Before laying the country track is also necessary prepare the primer. It should be, focusing on the markup, remove 25−30 cm of soil (it is necessary to achieve a flat surface), on the bottom of the formed deepening recommend to lay drainage filler (artificial stone, expanded clay, glass) to retain moisture.

At this stage you can start laying selected material. Each case will be considered separately.

Wooden chumps for tracks are obtained by cutting previously dried logs in areas of equal length that need to be treated with used engine oil or a special antiseptic. Then cut off the part of the wood chip with a crescent and place it in the ground. We do the same with the rest of the chumps. As a pillow in this case is used tamped sand (5 cm).

Concrete tracks

The laying of concrete tracks is carried out by two absolutely different ways:

Concrete stone is laid like paving slabs. The stone itself is obtained by pouring the concrete solution into a special form. It is important to avoid at the same time void formation in the compartments of the form, evenly distributing the solution in shape. After the concrete has hardened, the stone can be removed from the mold. Once prepared the right amount of stones proceed with laying tracks.
