@GlenoraAg I know exactly how much they cost… and when I went there to get one they said you should not be breaking that…. But we do have 6 in stock…!! We break at least one a year, we are better at welding them up now once we got the bill…

@Tomcurnow10 @CodyJHar Awesome, looks good. Guessing the circular platform is up high so the larger ring will clear the frame/hook up point..? Look forward to seeing the final product…, I better get my welder out I think…

@R_BAgriculture We have an open outflow tench we dug with excavator that runs to a salt lake. We are lucky to have that close by as a place for a water to run to.

@phil_honey @gsandral Yea have been following a bit of your work, looks very interesting. We have put about 11km of pipe in on this project so far in runs of about 500 meters each pipe. Keep up the good work, will have to get in touch for a discussion sometime soon.

@CodyJHar Target depth on install was about 600mm. We have had approx 220mm since it was laid, had had about 115mm before we seen any water start to flow out of pipes.

@LiddellClaying At 18 meters at this stage. From research this may not be close enough in heavy clay soils. Prepared I may have to go closer in future. Still very much learning as we go

@niels_corfield No not specifically. Large open outflow trench on lower side of paddock approx 2m deep that pipes drain to does allow a bit of surface water to drain into in spots.

@ScottYoung6311 Pretty much full grid, 18meter spacing running parallel to open outflow trench across paddock. Taking into account very flat paddock with main elevation change in billabongs. Elevations maps were taking into account on drainage plan
