🔧 WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

• How to smooth and level gravel the right way
• The “whippy rake” technique that creates a clean finish
• When this method works—and when it doesn’t
• How to prep your gravel before winter

⸻

⚠️ IMPORTANT

This method is best for:
✔ Driveway aprons

💡 PRO TIP

Do this BEFORE the ground freezes.

👉 You want the gravel compacted and solid going into winter, with just enough loose grit on top for traction.
