thank you for those! I was surprised as dh was finding it doesn't need a canvas! But it must be a LOT thicker and has to be sealed in order to not have a cover. But we may do the dirt floor and then use the canvas for "rugs" that we can even move around. Or at least use until we get it all done. I haven't fully decided now that I'm learning more again

OH and we're doing this at this point, though I'm learning more

:

1) ground

2) we have a several inch layer of small stones and dirt that is being wetted down and driven over until it's all solid like cement.
3) then we're doing maybe an inch or two of the dirt (which is heavy clay) and tamping it down
4) Canvas like a carpet
