You can crown or cut a V by adjust the tilt of the land plane using the lift arm leveling assembly on the 3pt hitch.
The land plane sure does a nice job. I've seen you work on your driveway numerous times now and it seems like its just not routed well for the water. I think you either need to build up the stone several inches higher so you can effectively divert water to the sides, or you need to reroute the driveway so it doesn't follow the fall line
Good job. My opinion is we can never win the battle with mother nature. The best we can ever do is work with her and adjust accordingly.
Couldn't agree more about spreading stone by pushing backwards with the land plane. I have to do it all the time maintaining our steep road that gets the "rumble strips" in it. That said, I'm custom making a 6' land plane that is attached to a quick attach plate and mounts to the loader so I can do the same thing while driving forward. I almost have it finished, except for finding a used land plane, a quick attach plate, and the time to modify all of it and weld it up....lol.
This might be an idea for an episode. Folks can send in to Mike the various improvised solutions to the jobs they have.
Hey Mike, You do realize when you use the land plane backwards you are using it rock against normal probably A36 steal, not the Abrasion resistant steal it has on the cutting blades forward? It works yes, but the steal won't last over the years that way, blades are made to bolt on replace, that support steal will probably have to be cut out and new welded in.
My LP Grading Scraper has replaceable cutting edges on both sides so going backwards is no issue. I ended up bending the metal on my cutting edge on my previous one, however it didn’t have a replaceable edge so it got mangled when I hit a rock.
Steel angle is cheap, I don’t have cutters on mine. Got a plasma cutter & a mig that I love using.
Can't believe you scared that rabbit, you big meany. : )
- Going to have some pretty “fancy schmancy” company for 4th celebration.😂 Nothing like a new load of gravel for the driveway. - Your taken super care of the power equipment. Washing, maintaining and covered storage.
And just think if you had A POOL you could have a party
Good morning from St John Parish, Louisiana.
Looks good, now pave it. Such grand entrance dont mix with gravel.
MELISSA!!!! There's Hope! Mike said you'll have a pool before he paves the lot! And he said " Im not saying I'd ever pave this either" (7:15 mark) .I couldn't believe what I heard, had to replay that clip 4 times!
very well done as usual . we use electric deer whistle on our trucks so far so good . bodbless
NEVER pave your driveway! Let the water go through it. Smart Mike.
A Subaru is a million times better than a JEEP
40 years in the business wrenching on cars of all flavors.
Jeep is now a mass produced piece of garbage made by FIAT.
This is not a case of "you get what you pay for"
Jeeps are way over priced.
Broncos are dropping valves and destroying engines as well.
Oops.
Anyway, got that off my chest.
Great channel
Mike Morgan.....aka. "The Driveway Doctor"!!💪💪💪
Liked your Yinz statement. I was born in Martins Ferry, Ohio and raised in the Ohio valley area. Not far from youins. lol I have often been asked "What does youins mean" and my favorite reply is the Youins means 'You All, plus one. Have a day!
Do the right thing Mike and get your family a pool! Have a day!
A pool is a hard thing to justify. Expensive to install , purchase , keep it maintained , etc. We have thought about it around here for over a decade and to be honest it wouldnt get used more than a dozen times a year. The same reason I dont have a pontoon boat.
Pool requires a lot of maintenance time, it will take away from everything else.
Naw, a pool is a money pit. Fix the pond and put up a rope awing.
I meant a rope swing.
man, my parents driveway is a nightmare. flat to a 15% grade on a curve on the side of a hill. It's shale. would a box blade work? I'd like to grade it towards the hill side as the other side is about a 50ft drop off. I have a l4600 hst. need to a get a tooth bar for the front. The shale just laughs at the reg bucket!
I would suggest asphalt millings, but, that would take away a lot of the maintenance with the tractor and land plane! Then we the viewers would suffer without videos. So forget I ever mentioned anything about millings!
Wondering how the pond is making out with the rain? Mike I seen a video were Hunter even made motions for a pool, seems like your getting out numbered ! Remember Happy Wife Happy Life👍
Good evening Morgan's!! Hope all is well. Looking forward to the 🎆 fireworks. Have a great rest of your week. Mums place is looking good. Thanks for the video. Have a day.
I own 2 Subaru Foresters. By far superior in snow than Jeeps or Trucks. I pass them in ditches all the time in the mountains.
Your main drive have you considered you’re pitching it incorrectly?
We grew up with a similar driveway on a small family farm with a drive with a fairly steep driveway sloping up to lake ur house on a hill.
