Introduction: Digging Your Own Working Garden or Homestead Well.

About: I am a teacher who enjoys environmentally responsible woodworking. Most evenings will find me in the shop working with my now 8 year old son Shay who is both my greatest helper and biggest fan.
Nothing is quite as basic for your homestead or your garden than the need for water.  This simple resource was essential for survival on the farm.  Not much has changed.  Despite having water piped to most of our homes the tools and skills necessary to get at the water beneath your feet are still important.  Wether you are adding a pump for backup purposes, life off the grid or just  a functional bit of elegance to your home this instructable will help you get there.
