might set that 1025r on fire.
Tooth bar for the win! After seeing Tim using one and what it can do, I purchased one. What a difference it makes moving stubborn material. I had a junk pile behind my shed that the bucket on my 1025 could only scratch. I installed the tooth bar and that pile just fell apart and was able to get it all cleaned up in a few hours. Thanks for the great content, keep up the good work.
Tim, just watched this back to back with some other land plane videos, I just love your narration while you work. Watching a tractor work to music for 15 minutes doesn't do it for me. Next time compare a box blade to the land plane for a newb like me.
If you have pot holes you do not have sufficient drainage if you can visualize where water needs to go always use your laser level or I’d recommend getting a grown gauge to show percent of slope
The land plane I have has scarifiers which makes all the difference in being able to break up the surface. I use it in conjunction with a hydraulic top/tilt kit. This allows me to tune how much the scarifiers dig in by tilting the front of the land plane down through shortening the top link and then smoothing out the surface by leveling the land plane by lengthening the top link. You really need to get a hydraulic top link and side link on one of your tractors.
Wanted to point out that Land Planes (Grader Scrapers) are available with scarifiers in sizes appropriate for SCUT, CUT, and smaller Ag utility tractors. They, of course, will be more expensive. That said, those bolt on teeth on your bucket certainly got the job done.
Land plane not meant to dig in...really need one with rippers on it and won’t need tooth bar assistance 👍🏼 - plus we find the rippers are needed to bust up the edges of the pot hole or it comes right back. Thanks for the videos 👍🏼👍🏼
This video is great. I have a large gravel driveway to maintain and for some reason I always think the 1025R wouldn't be big enough to pull a land plane. I'm always pleasantly surprised at how much work can be done with such a compact tractor. Nice to hear you'll be at the JD booth. I'm guessing you've sold quite a few of their tractors via your videos.
Box blade with the teeth lowered, and then raise the teeth when it’s all loose and roughly in place. Then I put trailer jacks with air wheels on the back of my box blade, and use them to level everything out. A bit of modification involved, but the wheels following the box blade give it awesome leveling capabilities.
I think you might have saved time if you would have used the box blade with the scarifiers to do the rough work and then used the land plane to finish things off.
I was impressed by the plane.... looks like it did a pretty good job. I may have brought Vinnie with his power rake too.... even if the masses would rather see Johnny!
I always wondered how those land planes worked, without having scarifires built in like a box blade.. I bet it would work good if you used it on a regular basis. Once it gets bad you definitely need scarifiers tho. Came out nice. 👍
Tim, to me it does look like crushed Milling. Millings are one of the best things for driveways, most crushed Concrete is dusty, it all depends on how much asphalt is mixed in. The crushed gravel we have at my work has many loads of extra Asphalt in it, many people are starting to see the add value in getting gravel that is from Asphalt Millings or Gravel that has them in it. Not only less dust but they pack harder then regular Gravel does.
tractor tim , u need to raise land plane front up few inch / while u have loader bucket full of stone back drag with the loader back of your loader bucket
I think the land plane was the right tool for that job. My only critique would be that it didn’t have scarifies on the implement (mine does) which is what you really want to do the first few passes; break up the packed rock/material; You eventually saw how much more effective the implement was once you broke it up with your tooth bar. Once its broken up move most of the material beyond the trouble spot, in this case, onto the paved driveway. Then you can go back and forth spreading the material, getting most of it where you needed it, in the low spot. After you’re satisfied with the general grading, tilt your top link back so that only the rear blade is touching, the front blade lightly touching/up. I find that when the front blade is tilted down to much, the material just piles up and if the back blade is ever so high, will compound this. By tilting the front blade up it allows the material to flow out the back of the plane more easily and gets you a nice final grade. It’s amazing how much rock you “make” once you’ve dug down a bit, so I agree, no more was needed. Hopefully these tips will help you out and as you continue! Good luck and nice job. Thanks for sharing!
Good video but was wondering if you can adjust this so as not to cut but just pull sand or top soil to level a yard without tearing the grass up. Like a hand leveling rake. Any idea? I have a lot of small holes & dips I'd like to fill in. I saw a video of a guy that used a 6x6 & drug it behind his lawnmower but was hoping to find something that might work a little better.
