Repairs to the Driveway for Drainage & Maintenance #10
Our driveways are a hot mess, but until we can get our hands on a backhoe, there's regular maintenance that just has to happen after any major rain that comes through. This is one of those sessions. #homestead #homesteading #DIY #colorado #maker #wilderness #outdoors _________________ Visit our website and purchase some of Ali's handmade soap https://lazyaholeranch.com
We decided with all the craziness going on that it was really important to get the garden in full swing this year. I constructed 2'x3' raised beds out of corrugated metal and 2x4s. Each bed cost about $43 to make, and will cost the average handy-person even less because I made several errors which resulted in me using half again the amount of wood originally required.
Cut list for 7 raised beds:
2x4x19.5" x 38 and rip 14 of those into 2x2s. (four 2x4s and four 2x2s per bed)
2x4x25" x 14 - rip to 2x2s (four per bed)
Miters - 45 degrees
inside corners 36" X 14 (two per bed)
Inside corners 24" X 14 (two per bed)
Corrugated metal (note actual size is 26" even if sold as 24")
Purchased six of the 24"x12' and cut to fit the inside dimensions of each box.
Assembled with #10 x 3 1/2" coarse auger thread construction screws for the wood, and pan head sheet metal screws #8 x 1" (went through 1+ boxes of 100)

I re-edited this video because the original had zero info. I hope that you all find this one way more useful! I include the costs associated so far with the build and some info on what to expect if this is something you're interested in doing.

Episode 100?!?!?! I can't believe that we are already on episode 100! I first started this channel in 2017, but didn't really start making regular videos until mid to late 2018. I started this channel purely to keep myself busy, and it's grown and changed as much as I have. Thank you so much for you love and support over the past 2 years while I work through a whole bunch of things.

It is still winter, but we did have a short break in the weather for some continued excavation on the driveway. Most of it is at its final grade!
I purchased a dog food supplement for the dogs, which they love, & the tractor is really giving us a hard time. #homestead #DIY #colorado #outdoors #dogs #update #excavation

Winter has arrived at the ranch, and concrete isn't likely to happen until spring.
