  1. Hi Mark! Like Story, I have also watched all your videos. My husband and I were just talking yesterday about installing the Dirt Locker on our property here in Oregon. We have a hillside that is similar in size however it curves in the opposite direction. Have you ever installed in that shape?

  2. Hello mark, another impressive video. Can't wait to see your products to go moon. I have sent you an email in regards to possibly work with you moving forward. Hope to speak to you soon

  3. Can these be placed on top of landscape fabric or tarp? I'm planning to start a peony garden on a very large hill/slope area that is full of weeds and crabgrass it this durable and holds up well?

  4. How is CMU a retaining wall? Those don't really look like blocks I'd use for a structural retaining wall…. 🙁

    This dirt locker looks interesting, but … I just don't think it's long-term without regular and complete maintenance. Course, neither are timber retaining walls.

  5. Glad and thankful both that you have provided this video for us. My home is in Indiana. Because of our inclement weather here, we experience quite a bit of shifting sloped areas. Lots of rain, lots of ice and snow is severely hard on some of our properties here.
    Im very impressed with this as an idea for a corner of my front lawn that slopes down to my driveway.
    The first issue is that my main natural gas line and water line both are buried underneath that areas dirt.
    Have to be very careful with even hand digging. So im thinking this is a great idea for my sloped corner

  6. I think you are too critical of the retaining wall , I think it looks great.

  7. The home owners did a really great job of explaining and marketing the comparison between the Dirt Locker vs their traditional retaining wall. Awesome video

  8. I absolutely love this can't wait to calculate and order. We have a very steep hill where our house was built. It is eroding and even gravel is washing away. Got to save our investment. I particularly like how you can step on them and walk up for maintenance.

  9. I would love to use this for my steep back slope, where I was considering a retaining wall, but I just don't know how long this will last.

  10. can you use this around existing shrubs . I have a steeper slope than the one in your video with creeping junipers spaced around 5 feet that we planted a few years ago and mulch that is hard to keep in place . Looks like it may be a solution . Just dont want to ripp out shrubs

  11. "I think a little bit of my soul is in that wall" Part of me is laughing and crying at the same time. It always looks so easy when professionals do but,.doing it yourself is totally a different story.

  12. I love his exasperation when he said "I think a bit of my soul is in this wall"

  13. This is great but at $11 per large interlocking peice it's hard to imagine that's it's cheaper than a retaining wall if you're doing it yourself. Am I reading the price wrong?

  14. I was just looking into building retaining walls. This just seems so much easier and I kinda need all the pieces to my soul.