I've not used a plane yet, but from the research I've done they are more geared to grooming rather than fixing big ruts. A box blade works better as it has the scarifiers, but you tooth bar does the trick too, great job - John in TN
That "stone" is called Road Millings you can get it screened or unscreened. Most people get the screened due to being so easy to work with when potholes occur (as you can tell). The unscreened millings have big asphalt rock in it. Millings are a big thing here in Western New York. Perfect for country driveways (like yours) lol When installed they usually lay a 4-6" base. So be careful not to dig down to deep , don't want dirt mixed in with the Millings. By the way..... Love the Land Plane
they do in Pine River Minnesota ... a lot more often than one day too I think it's an excellent use of training time behind the wheel ... the farm kids around here seem to be respectful of the tractors and they try to be very good drivers
I watch all your videos like you love working with my JD. What are the tires you went to and why compared to the over rated R4's Where can I order one of those Land Planes I know Dr has a nice one. About your cab I have one on my 2032R and have hauled it from Pittsburgh to Nashville, Tn where I am building another retirement home and I never took it apart and it was fine at 70 mph . Only thing I did was wrap a tie down strap around the entire cab to secure doors from opening and worked great.
Tim I rented a land plan from my local rental shop and it had scarifiers on it like box blade. It worked great on my drive. Im not sure who makes it but was the same color as yours. I rented one before I buy. Looks good.
You made that look so easy. I have a LandPride brand landplane that I use with my Mahindra 2816. It has scarifiers built in. While it works good, I think your technique with the toothbar works better and more efficient. I wonder if they make toothbars to fit Mahindra? I wouldn’t even mind if they are green since my red tractor is using an orange implement already. The Other Tim with Tractors
Yes, the heavy hitch toothbar should fit the Mahindra bucket. They make them in several colors. Black would look fine, right? Measure the inside bucket width, and call the folks at HeavyHitch.com to get the right one. ....and don't forget to mention TTWT for your 5% discount!
Great video!!!! I have been thinking about a land plane for a very long time. I think it’s time to get one! Can you show application on a residential gravel driveway? The teeth on the bucket worked amazing!
You NEED a heavy hitch toothbar!!! Yea, we will show it on our driveway. I tried to do so for the 'prep' episode before this one, but the camera messed up. Anyway, the landplane is trivial to operate. Just drop it and drive! It doesn't require the finesse which a box blade requires.
Tractor Time with Tim, Mike has done a great job. But it never hurts to see a different spin on the same product. Just thought Id ask...Thank you either way thoroughly enjoy your channel.
Yes good job with the land plane for sure and I watched the prep video as will and you kept mentioning that time in their cost or I heard wrong. If so I want to know how to include fiddling around in my shop in customers prices. Drive time at most. 2 hrs and 2 hrs job not 7 right?
Tim, I have a box blade and was thinking it can do this kind of work and more with the ripping ability of the tines. What does the landscaper do better?
Although I didn’t buy Tufline Monroe, I’m happy to this Aussie bought all his tractor attachments from the USA. Awesome stuff. So does Tufline Monre make a wood chipper? If so, I’d consider one. Googling now...
Mr. Tim, do you think that using a 2032 or a 2038 would’ve been easier? Love your videos! Very helpful to a young beginner like myself. God bless brother.
Tractor Time with Tim lil Johnny seemed to do great work with it, I’m sure that’s a lot in part to operator experience! I am currently torn between the 1025 and the 2032r as I’m just getting started with 8 acres and a few jobs with a x700 which isn’t nearly enough over the last to years but learning. Love the videos keep up the great work brother!
Keenan Gibby in your case, I would highly recommend the 2032r. There are only two reasons to choose a 1025r over a 2032r: 1) can’t afford, and 2) need to work in very tight spaces.
Hi Tim and Christy very nice job nice video
Love the comentary...commentary.... looking good! Great video
Good job, guys. You can't do much better working in winter with wet material. God bless! Your not getting rich, but it's the fellowship.
Liked and Subscribed. Love rhe commentary and rhe smooth way you communicate the strategy!
Great video Tim. I like the tire wash to keep things clean. The land plane did a great job maybe the scarifiers would have been a bonus if it had them.

