Sketchy can mean many different things and has no direct translation. You have to use a synonym with less meanings for the current situation, like risky, and translate that: "riskabelt". Or maybe "prekärt" (precarious), or "våghalsigt" (daring).
how about "all of the above"? It will be interesting to see if the weight of the stacked concrete caissons will slowly sink into the sand causing the well to get deeper over time. The density of the concrete versus that of the saturated sand is a calculated variable. The number of concrete sections above the surrounding water table height times the weight per section will approximate the amount of force. Without a "floor" in the first concrete tube to prevent sand from extruding into the caisson internal volume there is a possibility you might have to add one or some additional pilings later on should the lower sections "drift" out of place due to uneven settling. The weight of the cement castings seemed to be preferentially heavier towards the flattened side? @@madmodders

Absolutely love how you put these videos together, the choice of music is fantastic and your timelapse segments are trimmed short enough that it's not boring, but long enough to get a good look at what's going on. The more videos I watch the more I want to visit Sweden, it looks like such a beautiful part of the world. Hope you gave your machine a good wash when you got home!
In North America when we dig a well we always backfill the the well crocks with clear stone to assist the seams of water to be able to get to the crocks…if you backfill with the same material you dug out then you clog off the seams…plus the clear stone expands the capacity of the well so that you aren’t just drawing from what ever the crocks can hold…those 8-10 ton machines can do a lot of work but it was definitely a bit small for this job…in any case you got through it and the clients now have water!!
IN Canada - we had a concrete casing well installed , we have only about 15 feet of sandy soil , than you hit about 75 feet of clay ( in our area is perched water table ) the top half of the concrete ring were sealed with bentonite clay , and the a well tag was placed and the well was registered . it was done all done by a boring drilling rig
Last well that I had anything to do with, was hand dug down to about 30 ft, had a shallow well pump on it and pumping as fast as it would go, that's as deep as we could get keeping up with the water! The top about 8 ft was encased with concrete and a concrete top put on it.
he could have used the same stones(culverts) by laying it horizontally. That would have helped increased his well capacity. Or just fill that massive hole with the same material with one vertical culverts. All these would have increased the well capacity.
This is common practice in these ground conditions. Textile filter and gravel on top. If you put gravel first, water flow and mud underneath will make it shift and collapse over time. This is a very stable construction in soft ground.
Ancient Romans would have filled the entire pit with crushed stone as well, and seal the shaft except for holes at the bottom. That way only water from the bottom of the pit enters the shaft, which is clean and safe to drink from spending so much time percolating down underground in an anaerobic environment.
I love the production quality of your videos. Those drone shots and music choices and the way you keep the sound while the time lapses. I like it. Keep up the good work and stay safe!
I've never seen a trailer like this before that delivered the shovel. I've used and hauled a lot of heavy equipment in my life ,but that's the slickest trailer I've ever seen. Just goes to show you that you can learn something every day.

@mikekemsley1531 it would help if small stones or rocks came loose though, in the uk, we normally use trench shoreing on any excavations more than 5' deep.
Great video! Had me on the edge of my seat a few times wondering if you and the excavator were going to be eaten by the hole. Thanks for the explainer at the end, I think most folks here in the states would have just redrilled the existing drill hole deeper.
I like your style Mattias, getting the job done with the equipment you have and not giving up when things get difficult. You are right about people commenting on the risks sounding like all the safety warnings at the front of a manual! Keep up the great work.
What a wonderful project, that you took us on! A time or two, I really thought you were going to be swallowed up by that sand! The explanation at the end was a nice touch as well as the demonstration of the water! Another excellent video….. sure wish you made more of them! ❤
I did this literally over the past 3 days. Except it wasn't a well, it was for a 10' by 6' sewer lift station. Had to use a tiny cat 305 because the rental company misunderstood how deep of a dig depth I needed lol. Super sketch being at a 40 degree angle 5' deep into a ramp you just dug yourself and is falling in. Respect mate.
low producing drilled well are often saved in my parts because they often cost $15-25k to drill. A small pump is placed in the well with special limit switches and timers so the pump does run dry and doesn't start and stop too often. then this water is pumped into storage tanks to have a buffer.
If you get a chance to do an operator apprenticeship absolutely jump at the chance . I did it at 19 and have been at it 15 years now I love my job and running machines
at least they can rest assured that there was no alcohol involved in sinking the well. that is quite a difference to many other countries, I see people drinking and working on building every few weeks at building sites in Switzerland..

