Hello Forum Visitors,
I am finishing a project of a small water well drilling machine and would like your input on a couple of options I have in the final make.
Here are my questions of the forum:
1. If you had the choice of having the main drive head powered to 162 RPM at 600 ft lb torque or a 100 RPM head at 750 ft lb torque, which would you want and why?
2. If given a choice between a self priming mud pump able to provide flow to 196 ft of head or a need to prime mud pump able to provide flow to 320 ft of head, which would you prefer and why?
Foot note-------The cost of question one is almost neutral, the cost of the self priming pump is huge ( $1,100 ) , this may change answers?
Thanks to any and all who provide input.
