How far down did you need to go to get water?

We are down 20' I hit water at about 6'

How is the pressure and I'm thinking the water is for watering plants and such?

6 feet ?! That's a high water table. Are you having any issues with water in your basement?

I found it to work best if I plow up a spot and scoop the dirt off as i go

I had a layer of sod, a layer if stone, a small layer of sand, a 2 foot thick layer of muck and then the clay layer. nothing I wanted to put a floor on so all of it came out and sand is going back in.

That's awesome! I can't wait to see the progress on the new barn!

 

[SHARPMACHINE]

Makes perfect sense to plow then remove. Much easier on the equipment. You definitely get a lot of shit done.

 

[aber61]

How far down did you need to go to get to the clay layer?

 

[roll-bar Bob]

Yes with the plow I can work twice as fast and see the different layers I am working through.
