Fastest way to drive a sand point well. #sandpointwell #drivingasandpointwell #karlsoffthegrid

Published 2021-06-27
In this weeks video I demonstrate the fastest way that I am aware of for driving a sand point well. Don’t spend hours working your butt off, work smarter. Hopefully we hit water at the off grid cabin.

    Karl, every set back has a better comeback! Keep your head up wells can be tricky.
  • Gitter done Karl, yes my daddy showed me years ago that if you place a check valve under the pitcher pump it will allow the pump to draw water at a deeper depth. Even the local well driller told him it wouldn't work, until he came and watched my daddy do it, he was amazed!!! Thank you for the video and Lord Bless Yall.

    I put the well in on my place by hand, here in north central Florida you have to get down about 110 to 150 ft deep,the first one I done was with 2 (2x12x16 ) ft board made a tower over the pipe put a pully at the top eye hook screw and the heaviest oak log i could lift and for 8 hrs a day for a week I drove that pipe 132' through clay,limerock finally hit the spring,the one I done for my daughter and her man I rented a skid steer with a post driver it only took 4 hrs to go 220'

    Thank you, Karl ,for showing me how a sand point looks. I helped my father drive one for our house but I was about 17 years old and had no understanding of the whole process. He has now passed, and I have the home. Thank you for the explanation.

    It's good that you posted the video to show everyone that there is the risk of a set-up. Not a failure, just a set-back. Take care!
