The last minute of this video is one of my favorite of all your clips. From the tears of joy welling up as you watch your dog drink to the unrestrained grin as you watch the water stream from your hose....priceless!
The look of satisfaction on your face at providing a bowl of water to your dog says it all. Congrats man.
As a fellow off-grid Homesteader like yourself, I have to say job well done!
We need more people like you on this earth. The world would be a much better place. Hard workers are hard to come by these days.
Thank you!
The sighs while the dog was drinking water you pumped from your own well says it all........love your channel
Wish I could give more than one thumbs up! Again, that moment you can give your dog fresh, clean water for the first time... What a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment you must have had!
The smile on your face says it all at the end of this video as you are maning the hose Congratulations Job well done
Wow! I didn't realize how much work that was. You think the Broken wheel ranch got into the same water stream as you? That Ruger is a handsome dog. You the Man, Heath.
Hi Heath, so happy all your hard work is paying off.
Man that is such a blessing I know you guys have been working towards this for a while now and I'm so happy that you've been blessed with such a great spot
You are productive!
The well was a blessing, so shallow and great water flow. The rest was the real work! Well done
Man, seeing you finally get water almost brought a tear to my eye. Great job!
Thanks again for another great video. Just wait till it's all done. It'll all be because of you and you know everything was done right.
Heath that smile on your face says it all. Hope the health issues are clearing up. Lots of prayers for a long fall season with lots of projects checked off!
Every time I’m challenged with my own off-grid project I see your videos and I find the motivation to hold my head up high and push in thru. Thank you man.
Amazing work... I did the same on our 6 acre land.. I installed 2 1,500 gallon water tanks... I hired Staten Solar to handle the electrical things... our water pressure comes out good but not strong enough. Good job.
It has been a ride that is for sure. But when some one has vision and focus there is no stopping the inevitable. Glad your doing what you want where you want it is an inspiration to the way life should be lived in my opinion. Great video.
Thanks!
I can't wait to see the video when your family moves in, but we still have more videos to get there. as always Thank you for shearing your journey.
You're got to love the smile on your face
Dude im crazy about this project i never miss a episode i fricking love it.....thank u sir everday i learn alot from u...about one day building my own home...u r very hard working and u r a one man army.....
Means a lot...
man, thats awesome story and footage. thank you.
Man, I got something in my eye!!! That is so beautiful!
Great job on the video and getting water to your homestead. Few more things off the whiteboard and you will be living there for good. Congrats.
As ever some man for one man. workaholic well done.
Wow you sure have black dirt rich best land for growing
Well done, Heath. Well done.
Glad you finally got your water problem solver!!!
Tom
Always look forward to your posts, Heath. Wonderful to see the water system working so well after all your hard work. Take care of yourself!
I'm so happy to tears for you guys! I know this is older but I'm watching for the first time. Praying it's going awesome! 🙏😎👍💯💦🐳✝️💙❣️🌄💛🧡💜
I hope you made sure the Hose Clamps had SST, Stainless Steel Screws as you had installed the Non-freezing Curbstops! One Tourist Camp i was in, didn’t know he should source SST Clamps with the Stainless screws and a year later from acidic 😮soil all his connections were leaking! It was devastating, to say the least!
Excellent video, always great content....thank you, we enjoy them so much!!
Glad to see you so far along, it looks great
Good work!
Great job dude👍😁
Always nice to hear from you, makes my day
Great job!!
Congratulations!!!
Awesome & wonderful video!
well done Heath. you have done your proud
That’s awesome
I tell you Red you did a fantastic job on the water and you taught me how to do this I will be there soon and I thank you very very much I appreciate your work ethics and share in your journey when all of this amazing work is finished finally YOU will be able to START ANOTHER LIST how about it LOL I guess that MEN like us WORK and TOOLS that's our VACATION well anyway great job and have a beautiful month
My grandfather was a mining engineer, a land serveyor and well witcher here in mn. Its legit!
The smile said it all.😂
Great Video, Very Happy for U & your family, following your channel for a while I know this was a big issue and it should be. Impressive job bringing water to your property. You have seriously increased your property value, Congratulations on a FANTASTIC JOB‼️👍👍. Vinny 🇺🇸
You really tide this project together with this short video - It must feel good to check off the potable water challenge - congrats
Great video! You've shown me exactly what I need to do at my place. Many thanks!
Very helpful I want to do like this in my village in saudi arabia thanks.
CONGRATULATIONS!
That Truck is lovely
Not sure if anyone mentioned this to you or not.
I have the same backhoe.
If you take off that mechanical thumb you get a lot more bucket curl, even if you put it in stored position you still don't get full bucket curl. I used it for brush and it was great but digging was such a pain I had to take it off, bent the main pin too. When its off and you use the yellow brackets your bucket teeth will be straight up with boom locked.