Logic says pitch it left and right, crown in center. Then one day my dad said I’m tired of dealing with constantly driving in and out with ruts on the left and right where my tires are suppose to be getting traction instead it’s pot holes.
So he called in a paving company and they said unless you have a specific ditch on both and
Lleft and right side of drive. Then you need to pitch everything to the center and let the center of the driveway be come the ditch. If it washes your tires straddle the wash out.
Eventually we had it paved and they purposely kept everything pitched to the center until the water leveled off at the bottom of the hill.z. The reason being if the water pitched left and right if would have undermined the freshly laid asphalt causing side erosion and breaking off the sides of the asphalt.
Just wanted to share.
why not use the frontend loader to level rock--level bucket forward to clip off high spots and slight downward angle of bucket to backdrag
Idea for you. Would putting in a few piers and installing used outdoor pallet racking help keep the RRPC tidier. You could put lumber, firewood baskets, and attachments on it freeing up space in the yard.
I have four sections of 8'x8' pallet racking with a simple metal shed roof that I store my firewood on. Each one holds 1.75 cords. Thinking of getting several sections of 12' pallet rack, putting them back to back with a gable roof over the top and two tiers for storing implements on pallets.
Well big guy, when my wife wants to go out to eat, she has my daughter ask me. She thinks I don’t know what’s going on but she knows that I have a hard time saying no to my daughter. Thats how my wife ended up with a pool, hahahaha. With that said, I am getting ready to buy “daughter Shelby” a ranger. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good morning Morgan’s 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Putting some rip rap around the end of the pipes will help the erosion and contain the gravel. But I'm sure a guy like you knows that
To keep that gravel in place, I mix in some portland cement with it and splash some water on it before the next rain.
It’s always nice to see the girls show up in a video. It just makes me smile to see them. Learning to run the cameras is a good idea. My sister has a Subaru.Tell Hannah to get the timing belt changed when it supposed to be done or some engines can be seriously damaged if it breaks. Have a great day and the driveway turned out very nice.
Couldn’t agree more on incorporating the girls in your vlogs 👍
Mike I didn’t miss the hand clap at the beginning. By the way I do miss the intros and extros from your faithful and talented viewers. Glad to see the girls in your vlog.
@@jamesmorse4110 I wonder what happened to the intros and outros? I haven’t heard they can’t use them.
My Land Pride LP actually came with a cutting edge on the back
Nothing I love more than left over mashed potatoes lol
I like to add some onions to the potatoes and make patties and fry them.
You mentioned the brick house, do you rent it out ? You haven't mentioned it for a while. Have you checked on the pond lately?
I see you have used 2 different tractors in your videos . I have a Mahindra like the red one you used ? Which one do you like better and why did you change?
Grading Scrapers, Do you prefer a 6-foot over and 7 ft?
Grading Scrapers, Do you prefer a 6-foot over and 7 ft?
Is the music from the 60’s. Dave from West Virginia.
ARCHIE!!!! …. Your such a good puppy-smart-easy going
Mike you need a roller ,I got one and it stops a lot of the rain washout . like you said a 6 ft is a perfect size to crown a road a pass each side, get a trailed vibrating one with its own engine.
Just want you to know I felled and bucked my first two trees this week. I also am making a Renewable Energy Processing Station in my back yard. Notice I said station, that way it can be the REPS for short. I think Melissa and the girls will like that!
Lol
Steve did you take your white shirt and tie off first? 🤔
Pitch the drive, Dig out a ditch and rip rap it to slow the water velocity will a fix that run/wash off the road
Gonna have to create a ditch that pitches water into the ditch and rip rapping the entire length of that ditch with 3 to 6” stone. Will catch and slow the flow of that run off.
Love the driveway/pool comment, Mike. I know there’s a pond out there, so why do you need a pool, Melissa?
She doesn't like to swim with snakes and snapping turtles.
David.... ack! She is tuff.
@@realairplane261 You are not married, are you.
DOGS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THE FURNITURE MIKE WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT IN VIDEO !!!
Awesome channel I love the Morgan’s with all there projects going on Say hi to Hunter
young man ,
your mom driveway look very nice / but if u wind roll small stone back to one side , and put down some / D BALLAST STONE , MIGHT TAKE FEW MONTHS , TO SET UP GOOD , THEN WANT WASH OUT !
THEN ROLL SMALL STONE BACK OVER / D BALLAST STONE / THIS WAY WANT BE SO ROUGH DRIVE OVER / D BALLAST STONE !
