  • Wow.....looking at you is like looking at me 30 years ago. They say that everyone has a double, and I think I just bumped into mine. No joke....

  • @eyewarnedyou Well, I hope I get even more suave and debonair as I age... :)

  • I can't believe that you actually charge someone $550 for basically pumping air thru the pipe into the ground!! But if you did manage to strike a gusher would this be a Spring like natural spring water & would one have to employ filters &/or caustic chemicals?

  • @Begbucks This powered using an air drill, not just air going into a pipe. With this, we can drill through clay, even rock - something not possible by "basically pumping air through the pipe into the ground". Wells are very rarely springs (artesian), usually you have to use a pump to pull water out of the ground; and no, chemicals are rarely needed, most water is drinkable as is, but test it first. Many free test kits are available online.

  • uh? About that drill.....you aon't gunna be able to lay that thing over on a hole 10 feet down,like you did just then in thu videu.

  • @waterwart Of course not. I have drilled 210' wells with this system, through several rocks. This is just to show you that the drill, when it hits a rock, keeps grinding and working. It's to show the power, not to demonstrate the way a rock is drilled.

  • @DMagers No, the first four feet are dug by post-hole digger precisely so you don't have to do this. And no one said it cut through concrete like butter - but it does go through it. The point was to show how powerfully the drill grinds on the rock, not to show that I could drill through it in 10 seconds - something not even a 100,000$ truck-mounted rig could have done.

  • no way it will drill solid rock. most places dont have large sheets of solid rock though, without there being some kind of sand or clay in between.

  • @ladygrace1023 lot of laugh, you made me laugh, this video or set up is very peremature, secondly one can not drill stones or rock with ch a high speed, the drill bit should be carbide tipped whicher can drill rocks, (cylindrical type carbid drillbit which uses water to cool the carbide tips, thirdly h e has to make arrangement for sending the tool down the water whole along with of thater supply to send mud and broken sand out well, also he has to solve the problem of air which will gush out

  • @HowToDrillAWell You know I should be engaged in "Water Well Drilling for Dummies" but since I skipped those passages, I'm the all the wiser on these posts lol. Thanks for the tips & timely response. You know; We normally go to a Spring to bottle our own some 29 miles RT & have been at it for some 29 years. I really getting tired of it every 19 days on cue but won't ingest anything touted as "FDA safe" from the tap.

  • I hope OSHA is not on You Tube.
