[QUOTE="mfyock, post: 23919, member: 2150"] Filter sock wasnt cheap. Paid about $.25/foot in 100 foot rolls. I figured I might as well do it right....Didnt decide if I am going skidsteer or miniexcavator. We are low on rain here so the ground is getting dryer by the day. We will play it by ear... -When you say rocks shouldnt be next to the pipe you are talking big rocks right? Like fist size? I have a bunch of shale soil, so its all basically small rocks. -Do you check the trench with a transit for elevation, then drop the pipe in and recheck? Or how do you go about it? I have used a transit many times for shimming equipment on a large concrete pad, but I have never used it to do drainage work. How often in the trench do you check elevations? I suppose if you didnt check close enough you could have a bunch of highs and lows that wouldnt flow. [/QUOTE]
