I can see a "land plane" for a compact tractor in your future. They are great for maintaining gravel drives and filling potholes. Most are reasonably priced.
I really like the unique legs on your picnic table.

Here is a great video with some overhead drone shots showing a guy using a land plane for the first time to spread fresh gravel. It is pretty amazing. I wish I had some property and a Kubota…

I liked that, the video was excellent, and well done.

I spread out most of my gravel. I need to finish removing dirt/clay in the backyard for my camping area before I can spread the remaining gravel there.

I don’t have the standing water on the concrete like I did and the gravel area seems to be draining too.

I wanted 5/8 minus however all they had was 1”. It will move around more till it’s run over a hundred times.

My turn around is complete and I sprayed a DMZ between the grass and gravel so I don’t hit gravel with the mower.

I commented on the video earlier, but watched it again. If I was still living in Cumberland, with 300 yards of gravel to deal with, I'd think seriously about a land plane. As for your wish... ... we have some property and a Kubota, and Miss T loves the tractor. We set up a package before we left VA and they had it pretty much ready when we arrived in Oklahoma. I did quite a bit of research and listed to the First Rule... don't buy TOO Small a tractor, but don't buy MORE tractor than you need. We bought the L250l. It does 98% of what we ever need to do. If we need a bigger tractor, the neighbor has THREE tractors and is a really nice guy. I help him out in other ways, he drives his big tractor down. We have needed it ONCE so far, for 30 minutes.

We bought the implements we needed and you'll be amazed at what you can use them for. I added pallet forks to the list and Miss T rolled her eyes. I knew I wanted them to use for my Berm Wall for the pistol range. She has used them a lot, for all kinds of jobs. Never regretted the purchase once since she found out how useful they are. Moves the water troughs, brush piles, logs, rolls of rubber matting, Pallets of grain or hay (imagine that, pallets with pallet forks.).. and even lockers and tool bins from one barn to another. Much easier than the bucket.

Her Therapy? Bush hogging the fields.

Nice job, it will look really good when you are able to level it all out.