I haven't missed mine since I took it off and the extra bucket curl makes a world of difference for digging, still clearing brush but it takes a bit getting used too. Poor design to be honest,
dealership cuts part of the stick to make it work.
nice and cold water it seems. tthx for sharing
Good summary, thanks for sharing.
Great progress. I have not been wathing for a while and I'm surprised to see that much being done.
So happy for you omg game changer congratulations
God is good. !!! I love this video.. im Subscribing. its amazing what a little hard work can get you. and i would say Water is definately good fruit from all your work.
i am just camping here waiting for your next upload - greetings from singapore
we are so job less :D
true that - i had been laid off a couple of months ago and i am looking for work
WOW! awesome job!!
Awesome Job!!
love this congrats well done.
Love this project...Ill be doing the same in the near future
a big win
awesome video ! thank u for sharing all this !! I'm doing the same in Uruguay !
Good job boss
This is awesome! I need to have you come and dig some holes around my place.
What’s left on the whiteboard now? I’ll bet there’s only 100+ things left, or has the list got longer. Brilliant work.
A list like that never ends 😂
This guy has some skills. Are any schools teaching skills like this.
1 1/4" More volume... I dealt with industrial filtration for a large part of my career (both chemical and clarity {as in NTU's etc.} ) If I can help let me know, I was a "Mud Engineer" for NL Baroid Inc.[gone now], mergers etc... Then I developed sequential micron rated filtration for large volume well pumping, down to 2 microns absolute at 6 - to - 8, bbls (42gal. oilfield barrels per minute) ((also Manager of Sales and Engineering and Senior
Engineer)). Just offering...
Mike
cool thing
great
YOU ARE AMAZING ... BROTHER
love your hard work man, wish had the opportunity to be there
so the well witcher got it wrong! Proof, again, they are not worth the time.
Never have heard the term well witcher ....always knew them as dowsers
@@zeke112964 guess it depends where you live. I have only heard them as well witchers. As a well driller I have never put stock in them at all, but in troubling production areas it is always nice to have access to them. It takes heat off the driller!
love u'r videos all the time :)
It’s late, and it’s been a while. Glad to see your videos, Heath.
Hey!
The real mine craft
nice
congrats! a homestead without water, is not a homestead
Exactly!
I like this compilation vlog. Has Cedar got to enjoy the water and new hose real? ENJOY Heath
No but I have.
New Nick name lol water boy , super job ! Though ....
That's a lot of work and money to water a dog. Mine just walk down to the creek for a drink!
Wolla:)
I am so jealous. I suppose it's just the inner me telling me to get off my ass and get busy.
as a plummer you prolly know is a lot easier to restrict than to raise flow/ pressure
I didn't catch how you keep it from freezing?
Does the solar pump generate enough pressure to pump all the way up to your holding tank in spite of the back pressure from the weight of the water in the tank above? I'm curious because you only used a single line from the pump all the way to the tank and connected the same to the bottom of the tank. If yes, could you give some details on the pump?
We've dug our seep, and about to put in the culvert. Did you put a couple feet of gravel at the bottom of your well before setting your first concrete culvert ring?
One Man's Wilderness Redux
In the beginning of the video you said the well witcher found 2 good locations, one was 128' deep and one was 12 ' deep. How did he know how deep they were? I know their system easily finds underground water, but didn't know they can find how deep it is ?
How did you clean the water to make it potable?
AAA+++Bedford, Texas
Love what your doing when are u going to finish the in side of the house
very soon.
Funny how you can notice that the hydraulics leak down on the backhoe when you see it in fast motion - I hadn't noticed that before watching the videos in regular speed. In this summary you don't show some of the headaches you had to go through, but that's ok. Thx for the video. How are you coming on the concrete pour?
Hopefully first of next week.
I might have missed it, but where is your filtration system for drinkable water?
I haven't installed it yet.
Did you just make up your own tile sling?
Did you get to show Cedar. Mrs ' Red Poppy Ranch " her new water hose yet . thanks Again for the combined video of the other two
did guys get new patron people yet
She saw it on the video.
It sure has been an adventure for you to find water, i woulda tried rain collection myself. But a well is more reliable. Using pex could you run a hydroelectric genorator, whats your plans for water purification?
carbon filters.
Red Poppy Ranch hope ya don't mind all the suggestions, I've always dreamed of having enough land to do this kind of work. I think making roads would be a good way to collect rain water. Controlling the flow of water around your property is vital and I'm sure water works best when in a cycle.
How much water will this provide?
Now I have a question about your feed to your tank, why didn't you run one all the way to the tank and have it feed into it at the top of the tank so it is not fighting the back pressure of your gravity system and then have a second line for your actual house and irrigation system? Besides the cost of you're tubing and whatnot, I may be wrong with my train of thought but I think with your initial kit if you had have set in the top of your tank your system could have worked just fine with what you had but I don't know I may be wrong just my train of thought as to what I have seen on other channels and or other applications that I've messed with.
