going to lay out a 12' x 12' patio using simple concrete stepping stones (8x16) in a boxed basketweave pattern. will be using one of the big box paverbase panel systems rather than gravel (hoping to save my back!). then sand. but the reviews for the big box polymeric sand (sakrete) are kinda weak. was considering gatormaxx G2, but its website says one of the installation steps is vibrating with a compactor & pad. yet, many other sites, including this subreddit, suggest that vibrating, even with the pad, is asking for broken pavers. Help! do i vibrate or not? via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/3gidoul
