First you need to measure your walk how wide and long you want it add the square feet up so you know how much bricks and road crush needed.Next you dig down 7 inches alow for at least 4 inches of road crush and thickness of brick.next add your road crush wet the top,run tamper over wet crush.making it wet first will make it harder and more solid,next string line over top of base then add more crush to uneven areas,tamp again.make sure your base is level as possible with slight slope for drainage,next put cobble stone on top of base,nail edging on the sides.throw a thin layer of sand on top of the cobblestone and run tamper over it again this will shake sand in spaces between stones sweep it off and your done.I have over 17 years experience in landscaping so if you have any questions feel free to contact me.The hardest part of this is the leveling of you are having trouble with leveling get a long 2×4 put a level on it and look for gaps under board.Iwill post other how to’s on landscaping here but if you want to know something specific let me know and ill tell you how its done,Thanx.
