Have any of y’all ever done a self drilling shallow well at your camp. I’ve seen some videos and seems pretty simple. Just curious if it’s worth it or not.

I haven't done it myself, but I had a buddy drill one in his backyard for watering his garden. I made him a fishtail bit
out of pipe and he did it all by hand. Worked for his garden but you couldn't drink it.

That's pretty cool. If you don't have access to city water or power on a rural tract, that would be worth bringing in a water tank and gas powered pump to try to do yourself. I wouldn't drink it, but would be good for washing up. We have a primitive camping area at our hunting lease. I might bring this up to the board to try on a work day next year.
