J/K!! Anyway, here are a couple phone pics of a walk we are doing. There will also be 850 Sq. ft. of the same around a pool in the backyard complete w/ sitting walls and fire pit. Backyard pics to follow as they become avail.
BTW - I am aware of the trip step at the landing....they didn't want to pay to rip out the pad so we veneered the stoop and they are OK with it.

Looks nice to me. I think i would have tied the walk into the step all the way back vs. a foot from the end. I think it would have looked better faning out to the landing vs just running into it.

I can't wait to see the pool.

John - There will be a wall there in the near future. It will start right at the point the walk hits the landing. You can kind of see where the old wall was on the far right.

CG when you are about to make your cuts you need to switch the pattern up to advoid slivvers. Even in a repeating pattern I will make neccessary changes to never get more than a 1/2 peice. Otherwise looks great. If you were closer Id sub you all my work!

hey grass boy, don't you talk to Chris like that.

On second thought, Chris, I would take out those slivers, and just plant some grass in the joints :D

You bet! I thought the color combo turned out real nice. I really looks sweet when it's wet. It was my first time using Inca and I like it.

Chris, the inca is a different thickness than your soldier, right? what was your method for leveling them out at same elevation?

Almost as nice as my cutting Chris, way to go. jk How did you get away with compacting, or did you? Looks great, nice lines

Mark - We screeded our 1" of sand and overlayed and cut the Inca, then we went back and troweled out the sand to accommodate the thicker Cov. paver. Inca is 2" and Cov. is 2 3/8"

Zedo - Thanks, you are my inspiration. We mallet set everything, for fear of breaking the Inca, although we did run the tamper w/ polypad over a section around the pool and it turned out fine.
