I have a very small area about 3' x 4' I want to add some layers of crushed granite and compact it to make a nice little patio area. In addition I might have some other similar sized areas I would like to do in the future. I want the granite to be fairly compacted but I do not want to rent or buy a plate compactor for this. However because I am a woman and don't have much power myself, I was hoping that maybe I could use some type of tamper that helps you out a bit instead of your traditional hand tamper in which all the power has to come from the person. I saw that Pave Tech has this tool called the Pounder which sounds like it could do the job.
