Excavate and Level the Base

at me, Robert Oberst. Love you, buddy. What I'm thinking here is we need to get a more of a gradual slope cuz we don't know how these pavers are going to go. So, what I'm going to do is just kind of cut this section out here. I'll get around there. But essentially, I kind of want these steps to be here. Let's just throw this spade shovel around. Hopefully, I don't puncture any sprinklers. What do you think, Kyle? You think that's deep enough? >> Probably not. >> No? It never is, is it? Only thing I'm trying to avoid right now is not digging enough, start throwing stuff around like the steps, just to bring the shovel out again. I prefer to sweat, then and done with sweating, and that's it. That's just me. What I'm looking for here is a nice gradual slope. And I'm not terribly worried about this because each step is going to bring us higher and higher, which with the hopes that this is our finishing line. The bottom here has to be deep enough for a strong first step cuz that's going to be our base essentially. >> You doing math on this one or you just shooting from the hip? >> Kyle, I've never done day of math in my life. You can ask my middle school teachers. It's all from the hip, baby. My brain doesn't work like that. I can't just sit down and plan things. The way I look at it is like a sculptor. You got to let the project tell you what it wants to be. Might as well pull some weeds while we're here. All right, we got a good decent base to start. By the time it comes up here, this should be fine, I think. As my voice is cracking of insecurity. Okay. Let's go get our supplies.
