Go to woodprix page if you'd like to know how to build it. Great solutions for everyone I think.
Cool video Brett.
do you not need to lay a membrane down to stop weeds coming through ?
This time I'll use woodprix instructions to make it by myself.
patio area I need to lay is uneven n huge area! aw nutz gonna be pricey
Use membrane its cheap and will stop weeds
Is it me or that's a lot cement doing that way, why no membrane ever..
i don't do patios but why not lay it on a lime mortar
Dig 30 cm deep about 10 cm wider than the patio you want. Compact in 5 cm of base stone. Cement in border stones. Compact in 17 cm of base stone. Top with 5 cm of 3 – 5 stone drawn flat. Lay 3 cm pavers. Fill with quartz sand.
not how I would have done it but not bad.building sand for pointing, sharp sand for mixing sand screed which I would have done dry

What sort of plate compactor should be used to compact soil and hardcore? Can a small compactor be used (even if I go over the area a few times)?
Too much work. we now screed on one inch conduit or the like. Compaction is key then gravel that holds form and binds together, then a bed of stone dust to allow discernment of intellectual compository properties the variance of forgiveness and akin to steel and metals. In other words, build your base , compact. Build another base of gravel, compact. Bed of dust with pitch and polymeric sand. um, right?
