Great help and very much appreciated mate. well done.
Well... My tire was significantly thicker and harder than yours, I had worked on it for 30 minutes getting madder by the minute : ( I watched your video and Gosh Dangit if it didn't work!!! Thanks you so much. I almost chucked it into the canal!!! LOL KIP Knowledge Is Power! and you gave me some tonight.
I'm glad it helped you! Thanks for letting me know.
@@dawmlw :)
Your the man.. thank you my friend
You are certainly welcome.
Hey Petey😂, 55 feet, wow! How long did it take to drill it???
two days.
I drilled to 26 ft and did not get water. Shall i go further more? I saw online that shallow well pump cannot draw water no more than 25 ft.. Or shall i do other place for water? I am planning to use trash pump to drill well. Please suggest. I live in Tampa Florida ....Thank you
Ask your neighbors about the groundwater level. Also, are you near water. Water underground often approximates the water level above ground. i.e. around a lake, ground water levels will be high.
@dawmlw i am 5 ft away from pond. This is new community. What do you suggest to drill upto?
@@urvesh0607 Wow!!! That is amazing you don't have standing water in that hole. Either dig deeper or move over like 10 feet and try again. As you were drilling, were you in sand at all? Did you, by any chance, use bentonite while you were drilling? That would seal the hole sides. If you are using bentonite, stop when you get to the depth you want to set the screen. You don't want that part of the hole to be sealed.
@dawmlw @dawmlw Hi Yes I did hit find sand and at one point I did felt something I hit but when I used Vevor shallow pump and added check value at bottom it runs for a min (starting to throw muddy water) and then it stops. So today I removed 28 ft casing pipe and inserted just 10 feet pipe. Ill check tomorrow. Surprisly every hour I do see water in hole but when I use vevor shallow pump it does not pump it. I have a doubt that may be issue in this pump. And I have a pont some 10 ft away so I should hit with water. I do not use any Bentonite.
It sounds to me like you did not prime the pump. When you start: the pump must be full of water and the wellpipe, both above and below the checkvalve, must be full of water. When you look into the well pipe, can you see water? Can you drop a string down and hit water in the pipe?
Excellent, thanks so much. I wound up using vice grips instead of clamps but your video confirmed that the way I was doing it would actually work.
Great!!! Thanks for letting me know.
What was he dimensions on the mud pit?
Two feet wide, four feet long, one foot deep.
@dawmlw thank you, I had just cable tooled down 26 feet, but my bailer was not heavy enough to push deeper and draw out the water sands....I'm about 4 foot into the water table; the outer casing is now pulled...I was thinking I was deep enough but the recharge rate is about 1/2 gallon a minute...in a 3 inch screened pipe. I want to mud pump a 2 inch screened casing with a wash down valve on the end of it a further 20 feet.....the wash down valve ( sand shark) has a one inch thread to supply he water, so it's a 1 inch water supply line inside 2 inch diameter well screen and casing going inside a 3 inch outer casing a further 20 feet down...if I can wash down another 20 feet I will unscrew the 1 inch line from inside the 2 inch casing and hopefully I will be there!
@@gavinhodge2290 It sounds like you are close. Good luck!
Sir can you please mention, of the tyre size?
4.50 X 3.10 - 4
Here we are in 2024 still getting help from this video! Great idea - i ended up using small pair of vice grips instead of C-Clamps but it worked just the same. Thanks for the idea to help me get the old snowblower tire back on the rims - I decided to run tubes instead of reseating the seal on flat tires every winter before the big snow.
You are certainly welcome!
Man o man. You saved me!!
glad to be of service!
My neighborhood is going to hell. I'll soon need 1/2" bizalloy.
Norm Abrams has 100,000 dollhairs wood shop.
I watched all, great videos neighbor. I see you are in Baldwin County Al ( South Baldwin Hospital) I am in Robertsdale Al and planning on putting down a new well, 4". Any chance you can come talk to me?
i did it also with screwdrivers but when i was ready my inner tube was leak because of the screwdiver.
ouch!
i drilled a shallow well using a deep rock and with about 90 pounds on a 4 inch drag bit, it took be over 90 minutes to cut through 3 feet of clay, with a mud 125 feet of head. some clays depending on where you are, will be more than your method will handle.
Absolutely, correct.
11 years later , how is the well serving you today ?
I already had a well when I drilled that one for demonstrative purposes. I just filled it in after the video. Sorry.
@@dawmlw I have a 30 foot well that never runs dry , it has a metal casing that’s causing a lot of rust issues . A company quoted me $6700 to drill another 30 footer . I am definitely giving your method a try . Thanks for posting .
@@ctb2814 What kind of soil do you have? As long as it isn't rock, this is worth a try. It works "well" in sandy and clay conditions.
@@dawmlwshoot! I guess Pennsylvania is out of the question
@@TheRealIndridCold Yes. Sorry.
Thank you so much , the frustration is about to end thanks to you! Bravo!
You are welcome! Good luck!
Very smart! Thank you!
You are welcome!
Do you also develop the well to remove the gelling agents in the side walls of the well? How do you do this if you do? Thanks, i enjoyed your work. This is a skill worth having.
when you get down to where you are going to set the screen, quit using the gelling agent for the last few feet.
Same as the previous comment. Brilliant!
Thanks!!!
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. ❤
[blush] just kidding! Thanks for watching!
I have never found any topsoil that didn’t have any debris in it that’s why I bought a Landzie Compost Spreader so it keeps the debris inside the spreader drum then you just throw the debris out.
Smart!!
Thank you! Didn't have small c-clamps, but vice gripes worked.
Good for you!
Which type of mud pump is recommended to use?
one with a cast iron impeller.
