Dug a well late last fall.Bout like B&D said.One hour with the excavator.Did this one a little different,used a four foot diameter plastic corrugated double wall pipe.Bought the lid that's made to fit it.
Our soil here is about 9 inches topsoil.Next about 3 feet of yellow clay.Then about 5 feet course water sand gravel.Then solid blue clay all the way down.Surface water trickles down can't penetrate blue clay,held in water sand gravel.Makes for a good well.
