laying a stone patio -- how much gravel to put down

How much gravel (inches) should be laid as the base for a stone patio (presumably tamped down, covered by sand, tamped down, and then putting stone down)?

Comments

4 inches. I would also use crushed gravel aka Item #4.

You don't know what you are talking about

9:47, I assume you know something on the subject. Could you provide something a little more helpful? Merely discrediting another poster does little to help John get an answer.

I agree with the 4".

Thanks. And poster 9:47: thank you so much for bringing up such a painful subject. While you're at it, why don't you give me a nice papercut and pour lemon juice on it?
