Water Well

Hello my name is Phoenix and this is my 3rd instructable I've ever made. I started this one by going to the store and buying somematerials.

Starting the Build

First I made a small square out of 4 pop-sticks.

Kinda forgot to take pictures so fast forward about 20 minutes. I added 2 support beams that would hold up the area for the rope to connect to the well.

Cutting the Plastic

I couldn't find any scissors in my whole house so i heated up a fork and sliced it with that instead.

The Collection

After I finished cutting the plastic I put a string through it and that was going to be my collection system for the well.

DRILLLLLL!!!!!!

I drilled a whole through the top piece of the well that holds the string that connects to the collection system so the water can be pulled back up.

The Stopper

I made this stopper thing so that if I ever dropped the string that it wouldn't fall all of the way through.

Finished

After all of these steps I finished the project and had a blast doing so.
