hi youtubers welcome to my workshop I thought I'd make a quick video because what I want to do is to build a small runway for my remote-controlled aeroplanes which I want to take off from the ground rather than to throw them and so this is going to be a project which is going to take a couple of months but I thought I'd do it in a few parts perhaps and just sort of show you guys what I've done in order to get a nice flat surface from a field - to make my demo of runway so first things first I'll show you what I've got at the moment and show you why I need to do something for rather drastically to get it into a nice flat surface ready for airplanes to take off from it so outside sorry it's gonna be a little bit windy today so I'm hoping it's not going to interfere with the microphone too much on my camera but as you can see this is the the runway that I want to get nice and flat and the problem with it is that it's it's really bumpy really really bumpy I don't know if I show you what it's like here but it's too rough to get any kind of taxing along the runway ready for takeoff so what we've done is we've used roundup to kill all the grass and is this just it's just field grass so it's rough in its course so we want to get it really really nice and flat almost like a bowling green if a bit ideally so we've treated the whole lot with we round up it takes about a week or two to get down to the roots and kill it and it's about at that stage now and if you can see behind me it's starting to yellow up and it's really dead now there's a little bit of green left in it but not too much so tomorrow is when we're going to start to rotavator and get it all you know all the roots up and get into a stage where we can actually roll it and reseed it with some proper grass so that's tomorrow's job and so I shall product coming in oK we've rolled it again and again probably about six times now and now we're just seeding it with if that's in focus nope can't get that in focus anyway Boston seeds and it's bowling green seeds and I'll get the the details in the link below