HOW TO BUILD A CROWN WITH LAND PRIDE OR BOX BLADE , JUST ANGLE THE BLADE ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER SIDE / ALSO U CAN DIG A NICE DITCH THIS WAY TOO , " MIKE " !
We had one rain where there was so much water moving so fast it washed the ditch out 3' deep including where it dug sandrock right out of the ground
Told you, the swimming pool is in the works, he is just not letting you in on it.
Awsome job on the Driveway touch up!!👍👊
Thanks for the video. Thank you Eva for the camera work you are fourth child but first in our hearts.
MIKE SCARED THE COTTON TAIL RABBIT WITH THE REAL LOUD MUSIC ON THE VIDEO
Good stuff mike!
Pave your drive and tell Melissa you lied about the pool. Hehe!
The stone yard must send you a Christmas card! Looking good
That’s what I’m talking about. He must have bought over 250 yards of stone in the last 3 years!!
More rain coming. Morgan fixed his driveway. 👍
Good morning from NE Pennsylvania. Have a day
How is going backwards any different than planning forward ? Same bumps right?
Nope, i explained why towards the end of video
That rabbit is funny. I have several rabbits and a couple of skunks. They wait for me at work. I bring them apples, carrots ect. They all get so excited to see me. God bless
How much do you pay for a Tri-axle of crush and run
I thought Him being in the business He is in, He would know about the ability of the tractors 3 point hitch system to float and make the drag level!
Huh?
Good morning all, Phil here from Kansas City. The Covid-19 shutdown is affecting my ability to re-order at the Stihl store, 3 of the 4 models I ordered are out of stock. Have a Day.
I will be glad when enough people wake up to this "plandemic" hoax and kick this country back into gear !
Mike - what grass mix was that? I need to seed some spots
When you do this do you do it with the 3 pt in float mod?
Please explain 'cement stabilize' when referencing a well pad.
Enjoy the videos. Keep'em coming.
We call it soil cement in East Texas, and is simply mixing in portland cement with the subgrade material. This is done by placing the cement on top of the subgrade with a bulk cement tractor trailer rig with special dispensing tubes. The amount used is dependent on many factors to numerous to mention here. After the cement is placed a machine that looks like a giant troy-built tiller, and is called a stabilizer, mixes the cement and a layer of subgrade together while adding water to control dust and begin hydration of the cement. This is followed by graders and compactors which develop the final grade. This must all take place before the cement cures. That's why they always seem to be in a hurry.
Have you tried recyled Class 5?
I love how you explain stuff you do. Its really helpful
Mellisa phone the pavers!😃
Try a lane shark for ur mom’s lane
🇵🇱🚜🇵🇱🚜🇵🇱🚜KUBOTA dobra maszyna, więcej filmów
Is the 2A limestone the same stuff as crush and run.
Yes
The actual name is crusher run, but crush and run is a good name if your crusher needs work.
YOUNG MAN ,
I BET U ALLREADY KONW THIS / U NEVER NEED TO CROWN HILLY DRIVE WAY OR ROAD / U WANT NEVER NEED TOO !.
Not true, You don't want water running down the center of the driveway, crown will get the water off
Since at the end you like backing up to spread to reduce the washboarding effect, would a box blade be better for the application of crowning? The crown in my driveway is a bit high, from rut base to crown center about 3 inches above my ankle! So needs to be shortened. ( last improved in 1989!!). Gotta get tractor first😃👍
I just purchased a rhino grader scraper. GS96. My driveway is wide. I love it.
I agree with you about the Subaru, Mike. I've owned several. Even with my 1993 Legacy, which sats much lower to the ground, I've never been stuck in the snows of Anchorage, AK. I'll never be so stupid to say that you can't get stuck but never have in over 30 yrs. When the snows were over bumper high, I'd drive my 4x4 pickup, otherwise, it was always my Subura!
😊😊💝💥🌎👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🍵☕
Can you do my driveway?
One nice feature on these Land Pride land plane is that the blades height is adjustable on each side. To crown a road, you can set one side lower than the other and let the blades do the work for you instead of trying to incline the whole tractor.
Yea you can definitely adjust them, I just like to keep the land plane level and do it the way I did because it's faster and easier for me. Also if you were wanting to pull some stone back up a driveway you would have to keep adjusting, or make sure sure your passes are in different directions for each side of driveway
I remember a time before box blades when we used a straight blade behind a tractor. You could angle it and drop one edge to shape a crown. More like a road grader. After that, take the land plane and work each side to take out ripples made by the straight blade.