Love your videos. I now own a 1025r got a lot to do to it like yours but one thing at a tim.
Interesting video to watch. I use a spring fork to fill holes in my slag drive after winter, but I think the Land Plane would work better, thanks Tim.
you guys are getting close to 100K
Good video Tim

Easy too. No skill required.
@@TractorTimewithTimLOL. I wouldn't go that far with the experience you have.
That’s right down the road from my house! I’m gonna have to drive back there one day to see how it looks now
Hi Tim, That cab you can work the backhoe with it on I forgot to tell you that. I like it give you shad when using the backhoe. Drive way looking good you will get it fixed. nice job
Video released this week showing backhoe in use with cab. You must remove the rear vinyl section.
Tim the one my neighbor has it has rippers on it if you need them.PS level it up and the back half will take the over flow and help with the leveling. I've used it many times and it works!
Tim for a first time your end result with the box blade is nice. Great use of bolt on bucket rippers.
Nice work!
Thanks for taking it slow and explaining what you were doing and why.
Just simple seat time with a particular piece of equipment or implement cuts plenty of time off over length of time. Great video and honesty.

Tim,
You should consider a Rollover box blade, and possibly a top & tilt kit for the 3 point.
I have one and use it a lot..works best when things are dry..but i did go for one with rippers
Good job.
Bought a Land Pride Plane. I must say I think after seeing your video the sacrifices, are a necessity and something you would really enjoy although it might set that 1025r on fire.

Thanks for the kind words. That is why we don’t use music!
We used a box blade on a drive somewhat recently.
If you have pot holes you do not have sufficient drainage if you can visualize where water needs to go always use your laser level or I’d recommend getting a grown gauge to show percent of slope
I love my Woods box grader, it is built heavier and comes with scarifiers however.
Tufline, built in Columbus MS. Have been to their plant several times. About an hour south east of TUPELO MS.

I dont have a land plane but I do have a box blade. From what I see you doing I think that the box blade would have been a better choice.
FIRST
have a great weekend Tim & Fam, enjoy the plane
very good
Tim I have a Lowery brand land plane with two rows of scarifier teeth and it gets good
11 scarifiers total
Wow it does a great job
Yes I said 11 teeth
wouldn't be able to pull that would little Johnny, right?
It's a 6'
They make 4' and 5' ones
That thing gets the job done
I have a tooth bar that I bought from the heavy hitch, did not use it yet but I plan to in the spring for cleanup of ruts and brush in the field.
Land plane not meant to dig in...really need one with rippers on it and won’t need tooth bar assistance 👍🏼 - plus we find the rippers are needed to bust up the edges of the pot hole or it comes right back. Thanks for the videos 👍🏼👍🏼

BigGary- a word of advice..buy the biggest tractor you can afford. Nobody ever said I wish I bought a smaller tractor.
A motor grader would repair this in two passes. Time saved .quality work.long stretch can be done and drainage channels worked
Uh, ok. We’ll look around in the shed to see if we can find the motor grader. Good grief!!
Box blade with the teeth lowered, and then raise the teeth when it’s all loose and roughly in place. Then I put trailer jacks with air wheels on the back of my box blade, and use them to level everything out.

Makes for a really nice flat finish
I think you might have saved time if you would have used the box blade with the scarifiers to do the rough work and then used the land plane to finish things off.
My thoughts exactly.
Recycle asphalt in the cold works alot harder. Go back in the summer and spread it around again. The summer heat will make it hard again.
I was impressed by the plane.... looks like it did a pretty good job. I may have brought Vinnie with his power rake too.... even if the masses would rather see Johnny!

I wanted a land plane. I added hydraulic top and tilt and use my box scrapper instead- have been very happy with it. Deere 2032R.
I think the land plane was the right tool for that job. My only critique would be that it didn’t have scarifies on the implement (mine does) which is what you really want to do the first few passes; break up the packed rock/material; You eventually saw how much more effective the implement was once you broke it up with your tooth bar.

My Woods ground plane has scarifiers and the side skids are adjustable to change depth of cut.
That "stone" is called Road Millings you can get it screened or unscreened. Most people get the screened due to being so easy to work with when potholes occur (as you can tell). The unscreened millings have big asphalt rock in it.

