    Please look into a "Floating Top Link" for the land plane. It would allow the plane to articulate a little and run evenly on it's skid rails.
    These are commonly used in 3pt finish mowers.

    • @ogreatmaster8334
      @ogreatmaster8334 3 роки тому

      You actually need a solid top link adjusted to force the rear blade down to make it cut similar to the front one. If not, the land plane tends to want to just tip forward with the rear blade not doing anything. Top link adjusted with down force for the rear blade and a hyd side link is the best setup. Side link lets you tip the roadway right or left to your choosing.

    Suggestions for rebuilding the stream bank so it will not erode the driveway. Watch these two videos for a general idea of how to get the water to slow against the driveway and flow faster away from the drive, they are a bit long but have some good info there in them that can be applied to your situation. ua-cam.com/video/oeSMSZUJGCM/v-deo.html&t roughly the first 7 minutes or so listen for thalwag and vanes, and in my tiredness this day I cannot for the life of me find the other video that shows how to move the thalwag and what effect it has. Regardless some of the dam removal videos and river restoration videos show the same thing, install a vane into the bank you are trying to save to direct the water away from it. You could probably use some big-ish rocks, say roughly 3 feet long by 18 inches wide by 4-5 inches thick or so, stick them down into the creek on the thin edge and dug down into the dirt point the end in the creek upstream and have it lower than the edge that is stuck into the bank by the driveway making a V shape, pack lots of compactable gravel and dirt around the stone where you dig it out. If you get it right you can actually bring the bottom of the ditch back up as sediment and what not settles against the rock upstream of it. You have to make a levee/lock system with the rocks in the grade to do that.

    I'm interested in how your post hole digger stays so vertical. I hook up my post hole digger to a little Yanmar 165, and I usually have a helper with a pole to the gear head at a 90 degree angle to hold lateral vertical and as I go down with the digger I move the tractor forward at a tangential to keep fore and aft vertical. In other words, I can dig a five-foot deep crooked hole very easily. Still better than without any tractor.

    Hi Mike-Its impressive how in so many of your videos you are dropping the gravel evenly from the bucket as you go. I believe I have seen every one of your videos, and unless I missed it, don't believe there is one showing the camera angle from inside the cab when dropping the gravel. This one gave me that idea as at the very beginning during the intro you look like your ready to start dropping it and then it cuts away. I thought how awesome it would be to watch from that camera angle. If it is in covered in another video, maybe you could note in a reply. If not, its just a suggestion as it would be great to see your technique from that perspective. Thanks again for everything you share here!

    I had a similar problem but it was crossing my driveway and washing it out. The pipe was too small so I put in a larger corrugated pipe that was covered in a silt fabric, then I put 3 - 4 inch stone over that and topped off with more fabric then stable mat and crushed stone. Problem solved, two years later I had my complete driveway covered with fabric, stable mat, stone, then reinforced concrete. It wasn't cheap! My driveway is over 2 thousand feet long. Boy did that take a bite out of my wallet!
    Keep up the great videos.
    The corrugated pipe will let most of the water to flow through then the remaining will flow naturally.

  • @billonthehill9984
    @billonthehill9984 5 років тому

    Good job Mike. Your Mom will appreciate this I am sure. Mike, I mentioned it in a earlier video on the use of road fabric. The low side ditch running alongside the d/way would be a good spot to use it. I prefer using my bucket but a angled scraper blade can do it too. Positioning your bucket perpendicular to the ditch, you can cut & shape it to your liking. I like the bucket because it gives me better control with quick results. Once you achieve the look you are looking for, now it's time for the road fabric, cuts easily enough with a utility knife. After it is layed down, now your ready for the riprap. Two things are accomplished doing this: (1) You save the stone, it stays on top of the fabric, forever & (2) it helps to contain weeds that tend to grow in these wet environments.
    I mistakenly lent some of my fabric to my 80 year old neighbor down below my property a few years back. It was originally a 500 ft. roll but had about 286 ft. left on it when I let him take it home on his tractor for a small project he was working on. I allowed him up to a 100 ft. & no more than that. It took me close to (5) years to get it back & when push came to shove, I called Forbes & insisted I need my road fabric back, please... A few hours later he shows up with it, takes it off his truck under one arm & throws what was essentially an empty roll in the yard, i.e. 27 feet. Yes, I was pissed, big time. The moral of the story, NEVER AGAIN will I lend that man anything!

      box blade is just as easy once you know how to use it and the box can do many other things in addition. I once tilled a 1/4 acre 4-5 inches deep with the tines on my box blade and can be used to move dirt or gravel in bulk not just turn it over. best to have both.

    The rip/rap is great idea, for controlling the flow of water. Another possibility is to lay down some sort of mat that's used to control soil erosion and make several piles of the rip/rap in different places along the length of the area. Unless that's a small branch, then then the rocks should do the trick.

    I really enjoyed that Mike and it didn't require a whole lot of thought. I think your Mum must be very proud of you.

      If you would put a cross pipe (culvert) across the road right below where the water comes to the road it would solve your problems all along the road. You can't run water forever along a road and not expect problems.

      I always liked a box blade and they work great, these land planes just seem even a little better