All we ever have had is a straight blade. If the drive is too flat, we drop the right lift lever with the crank and pull some back to the middle. I turn the blade around to smooth. I’m not sure I could accurately back up the 300 yards of relatively flat drive up on top and I’m not ever going to back down the hill. That’s a recipe for a serious accident as steep as it is. I might experiment with turning the blade around and knocking out some of the rolling humps - those tend to build when the front goes over the top so the blade jumps up and then gouges. Good idea.
Hi, I think it's great that you have a 4thparty planned. But I am concerned for your beautiful Goldens. Fireworks are frightening for your dogs? Will they be prottected, I hope/
looks like Archie is going to be a big boy. My daughter and her family got a new golden puppy 8 months ago and they said Sunday the Knox weighted in at 100 pounds for his last checkup. Saying he is a big boy is an under statement. They also said the breeder told them the expected him to weigh about 75 pounds.
very timely video for me. I'm on the fence on purchasing a land plane or box blade for my 1000' fairly level gravel drive.
10-12' wide. Sub Compact green machine and JD doesn't make a land plane for it with scarifiers. The search is on.
There you go using logic and thoughful stuff. It's more fun just to do it any way you want and then complain how bad a job the TRACTOR does. (end sarcasm) Have a day Mike.
Who is "Hannah" ??
I thought her name was "Daughter Hannah" ????
;-)))
Have a Day, Yinz!!
Congratulations Melissa you are going to get your swimming pool before the driveway gets paved I think this means you are getting closer anyway??? Hey Hannah of course you can change a light bulb. Driveway is looking good Mike. Thank you for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter. Ed
Feel your pain about dogs jumping up on the couch. Got a 70lb Pit/Husky mix and adding a Great Pyranese to the mix this Saturday, so when it gets to forgetting it's no longer a puppy that's a 120+ dog forgetting she won't fit in your lap anymore.
Still Enjoying your content and education. Thanks Mike and Family!
Idaho Dreaming Cal in Kuwait.
Hannah looked like she had had a tough day. She also looked like she was discussed about having to replace the headlight again. At the end of the video, she seemed to be perking up while trying to play fetch with the dogs. Though, it did look like more of a game of I will throw it, then come and get it from you, and then go back and throw it again. My dog used to play that game when she thought I needed more exercise.
Sooo Happy to See All the Ladies on the Vlogs ❣❣❣ Great Job in changing the Head Lights there Hannah and don't give the Cop's Probable Cause to Pull you over for that Headlight especially at Night. Stay Safe ❣❣❣
Well great job Mike and wow Hanna has sure grown up in to a pretty young lady. And Mike I'd say that new stove for Melissa would be cheaper than a pool but hey a pool would be Nice to come on Mike think about the ladies. I'm trying Melissa Stay safe Morgans
I agree Mike. We have a Subaru crosstrek and an F250. In the snow the Subaru is unstoppable.
Mike, good think you put that rabbit disclaimer in the video or I am sure animal control would have paid you a visit :-)
First she want a swimming pool, now she wants a blacktop driveway! That
Melissa is becoming high maintenance! LOL
I agree with you about the Subaru Mike, I worked in a Subaru/Isuzu garage for years and always preferred the Scooby for snowy roads
Just want to tell you I received a yellow Simple Strap today in the mail. It is going to be wrapped around some lumber yard boards in the very near future.
Thanks for the lesson, getting 4 x 16 tons of ABC delivered & tailgated later this week. Going to try the backward land plane method.
Hey Mike, what are you doing with those limbs of fat lighter that you’re cutting off the logs? Those would be great for Melissa to use in your fire pit for starting those nightly fires. Great video, as always!
Mike you do need for the long run some cutting edges on the backside of the land plane. Your words ( I like to push backwards )
I have limestone too I put calcium after then it really packs. And no dust. We are way up north in manitoba Canada so I also use it for ice melt. We have lots of ice and cold but it works great
Love Yalls Content And It’s Good To Hear My Wife is Not the Only One Being Told No On Swimming Pool And Paving a 2300 Foot driveway 😂
Good information mike Hi girls an Archie have a day love from TEXAS
You should try using road millings on your driveway sometime. Good compaction.
A cutting edge will help to preserve the land plane. Without it and if you do enough grading it will wear it out and then you will have to have it cut out and replaced. Once it is worn it is to late to add a cutting edge.
Good morning from Yukon. Have a fantastic day. God Bless.
Hey bud, nice work! Especially for using a land plane!
