I've done two places for the horses and getting ready for another this year with stuff like in the links below. one place had quite a bit of clay and the other had been a wheat field for years. I built both on top of the ground I had. For the plastic (on the clay), ran a vibrating packer over it, bordered the area with the concrete ones, leveled the area inside with about 2 inches of max 1/4 inch slag, layed the plastic pavers, filled everything with sand and ran over again with the packer. Horses make fools of themselves on it, I drive over it etc, etc. and no problems.
For the concrete ones (better eat your Wheaties), just flattened/leveled the place off with some max 1 1/2 inch limestone, layed the pavers, filled with a mix of sand and 1/4 inch slag, run the packer and covered with about an inch of sand. This mixed with manure and walked in real good over a couple of months works real well. Will be doing a roundpen in a month or so the same way. These things cost a little more, but when you figure the saved labor and materials, you may come out better. Good luck.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
