First 15 feet of borehole in about 45 minutes with the help of a Hydra-Drill
Today the first borehole began for the ground loop. The Hydra-Drill fixture had some bent poles which stopped the drill from desending past halfway. After some odd size 1 3/8 O.D. pipes were acquired we were back at it. The drill made for a quick 15 feet, where it started jerking and bouncing. Had to stop for family issues.
The material that ended up in the first mud pit was mostly sandy material as pictured on the right. The material on the left of the picture is the material from the mud pit when it was made.
Tomorrow maybe if we start earlier, we can dig a little deeper.
Where do you get the fitting that goes on the bottom of the poly pipe at the bottom of the borehole?
