debating on how to level ground

I had decent luck using our little roto-tiller to loosen the top clay (no soil, lol). it made for much easier removal of large amounts of soil, still hand to do a ton of hand work. Many bags of sand and the 2x4 pivoting from the center helped het a smooth bottom. This was for our old sofpool, so traditional AG's may need something different.

ok i bit the bullet and rented one of the small bobcats for sat. also found out that the pools here have to be 10ft from the back property line and 5ft from the side.
