The usual method is to get a couple of sheets of plywood and lay one
down, roll the machine along it, place the next one down and roll the

front, etc.

Right! The only tricky part will be to keep the rollers from dropping down
between the plywood sheets. Having the sheets run at an angle to the direction
of motion would be a big help. If the ground is really soft, you could stitch
a 2x4 under each junction, and it would just push into the earth and allow the
sheets to stay together.


Just "underlap" the ends of the plywood.
