Perfect! I was just looking at those textiles of grid for RV pads! It's like 3K for a pad. You just cut my cost drastically!! ❤ it. Thank you

if you don’t cut all the way through the pipe and alternate each side it will leave a tab on each one connecting them together and use zip ties to connect them group too occasionally.

nice. i did my whole driveway 1500 square feet using old carpet for the cloth (free) and plastic pallets that i cut the feet off ($3 each) and connecter to each other with stainless steel zip ties. whole project with stone and gravel $720. 5 years later still working great . the only maintenance is to do a little weed killer each summer. BTW i actually got a permit and had it inspected and passed. they wouldn't let me have a gravel driveway and concrete and blacktop was way too expensive and required storm drain crap .... anyway they accepted a permeable driveway and i even made a brochure presenting the pallets as a commercially available product. they bought it LOL !

i love this guy! would love to see this packaged up and sold... a bunch of bags of gravel show up with a 20' hose, a hacksaw, and a cassette with this voice over.

Being a womble, living in a muddy quagmire 8-9 months of the year, I absolutely love this idea! Thank you for this video!

Pure genius. Thank you for this. We've been looking for a cheap alternative to make a passable road on our property in the mountains of OK. This is just the ticket!

I'm giving a thumbs up for having real cut-offs.

I have seen a similar idea but for a complete road. They used old tyres instead of pipe.[ they cut one wall off the tyre to make it easier to fill ]

Mate! I'm from New Zealand and I can say without a doubt you'd fit in here easily. You're a practical genius with this little solution. I'm going to use it down the back of my property, can't wait to try it :)

I found the same type of thing on my farm from guessing about the 1950's. It was made up of 8" long sections of old clay tile forming a large half circle and was where the entrance to a long ago demolished barn sat. Took me a while to figure out what it was but it apparently solved the water problem back in the day.

We used old carpet for a geotextile fabric. It worked great, even at the barn entrance over a cattle panel. Totally stabilized the soil, no more deep mud pit from cows and horses walking through

I'm so glad your channel was recommended! An incredible DIY idea and executed supremely. Looking forward to seeing more videos, old and new!

An area near where I live, Troutdale Oregon, does this for cheap trails, pathways, alleys, and sidewalks alongside French drains or other drainage ways. There are areas there that have very poor soil stability. On managed forest paths they'll even sometimes do this, but most of the time they use natural materials that build better soil when they break down. The construction workers here do use the store bought methods when they're on a tight schedule, but use your method when on a budget or needing more structure, like a stable, high drainage base for pavers or heavy traffic wear.

Super work. I have been working in the same idea. Now my work won't be a test. You be well.

Ahhh this is excellent! I have heaps of this drainage pipe that I picked up for free. I was only planning to use the good pieces for drainage but now I can use the rest to stabilise my yard/drive/parking and garden path. Can’t wait to try it! I love reusing waste materials and solving problems :)

dude... CHUCK... you are the man! your DIY ideas are just outta this world, man! thank you for teaching me yet another valuable DIY skill as rain season quickly approaches and I anticipate some drainage issues on some freshly regraded terrain

Even better would be mixed grade, aka crush and run. The fine powder of crush and run helps lock it together. The pipe pieces would help stabilize it for your conditions.