I was working on a well with my brother the same way like you. But we had a big advantage of having very stable soil and dig into the hill and then down. I regret , that we did not made an video about it . Last 1,5 meters digged it out manually with jackhammer and shovel. We put a concrete rings down with bobcat and chain hoist.
You took a very big chance of being buried alive in that narrow unsupported deep sandy trench, it could easily have collapsed on top of you. I drove a jcb 3 for several years and would have sloped the top half of both sides to reduce the chances of a collapse. I wouldn’t dig a trench like that if someone had to get into it!😮😢

Stunning video, BZ Buddy ('Bootneck' jargon for Bloody Good Effort). The drone shot looking down through light cloud was magnificent. Plus some real edge of the seat action. Keep 'em coming!!
Thank you for the video, it's always nice to see how our western neighbours get things done. I'm not overly enthusiastic about formal safety regulations, I trust more in using common sense. This time I must say that the collapsing pit with the liquified sand got a bit scary. I guess you know how your ground behaves though. Overall I'm just mightily jealous of your sandy soil. The sticky clay here in south of Finland really sucks. Unless it's bone-dry in the middle of summer it sticks everywhere (including buckets) and makes a horrible mess. Keep up the good work and stay safe!

Fantastic video. Very interesting and really well done. The amount of work you and your team did to provide reliable source of water is commendable. At one point it looked like the excavator was going to be swallowed up as the side of the hole was caving in. Always interesting to watch true professionals at work.
Awesome vid! I never seen anyone digging a well that way and it's wesome ;) Thanks for taking us with you - me and my 3y old son were watching you and enjoying the full vid! I am glad you make it 1h long and not like 15mins or something like that.
If you want to go even deeper with it you can rent a trash pump and start storing some water. Once you have a good amount of water stored up you stack a couple more concrete casings on top of what’s already there and maybe even some weights. Then you start stirring up the mud slurry and you then pump it out. Do this a few times and the casing will slowly start to drop into the ground. It doesn’t work on a older established well. But one you have just loosely dug like this and hasn’t had the chance to really set up like concrete around the casings. It will work. There are companies that sink pilings the same way. Unfortunately I’m seeing now that you didn’t stack them all in line. So there’s no way it would work. Oh well. Lol.
You definitely need to make more content , your living in a wonderful place and with enough video’s combing out your channel will pay for itself eventually, it’s great content, keep it up, regards Andy Perth Australia.
I love that trailering! Wish I still had the health to do stuff like that! I think I would offer it for people in need! I don't need the money really. Seems a shame that people like me have the time but not the strength , and the people with the strength don't have the time!
Greetings from Estonia! Yeah, it's scary to watch that excavator hanging on the edge. The landslide is easy to come there and there is no turn back. Big risk, but seems that you have your balls.😀 Cheers!
The last guy I saw use these as well casings pumped the water away while he was digging and leveled the bottom well. In that case you could have layed the fabric and set the casing on top, hindsight 20/20
Where in the world are you? Btw i’d dig a waterwell for some 20 yrs ago. About 8 meters deep. I used a tractor backhoe. The last two meters i had a Atlas 12 tonner to dig out. I used 1 meter wide concrete rings. It works PERFECT. GOOD JOB of you guys. Always a pleasure see working men now this days when everything is pure madness.

Coincidence. I dug a well at my house 45 years ago using stacked cement pipes - approximately 36 inches across and about 9 feet deep, using a John Deere 350 backhoe. The only problem - for about 2 to 3 weeks in September the well went almost dry. I have since discovered a low cost workaround for that. Using a sump pump ( assuming less than 30 feet depth) have the pump slowly add a few gallons an hour - or about 72 gallons a day to fill a couple of 300 gallon large plastic storage tanks, placed in the basement, which are relatively low cost. Then attach a standard 50 psi pump to the outlet of the water tanks for supplying the building. Also i would recommend placing crushed stone around the exterior of the pipe, while using weed control vinyl clothe around the interior walls of the dug hole so as to minimize sand getting into the well. Otherwise i applaud a job well done and having put many hours on a back hoe i know what it feels like when the backhoe starts to slide towards the hole you're digging.
Well hell if you were super rich you could have bought the biggest excavator and dug the well in 2 scoops. Lol. Thank you for your videos. I do enjoy watching them.
looks like an excellent well. If you have several thousand litres of water then you do not have a problem. THe other aspect of this is that likely you will not have frost stop water. Excellent work. My Grandfather was a farmer and like all farmers they know were the water is best. So when the government wantedf to mine gravel for roads he let them do so in the location of the freshwater spring on his farm. This ended up being huge and when it exceeded the capacity of the pumps it made the farm drought proof. The dam is still their and is visible on google earth easily. lol. people have water skied in it.
@@EthanPDobbins Very typical of Farmers. Especially old farmers who never wanted the government having anything to do with their farm in the first place. I am fairly sure it was 3 million cubic metres of gravel removed. Dam is 80 ft deep in places when at full after cyclones come through etc. Has Barramundi over 80cm long in it as well.

