i think the hand roller is ok if you get on it quick enough,all the gypos have one and me as well!Dave_L wrote:I'd love a smaller paver like that BGP, ours is just too big for jobs like that.
personally i would have hand laid the wearing course,as from experience some customers dont like seeing a joint in their driveway,though there arent a lot of decent hand lay gangs around these days.
