Rewatched! Love rhis content
Nice tips for those of us (me) who've never used a box blade.
This video is extremely useful!!! Thank you for the tutorial!
We are glad it could help, Jim!
Pretty good video for beginners like myself that are learning the box blade. My driveway is on a hill so I've got to do more research then going off this video. Thanks!

You guys should make a small roller to compact dirt or gravel
Wheel pack it with the Vehicles you already have.
Best Wishes! M.H.
Good video, but water is a very important part of any good blading project. Without water youll not achieve compaction and rock will segregate leaving nothing but marbles which will need scooped up and removed and replaced with new rock. A good rule in the finish grade business is to never move dry rock. Each time its done youll lose fines.
Don't forget to crown your driveway a flat drive is not good you want the water to flow off the driveway
Yeah I noticed that, how would you do that. I'm a new operator and homesteader.
Just lean your box blade to one side a little. Go down one side of the road then come back up the next.
The right side of your 3pt hook up will have a turn buckle to adjust the lean.
@@jsavoy1 thanks! I see it now.
Why not offset the blade height and form a crown?
Thanks guys, very informative 👍😀

Not enough weight on the rear axle for that full load of gravel, add rear ballast with wheel weights and rimguard.
This video was meant for me
We use a BB 84 works great
so we're not going to crown this driveway?
Could you use that rock rake you got for the beach?
Hahaha love the little puns
Could you know I used the box plate on my gravel driveway And let's just say all of the gravel is at the n l o l
Thanks for the tips. :-)
How do you use the cat1 hitch on the box blade with a cat2 3pt hitch on the 5e?
Great question, Dan! Your local John Deere dealer is your best resource for technical questions like this one. You can find your closest dealer at Deere.com/Dealer.
Doesn't seem like a good idea though to mix all that grass and soil from the middle into driveway.
Can a box blade be used for grading 40-60mm rubble?
Thanks for the question, Ross. You can compare working width of our Frontier™ Box Blades here under the 'Compare Box Blades' tab here: bit.ly/3sIKHR2.

What would be a good base to put on top of sand, to help support the gravel?
A fabric made to place on top of sandy and soft soils with a crushed rock that is approximately 1 1/2 inch in diameter down to dust, 4 to 6 inches thick on top will compact when wet and makes the best surface.
#2 gravel makes for the best base
Dean Mey gave a great answer. People sometimes want to avoid the expense of the fabric on soft or loose solis but it can be critical as well as cost saving. Simple put, it keeps the gravel from being mixed/absorbed by the underlying material such as sand or damp clay mixtures. Think of the underlayment material kind of like a soil stabilizer without the brutal cost when doing smaller projects like driveways. Most of the fabrics act as a moisture barrier as well as keeping the base material separated.
@@deanmeyer1815 Excellent response.
That makes 2 guys that don't know what they're doing!
Sad. I have CRISP LINES and I did not make a video for the corporate world. Lazy Dave!
Drop 50,000 to repair a gravel drive. Got it.
