<b>The best way to survive a power outage or any emergency is to prepare before it occurs. You need shelter, heat for cooking and warmth, water, food medicines, medical supplies, hygiene items and other things. These will not be easy to get in a power outage or emergency. Build a pump now while you can still get the parts. After a power outage will be too late.</b> Thanks for everything guys.

Sure every post I have mentions goat blood...How do you think we get plasma tv's?

Organic needs are being assaulted. I'm not amused by this & encourage all to grow heirloom seed for themselves.

regardless, here's how to construct a well bucket (bullet or torpedo bucket) for small diameter cased wells. Just in case your well's too deep for a hand pump...

_______________________________________________________________
How to make a well bucket

1 ea. 3" PVC pipe 36" long $1.93
1 ea. PVC couple 1-1/2" x 3" (reducer) 2.79
1 seat, disk screw type (toilet tank) 2.89
1-1/2" x 1/8" x 48" flat bar stock 2.19
1 ea. 24" heavy wire (for handle)
1 ea. 6" piece valley tin (for seat disk bar guide) .00
Total $9.80

Drill a 1/8" hole in the bar stock, 1/2" from one end, and put a 90° bend 1" from that end.

Make 90° bends 3" and 1" from the other end to form a handle.

Screw seat disk to handle.

In PVC pipe, drill 1/4" hole 1" from end, all the way through, for the wire handle. Bend the valley tin to fit inside the PVC and drill holes to match those in the PVC. Make a slot about 1/4" x 3/4" in middle of valley tin to slide over handle to hold it in place.

Assemble all the pieces and glue the reducer to the bottom of the PVC. Be sure the disk seat moves up and down.

Use your imagination and whatever you have laying around and I’m sure you can improve on this.

the meek are ready...

don,t forget a water filter system if power is down or well gets crimped by eq,s. berkey or aquarain. clean water is the biggest essential. not too many people get that.
