i see cars saying mechanic owned and maintained like its a good thing? I have been around auto-scene 40+ years, & worst maintained ever! i keep 4 beaters on the road for me to drive, many times I will get down to 1 or none before I do bare minimum to get back on the road, & wife has a pretty decent vehicle. but I am a body man, & mechanic, & work 2 jobs in 2 states, 7 days a week, & drive 600+ miles a week. in last 2 months I did more work to 1, than I did in last 12, its my primary & best gas mileage car, but I hope I am good for many months, still got to work on 3, but all are drivable at moment. also I need to find time to fix a duplicate to my good mileage car, so I have a good mileage backup car that would have me having 5 beaters on the road, & people will say buy new car, then I would have car payments,, everything I own is paid for, I paid home off last month, & I hate working on newer cars, even though I can. and with miles I drive, will run it out of warranty quick, and depreciate it fast, & lose more money in purchase than I paid for a few of my beaters, which technically owe me nothing.

Ive been doing drainage for 10 years now and i can say if you experience a lot of rain water flooding your property it would be wise to slope the sides of the open drain to negate the water from eroding the sides as much over the years. it also lets the grass grow which also acts as a bit of a filter as well as soaks up a lot of the rain.

Hello; Here's an idea for you. When the area is dry enough find a area you will never have plans for and dig a big hole, fill it with big rocks then smaller ones to make a space for all that water to drain into. Put in at least one culvert to cross the road and your problems will be a lot less. Find some FREE "rocky" fill to put in the low spots then come in with top soil. Sounds easy anyway. It's just a idea. Good luck and keep us posted. Be safe and well.

Looks good for grading mud!!. One of your other videos made me think of my boys. If you gave the older one a shovel and asked him to clean out the paths in my free form raised garden beds, I soon had a hole about halfway to China. Younger brother, same shovel and instructions, he was soon doing better than I did! He worked for several years for a local excavator. Boss was frequently impressed with how he could carry a grade. First time on a dozer, he started sliding on a pile of loose dirt, and the boss was sure he was going to roll it. He turned up the pile and climbed up to the top and came down straight. No problem. No rolled dozer. No squashed kid. Enough bragging about my brat. You say you're not good enough to eliminate all the puddles without a lazer, but you still remind me of my younger boy.

We did this when preparing a firm base for pipes [ 6 ft diam.] through creek beds...just a thought and I hope it helps...Gazza..final is to fill in the pit.

Where I attend church, the church and the property sits in a low area, what we ended up doing was in the field we dug a deep deep deep hole 30 foot by 30 foot, put winch of rock and gravel in it then covered it up. Now when it rains it seeps down in to the field quite well.
