OP slapped up a very nice informative video the same. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 63741134 United States 04/27/2018 11:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Guess this would be much more difficult, if not impossible with rocky terrain, unless that ends at some point underground, since we live in the mountains. Looks totally doable and a lot better than a few other vids I watched on diy well-drilling. I'm sure the company could give us advice there, but wow, this is very promising. Enjoyable video! |

It doesn't look that simple when he gets down to the deeper drilling and has to use his entire body to turn the auger. I guess I feel that I wouldn't be able to do this myself, since I am female and don't have the upper body strength that this guy in the video has. Very cool that it can be done in your own backyard and at little cost. Thanks for sharing this, OP. |

(my internet is too slow at this time of day to watch a video) Quoting: ArchimedesGirl A person could push 100' in a couple days. I used a 2" trash pump and a pit dug out to re use the water..used bentonite to stiffin up the bore hole.. But is it feasible to drill deeper than 300'?

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76520491 There are other ways possible, including using your own city water hose to jet out the well...using the water pressure to do the hard work. it's really all going to depend on your terrain. Sand and clay, no problem. rocks, problem. Youtube has lots of videos on doing your own well. I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you. Slake Blake |

All rock and no water. True for where I live I know, you can't dig down more than 10-15 feet before you hit granite. Gen. John B Gordon and Gen.

User ID: 76005121 United States 04/28/2018 01:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For anyone considering this, there are a host of 'tell tale' signs/plants/trees that give away water locations; black cottonwood is one such tree. They need a lot of water, and water is always close. The method used in the video is good, but so is a sandpoint driven well; it's tip you buy, then keep adding sections of pipe, while hammering into the ground; it works 'ok' even in rock. We commonly use a backhoe, dig about 20' deep pit, about the size of a small car, put about 6" of drain rock on the bottom, then vertically drop in a road culvert in the middle of the hole, up to grade. fill the rest of the open cavity with gravel. Not only do you have a shallow well, but the drain rock also acts as a sistern; depending on soil, you may want to add drain fabric before the gravel. From there, just look up northerntool, and they can hook you up with all shallow well accessories. Last but not least, if you live in an area, and don't have great water, what to do??? Shoot, like the technique in the video, there are many techniques that don't require a lot of resources. Go scout out an area that looks promising, if it's out of view of other people, dig your well. If Teotwawki comes, you at least have, and know a source of water. |
