    They do plant small trees pretty easily as well. Side benefit.

    Maybe I should actually DO some of that...

    You mentioned maybe refurbing the driveway? IF that includes buying more stone, it's been my experience the dump truck guys can tail-gate out a better, more even layer of gravel than I can get with my tractor.

    I'm going to go another way, instead of a box blade look at a land plane.

    They won't dig like a box blade and will level dirt and stone much better.

    The grader blade is good for snow removal and moving material but not great for leveling stone on a driveway.

    I've seen these but never used one. My yard is rough as a corncob, mostly due to mole activity. How does one of these do in smoothing out a yard?
