Had no idea the pits would be that large, guess for speed of dump it’s good but would have a maintenance concern. Do the augers have replaceable sleeves or something? How would you replace if a hole is worn in one, have to break up concrete? Noticed Doug was unwittingly on camera a few times! Lol!
The augers do have replaceable sleeves, and most everything is able to be worked on/replaced above ground. We have a smaller Lowry Pit on the other side and have replaced almost every part over 20 years and havn't had to bust the concrete yet!
Damn so Backwards on construction. Should have dug deeper for a sump pump. Then I would have put in 3/4 Gravel Compacted it for 12". Then framed for concrete. You will have problems for years to come. Now go Grab me a Beer Red Neck!
Nice job of showing details of how this project is done, very helpful.

Wow, what a hole . How will you keep this hole dry ?
We put tile in the bottom and a sump pump with a tile to take the water away.
Always put plastic under any concrete pour!
