    Vacuum muck from old well

    I’d hate to spend several hundred $ on a trash pump and learn it can’t suck mud up 18 feet [emoji57].. Have to ask vertical specs I don’t have a friend at firehouse, (but I should)

    Vacuum muck from old well

    Thanks for the advice, I wondered how many pump outs I have to do. This is one reason I want to DIY, if I hired someone it’d be a one shot deal but without a thorough clean up.

    Vacuum muck from old well

    If possible I want to do my own work, sometimes it costs me more, but I like the satisfaction of doing the projects myself (don’t most of us ?)

    Vacuum muck from old well

    I’m looking for advice. Well is over 100 years old, very nicely constructed. The depth to top of muck is 14 feet, about 3-4 feet of muck. Wondering about buying a better wet vac to DIY or should I just hire a vacuum truck outfit? Thanks, Tim

    Now it's a crime to use gas trimmers in my California city just as fire season kicks off...

    If I go to town meetings I can vote. My voice is heard. If only some people vote than the laws reflect the people that got involved. Sometimes I applaud rules that limit pollution, but unaffected ppl will go too far

    Knotweed !! any success stories?

    This infested area is not smooth level ground. Mostly it's rocky, uneven, heck it's a mess. I've spent several days digging out the the root balls (rhizome) in the one area that is in accessible ground.. I want to hear success stories, I hope there are some...:rolleyes:

    (forum change) Anyone else having a problem with

    "today's post", "new posts", "alerts", "my home", "members" etc.. None of the buttons on that row work for me, except "my profile". Do I need to change something on my pc? I miss being able to see all the recent threads at the click of a button.

    Where do you keep your firewood?

    Been thinking about building a woodshed. The problem is I'm already close to max with the other necesary jobs that have to be done... and I work 5 days, so it's only 2 days a week to do it all in... Sometimes I force myself to do more than the necessary after work chores, but at my age...

    Find the poison ivy plant

    This is for the guys (or gals) that aren't sure what poison ivy looks like. For those of us that know all to well what this green scourge of stone walls (roadsides, the edge of fields, and anywhere else it grows) looks like, don't point it out too quickly. The plant is in this picture I took...

    (PC crash) lost all my Kubota L35 parts manual data

    I feel like an idiot. My laptop was acting up for a few days and I didn't take it seriously. I knew better..I was lazy. I had downloaded all the parts manuals for my L35tlb off the web and did not save it on a removable medium, it's no longer available free (at least I can't find it). :( I'm...

    No AGCO forum?

    Here's the list of AGCO's sub-brands. Too many I think. In a marketing world of brand recognition "I just bought a AGCO" will get a few, huh?'s" While "I just bought a John Deere" (or Kubota, etc) no question from anyone (well, practically anyone) You have a good question Builder, I'm just...
