Me watching the video. Brain: Okay cool that's easy. Hands: Shut up!

Pro Tip # 69. When burying landscape low voltage lighting wire, be sure to use conduit under any walkway so if it ever needs replacing, you can easily run a second run of wire. You'll thank me later.

This video made me realize I really enjoy landscaping and just building things in general! Thanks, Lowes, my partner sure enjoys watching me build a gazebo and her not helping but sure waiting to be able to have her friends over from brunch in it XD

Thanks so much for this video. Gave me the confidence and helped me complete my first paver walkway job at my house.

I think Lowe's tutorials are generally better than HD's.

Would be nice to have a part list of exactly what was used for this video...js

Damn, you can do a paver walkway in just 4.5 minutes. Amazing. Can't wait.

it would be helpful to see how you laid the chalk line for the first curved line.

I did this today and my everything hurts!

Just FYI, don't get the paver base sand from Lowes, it's very lumpy (chunks of clay and wood) and the reviews are bad, you'd be better off with regular sand or paver sand base from somewhere else. Get more polymeric sand than what you think you need (and be sure after you pour it you tap all the paver blocks because it will suck down the polymeric sand a bit) then pour some more. The paver panels are expensive and you'll need more than what you think but I do like them and they seem to make things easier.

Cutting blocks was easy with grinder with concrete cutting disk.

Once you pour the polymeric sand and start sweeping it in the cracks you will see it take shape and feel a huge since of accomplishment and relief as the end is near!

Our project was the paver blocks shown at very start of video and cost around $600 and included walkway (about 20-25 feet) and small landing pad by side door.

Looks easy. I'll buy a house tomorrow and try it out.

There is also something called carpet stone which is man-made cobblestone wired together on the back. Probably easier to install and can be stained with concrete stain. Lowes sells these too.

very detailed, I really like the explanation in this video. I can follow it as soon as possible.

My toxic trait is thinking I could do this with no experience without a problem

[sickturbohatch]