Tim do any of your local schools do a drive your tractor to school day. I’m trying to get the high school that I go to, to do that.
In Indiana specifically central and north central, YES. Rural schools mostly. Ours does a senior parade
they do in Pine River Minnesota ... a lot more often than one day too
I think it's an excellent use of training time behind the wheel ... the farm kids around here seem to be respectful of the tractors and they try to be very good drivers
Nice job!
Hopefully you have a project to use the box blade with in the near future.
I am curious how the new tires are in snow for snow removal?
I watch all your videos like you love working with my JD. What are the tires you went to and why compared to the over rated R4's Where can I order one of those Land Planes I know Dr has a nice one. About your cab I have one on my 2032R and have hauled it from Pittsburgh to Nashville, Tn where I am building another retirement home and I never took it apart and it was fine at 70 mph .

I rented a land plan from my local rental shop and it had scarifiers on it like box blade. It worked great on my drive. Im not sure who makes it but was the same color as yours. I rented one before I buy. Looks good.
Tim lands a plane?! Cool!
It’s not rock. It old recycle asphalt millings. If you heat if up with a huge torch it will get sticky again and you can pack it with a roller.
The land plane looks like a tool you could make a lot of use of Tim.
I like the land plane!
Tim using the tooth bar definitely helps break up the surface to use the land plane to level it out
You made that look so easy. I have a LandPride brand landplane that I use with my Mahindra 2816. It has scarifiers built in. While it works good, I think your technique with the toothbar works better and more efficient. I wonder if they make toothbars to fit Mahindra?

Yes, the heavy hitch toothbar should fit the Mahindra bucket. They make them in several colors. Black would look fine, right? Measure the inside bucket width, and call the folks at HeavyHitch.com to get the right one. ....and don't forget to mention TTWT for your 5% discount!
Great video!!!! I have been thinking about a land plane for a very long time. I think it’s time to get one! Can you show application on a residential gravel driveway? The teeth on the bucket worked amazing!
You NEED a heavy hitch toothbar!!! Yea, we will show it on our driveway. I tried to do so for the 'prep' episode before this one, but the camera messed up.
Anyway, the landplane is trivial to operate. Just drop it and drive! It doesn't require the finesse which a box blade requires.
Never seen a land plane before very interesting
Great vid I really enjoy them. Can you consider reviewing the Rual King tractors. Thank you
We don’t have access...and Mike Morgan has done a great job.
Tractor Time with Tim, Mike has done a great job. But it never hurts to see a different spin on the same product. Just thought Id ask...Thank you either way thoroughly enjoy your channel.
Yes good job with the land plane for sure and I watched the prep video as will and you kept mentioning that time in their cost or I heard wrong. If so I want to know how to include fiddling around in my shop in customers prices. Drive time at most. 2 hrs and 2 hrs job not 7 right?
No, we do not charge any prep fees. Thought I was clear on that. My point is, we spent 7.5 hours for a 2 hour job.
cool
Do you have a video on land planing pot holes and uneven ground on a slope ? Thanks
Not really.
Love those tires.
Tim, I have a box blade and was thinking it can do this kind of work and more with the ripping ability of the tines. What does the landscaper do better?
I thought it was very easy to ‘level’ the surface with the land plane.
Would the ventrac with the power rack work better for something like this?
Would have worked. Not sure about better.
We just wanted to use Johnny.
Tractor Time with Tim I appreciate the quick response. Always love watching your videos. You are very informative on everything you do and use.
How small do they make those? I got a cat 0 3point on my sears tractor and what it ruffly weight?
I would have filled the hole with a couple yards of #2 stone for a firmer base and then pulled some of the millings over the top.
Although I didn’t buy Tufline Monroe, I’m happy to this Aussie bought all his tractor attachments from the USA. Awesome stuff. So does Tufline Monre make a wood chipper? If so, I’d consider one. Googling now...
Mr. Tim, do you think that using a 2032 or a 2038 would’ve been easier? Love your videos! Very helpful to a young beginner like myself. God bless brother.
For this particular project, no, I don’t think any better.
Tractor Time with Tim lil Johnny seemed to do great work with it, I’m sure that’s a lot in part to operator experience!
I am currently torn between the 1025 and the 2032r as I’m just getting started with 8 acres and a few jobs with a x700 which isn’t nearly enough over the last to years but learning. Love the videos keep up the great work brother!
Keenan Gibby in your case, I would highly recommend the 2032r. There are only two reasons to choose a 1025r over a 2032r: 1) can’t afford, and 2) need to work in very tight spaces.
