    After the driveway is poured the contractor learns the owner has a triple stretch Mcclearen limo.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    That is a good idea. Glad to see someone thinking ahead. Hope they never choose to buy a different model of Flintstones mobile.

    This is so rare. So nice to see it being checked before hand. I did the equivalent to ensure that a tractor could be put into a garden shed.

    It looks like a high dollar driveway. Mine was poured using wire mesh.

    They are just verifying the gravel won't be a problem. Making the pour be a constant thickness over the complex curve would seem to me to be the bigger issue.

    They couldn't even attach a couple rake handles so they arent all hunched over and could actually see what they are trying to check?
