Well Pump Replacement - Easy, with just one ER visit
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Replacing a well pump is not all that hard. Mine died during a freeze. The original was installed in 1979 and was made out of galvanized pipes instead of poly tubing (as it is mostly done today). In this video, I pull the old pipes, cut myself badly, get stitched back up at the ER, and finish the job the following day.

    Keep in mind the Chinese steal and copy almost everything they make. They will buy a mini excavator from the west and just reverse engineerin it. They spend zero money for research and development especially with military technology. This is a perfect example of how far advanced we are in the west. I heard a speech given by retired admiral Mike Mullins he said if we went to war with China we would sink there entire navy in a matter of weeks

    Never buy a black mini digger,car,truck, or anything you will sit in on a hot summer day! You will become overheated! Black absorbs heat,white repels heat.and colours that go from dark to light, very the heat disipation. In your previous video,you mentioned different costs,but not the total costs inclusive of all the extras! What are the brokers fees 6%? In the hottest days you can cook an egg on any metal surface is painted black! I did this on my mother's cars black roof,it cooked!

    I think that a lot of the import charges are USA specific..the USA does put heavy tariffs on some Chinese imports to protect their domestic market…but a lot of the smaller charges shown by the import agent were simply scamming. If you were a commercial groundwork’s contractor, where your machines are use all day, every day, by operators who don’t own the equipment..and don’t give a stuff..then buy a proprietary brand. If however you are a private buyer who wants a machine for your own use on your own property, going Chinese makes a lot of sense.. in Europe, a proprietary brand 2 ton excavator will cost a minimum of €30k….A Chinese 2 ton machine will cost less than half that ..imported. Also, the accessories, additional buckets, augers etc are a fraction of the price..So for non commercial, private use..the are fine..
