Such simplicity and innovation used to provide something so valuable to these people.
It looks hard work drilling it but i guess it shows you how weak westerners are compared with other people whom don't have the benifit of all our labour saving machinery.
@markdangerman the idea is to have it self-explanatory, so you don't have introduce any language problems. The way the video is now, you can show it people speaking any language, and they will still stand a good chance of understandig it.
@88arau Depends on the soil type: it will only work in sandy / clay soil, at most with small stones. In the US it is probably easier to get a commercial company to drill a well, though.
This is just great. Hard work and know how got these people something alot of people dont have, Water. I wish good luck to the workers and the people they help. Thank you for sharing this video,Rob
Thanks! It is the accomplishment of Wolfgang Buchner, in Bolivia. He has founded a water and sanitation school EMAS, teaching these technologies to the world.

@mtwestra: Hahaha you got the $5,000 for the machine for me to borrow? S. Oregon is high desert.

@88arau Ah :-) Than you might need to drill rather deep. Although, with this technology, holes up to 100 m have been drilled.
