    Outstanding video! How do you determine how much bentonite to use? How long will the seal last?

    I wonder if this was applied & mixed by excavator then mixing would bee more efficient.

    I remember picking up Railroad cars out of Belfouche SD.
    An old head conductor said to me years ago. Be careful when you go to the Gorilla factory. I was confused. The engineer turned and said. The bentonite is all over the rail, very slippery and it sticks to everything like gorilla shit.
    I waited and before I could ask about the gorilla. LMAO.
    But it does get nasty after a thaw or rain.
    I am considering using a bag for my hogs water hole. Suddenly the clay got really thirsty.

    I live in east Texas and about to dig my own pond. Where can I purchase big bags of bentonite?

      If I remember right it was $19,000 for 40,000 pounds. That included trucking.

      It was actually put in to keep water from coming up. This is going to be a dry pond. Thanks for watching
