capeholedigger is an unknown quantity at this point
Best tool I have bought is my Wacker 1600LB double vibratory roller. This thing is a walkbehind oldie that has a hand crank starter on a single cylinder diesel motor. It pounds the ##$% out of base and makes it perfect. Much better compaction and faster than the plate compactor. And I only paid $500 for it. Still need to change the oil! As Ferris Bueller said "if you have the means, I highly reccomend getting one of these".