Looks pretty fun the only thing that appeared not good to me is I didn't see the guy going into the well carrying a gas monitor, it's a quick way to die without knowing why.
Puh, got me really edgy as I was nervous the excavator would tilt into the whole. So very great to see your vids. Thanks a bunch and look forward to next!
great video - if you've got enough water in the old well you could set it up for fire protection that way they have a fighting chance of saving the properties if anything was to happen.

The only problem - for about 2 to 3 weeks in September the well went almost dry. I have since discovered a low cost workaround for that. Using a sump pump ( assuming less than 30 feet depth) have the pump slowly add a few gallons an hour - or about 72 gallons a day to fill a couple of 300 gallon large plastic storage tanks, placed in the basement, which are relatively low cost. Then attach a standard 50 psi pump to the outlet of the water tanks for supplying the building. Also i would recommend placing crushed stone around the exterior of the pipe, while using weed control vinyl clothe around the interior walls of the dug hole so as to minimize sand getting into the well. Otherwise i applaud a job well done and having put many hours on a back hoe i know what it feels like when the backhoe starts to slide towards the hole you're digging.
Haha, både fantastiska och hemska markförhållanden där!! Älskar hur ni gav upp på den där ringen och bara grävde ner den som att inget hänt! 😅❤
Den fick bli fyllning, vi hade några i reserv
Well hell if you were super rich you could have bought the biggest excavator and dug the well in 2 scoops. Lol. Thank you for your videos. I do enjoy watching them.
The beauty of where you live is staggering. I love seeing your videos and all of the beauty of your country. Your a great heavy equipment operator.
looks like an excellent well. If you have several thousand litres of water then you do not have a problem. THe other aspect of this is that likely you will not have frost stop water. Excellent work.
My Grandfather was a farmer and like all farmers they know were the water is best. So when the government wantedf to mine gravel for roads he let them do so in the location of the freshwater spring on his farm. This ended up being huge and when it exceeded the capacity of the pumps it made the farm drought proof. The dam is still their and is visible on google earth easily. lol. people have water skied in it.
Scamming the government for free labor, your grandpa sounds like an absolute genius.
@@EthanPDobbins Very typical of Farmers. Especially old farmers who never wanted the government having anything to do with their farm in the first place. I am fairly sure it was 3 million cubic metres of gravel removed. Dam is 80 ft deep in places when at full after cyclones come through etc. Has Barramundi over 80cm long in it as well.
This is why we respect the wise old man.
Pozdrowienia z Polski. Oglądam na bieżąco i ciągle mi mało. Myślę że wszyscy chcemy więcej filmów. Dobra robota
Tak, masz rację. Powinni podkopywać kręgi, aby siadały coraz niżej. ranty uszczelnić glinką itd itd. Ale mimo wszystko fajnie się ogląda. Daj im Boże zdrowie. I taka malutka prośba. Bez wulgaryzmów. Język powinniśmy czynić szlachetnym a te wulgaryzmy sprowadzają go do rynsztoka. Dziękuję. @@TylerDurden0331
Perfectly organized work
Sweden is fascinating. I spent a lot of time in our High Sierra mountains, skiing, and love mountains.
Great video! Love the content, production, drone shots and music! You're basically the Andrew Camarata of Sweden.
The JCB is such a beautiful machine inside and out. I also like how you keep your machines so clean. Lastly a great video but scary LOL
Really interesting, so different from what I've come to understand from boreholes etc...
Nice one, thanks again 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Good stuff. I wish there were more of these to watch. Well done Mattias. God bless.
Good stuff? Idiocy personified more like.
❤The ending is just great
Whenever I watch a video, I think I solve a lot of things in difficult situations. It's Superman💪👍👍👍
I would have put down and compressed some gravel below the first ring to give it a bit stability and as a filter for the water
Looks pretty fun the only thing that appeared not good to me is I didn't see the guy going into the well carrying a gas monitor, it's a quick way to die without knowing why.
The sign that I've reached old age: "Man, those kids look like they're having fun!"
Amazing how deep the frost line is. I’m on eastern Ontario, Canada and it does get pretty darn cold here but our frost line is only about 4’.
That was a bit like watching a suspense movie. I kept thinking you were going to slide in and the walls cave down on top!
Puh, got me really edgy as I was nervous the excavator would tilt into the whole.
So very great to see your vids. Thanks a bunch and look forward to next!
Super film igjen. Perfekt søndags underholdning. Venter spent på neste 😊
great video - if you've got enough water in the old well you could set it up for fire protection that way they have a fighting chance of saving the properties if anything was to happen.
I really enjoy everything you do, I finished all your videos Keep it up, you're amazing ❤
Thanks!
nice little Takeuchi excavator ,,didnt know they made one,,,,they sure make a nice skid steer as well.
