  • How can you know when you've reached the water table?

  • @TimThePlumber001 you have to stop drilling, let the water settle out for several hours, and measure how far down the standing water is. Or, ask your neighbor how far down his water table is.

  • This video is popular on Malta

  • @itostrong923v Wow!  Thanks for letting me know.

  • How about pushing some red hot concrete nails into the end of the pipe?

  • @josephdupont I'm interested but, give me an idea as to how you would do that.

  • Oh Sch 40 PVC, what can't you do?

  • @dawmlw cut the head off the nail, hold with vice grips to heat, red hot not, just hot insert into pre drilled holes slightly smaller than the nail. Might work......

  • I want this video on my 6108 unit.

  • also i didnt leave that comment to stop anyone from doing this, just please use a simple mask at least, i have close ties to the plastic industry and get my info about the dangers straight from the manufacturer

    great video and im subscribed now, i have a great interest in well digging, i find it fascinating and have been interested since i 1st saw well digging through the akvo foundation here on youtube, they have great well digging vids

  • hope you wear a respirator or SOME kind of mask for breathing as pvc dust and fumes, WILL kill you depending on how much of it you inhale/ingest

    cutting pvc is one thing, softening it up with heat is one thing, but grinding it to a dust is about as bad as you can get without directly burning it