13 years later and you saved my ass! I was about to throw a fit trying to get this tire back on and then I saw your video and got it on in less than a minute!
I'm glad it helped you!
I am currently jetting down a well. I work on it basically every day and I get a few inches a day. Currently at 29 feet. I am currently at a layer of very course sand. Whenever I jet down water my cuttings are small pebbles, but I am getting no mud or sand back. Just pebbles. Would this be when to add clay? How am I moving pebbles but not sand?? I think I might give the well project a break for a day or 2 because I might actually be at water? Gonna wait and see ro make sure my water level isn't artificially high. I've literally pumped 1000 gallons of water down. We'll see. But yeah. Add clay or no?
Assuming you are not within a few feet of where you will ultimately want to set your screen, this is exactly where you should bentonite. Mix it extremely well before you put it in the hole
@dawmlw thank you for your timely response. I'll consider it. Ultimately I know that my static water level is 40-50 feet. This well kinda consumed my life for the past 2 weeks and I'm trying to figure out how to make it all end lol. Do you know anything about using compressed air to pump up water? I'm thinking that if I have my 30 foot of 2 inch pipe in the ground, I should be able to pound down 1 or 1 1/4 pipe the rest of the way and use compressed air to pump up the water. But I think my air hose needs to be a certain amount below the static water level?
@@flecktards3126 Try to stay patient. Do you have any neighbors with wells? How far down are they? Wherever water is the level tends to be the same in the area.
@dawmlw everyone in my area has a 100 foot well, but closest neighbor with the same elevation as I do has a static water level at 40 feet.
I’ve been wrestling with this wheel all day the I come across this video. I’m so appreciative of you taking the time to make this video. Worked like a charm.
How much bentonite would you use in an sanding borehole 30 ft deep
about two cups, maybe three. A little goes a long ways.. You have to thoroughly mix it before you put it in.
Thanks for responding quickly
Great video! Thanks for sharing it. How far apart were these holes?
Your'e welcome!
Thank you for the video it will help me alot
Thanks!
Fabulous. like others, my use of profanity was stretched to no avail. after finding this - magic. I did not have small C-clamps, but I did have 2 vise-grip pliers. Worked like a champ. Than you so much for this advice.
Great! I'm glad it helped you!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ This really helped. However I had a slightly larger wheel and very stiff rubber tires. The C clamps helped, but the tires were too stiff to slide over the last of the rim. So I put it on the floor, and wearing athletic shoes, stood on that final section, using the backs of both heels to force it over the rim and it worked, it slid right over the rim! This was for the older 13" Gorilla Cart wheels that fit on the 600 lb capacity model, still going strong thanks to your advice!
Good thinking!
Where did you get the drill head to dig with?
a local welding shop made it for me.
@@dawmlw thank you
Spot on was getting to where you got, thanks
Sir, I had been working on the same tire as you have here for over an hour. Then I found your video, and got it on in 30 seconds THANK YOU SO MUCH. Even a 13 year old video is worth its weight in gold!
Thanks!
same here brother! wow, I'm actually excited to go do it now
@@hj-clone Super ! I'm glad it helped you!
Intensely appreciated. One variation which may be handy for people lacking small C Clamps is to use the smallest size vise grips. Works like a charm and they go on and off so easily. Curved jaws work best, but flats function well too.
Thanks!
Fantastic tip and very successful outcome for my project (fertilizer spreader). Thank you very much. (This must be getting close to one of the longest lived, highly successful videos on UA-cam. I wish there was some way you could collect all the beers you were promised.)
Ha! that's funny!

Magic! 🪄 After an hour using every tire tool imaginable and Dawn soap your technique did the job in 2 minutes!!!
great!!! I'm glad it helped you!
Discovered another option. After removing the wheel from the axel and replacing the inner tube, I held the tire in front of a lot small propane heater to heat up the tire just a bit. Then I put the wheel on my work bench and pushed down the tire, putting all of my weight on the tire. It popped back on the rim with a bit of coaxing. Thanks for the video!
Nice!
Nice! I love it when a simple solution comes to the rescue. Those little tires are the worst and I have a feeling I'm going to greatly benefit from this video.
well, yeah, the first tire took me 3 hrs, and would never have gotten it done without this video, second tire took 16 minutes to take off, put on, and air up.
This was brilliant. I watched three different videos and this is the one that worked perfectly.
thanks!
Worked like a charm! Great Video! If it worked on my tire, it will work on yours.
Thanks!
Guess I hv to create make my own drilling bit? Where can I get prints or drawings to build one
sorry, I just winged it. I made a wooden version and took it to a welder and said, "Make me one of these."
why 2 water inlets? why not `?
You need all the water flow you can get. Five would not be too many.
@dawmlw thanks. So then an IBC 250 gallon tote of water and a gas water pump would better for better flow?
Yes, absolutely. @@jimsamples7069
I should point out that 250 gallons is not going to be enough but you are on the right trace. More water flow equals better "drilling." @@jimsamples7069
@@dawmlw yea thinking I'll need to connect a few of them as well as have the 3/4 inch garden hose trying to keep em full..
You sir are a genius!!!! It worked and THANK YOU.
{blush} Thanks! I'm glad it helped you!
Hand held grinder. Not a 3600 RPM bench grinder. Painful to watch what people do.
The clamps were key to success. I tried using brute force and multiple levers without success. With the clamps I doubt it took 5 minutes to finish mounting the tire and filling with air. Thank you so much for posting.
You are certainly welcome.
Thanks! FYI I use vice grips in place of c-clamps. Then I pried with the handles of flat adjustable wrenches.
super! I'm glad it helped you. I have heard from quite a few people that they used vice grips.
