Default Find the water and build a well

Hi all,

I am wondering if someone builds a well himself.
I would like to know what is the process to know where the water is
underground (there is some device?) and if a well could be build with
some samples tools.
Could you come with more details about this process?
The company to build a well in my area is very expensive and the water
depth is around 2 meters.

Thank you,
Cristian

If the water is found in sand, consider a "well point". There are "driven"
points which are hammered in
http://weather.nmsu.edu/hydrology/wellpoint2.htm, and PVC points which can
be installed using water pressure. Call Brady
http://www.bradyproducts.com/products.htm#pvc and ask them for installation
instructions + see http://www.bradyproducts.com/faq.htm.
