Great video! However, I Recommend outlining your work area with 8' white tip t-post and showing your before and after water measurements. Your organization's transparency is key when selling your services.
Hello @w.carter5908, thanks for your insight. We simply do the work that we are hired to do. We never add additional services unless our client request us to do so.
@LakeHickoryScuba I'm grateful for your feedback; however, I was trying to obtain a better understanding on "how much volume of sediment did the 3 inch trash pump move?" Whould you happen the remember the volume of sediment moved per hour? I have a similar upcoming project.
Hello @w.carter5908, truthfully, we don’t know. The golf course’s intake system routinely gets covered up with sand. Our goal is to clear the sand to where they have several feet of clearance.
Yeah that Delta P definitely one of those poo in your your pants moment couple years back I had an employee it had turbo intake grate off of an 8 V 92 Detroit for inspection got his hand a little too close broke every one of his fingers......... Single stage 90 mm Turbo it full spool makes 27.5 of hgv or real close to absolute vacuum..... On a side note mares is going to have to redesign there wear guarantee lol your suit looks like mine after trying to prove a point LOL
Thanks for the follow up video. Also appreciate your words of caution to all viewers to seek proper training before attempting a DIY project as such. As a side note watching your work under water reminds me of the daunting task of pressure washing my concrete driveway, or blowing leaves out of my yard labor intensive inch by inch type of work. However the creek keeps back filling your efforts 😬
That pump can't handle anything more than 15% sand mixture. you need a diaghragm pump for jobs like this or at least use an agitator with a 1 inch sprinkler head
The required CMF (38) for most diaphragm pumps is too extreme for that kind of environment. However, I'm interested to hear, what agitator with sprinkler would you recommend.
You should never use a pump like that without a strainer on the suction end. I have a 3" hose with a permanent indentation because a rock got inside the hose with the previous owner.
@@LakeHickoryScuba Thank you for the reply. Does this mean that somewhere downstream the water has gotten shallower? Not implying anything negative. Just trying to understand if I do the same on my private property and choose to pump the output to the side (on dry land), would I end up with mounds of dirt? Thank you again
Hello marsogreen2411, this particular site is creek fed, thus, there will always be a constant stream of water coming in. If you are dredging sand and dirt out of the water onto dry ground, then yes it will accumulate on land. The reason we dredge this site is so that the water pump will remain above the bottom of the creek, and allow the irragation system to constantly pump water.
With the Bagermaster suction nozzle you have made this work faster and easier
Hello Bagermaster Club, thank you for sharing this with us.
@@LakeHickoryScuba happy to share information
Very interesting task, and am also doing dredging as well and interested watching
Stay safe @user-qq6ut4jv5k. If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask.

Those are working men there. That’s tough work
Thanks chris devito.
Will this work for Muck in a lake???
Hello @judymiller3296, it sure will.
What kind of pump were you using
Hello surviving life, this was a rental pump, so to be honest I don't recall the manufacture. The one that we use on our salvage videos is a Predator.

I tend to be rough on wetsuits. They get more abuse than any other piece of gear I own.
Did l see a dive computer on one of you're divers?
Its possible Carl Norris.

That is the issue the golf course will continue to have. No matter how much we pull out, it will still fill right back up.

Hello Katelyn Ellis. The pump system used during this video was supplied by the client, not Lake Hickory Scuba.

@@w.carter5908 I don’t even remember commenting this 😭🤣 my husband most of been on my account back then
What was your training? The school of trial and error?
Hello @JamesStenchmeyer-uj8rd, that is a strong possibility.
You should never use a pump like that without a strainer on the suction end. I have a 3" hose with a permanent indentation because a rock got inside the hose with the previous owner.
Sometimes we have too.
You are clueless
Possibly Larry St. Claire, possibly.
😂🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️😂
Glad you liked the video @dannyguy1170.
why did i watch this
We unfortunately can't answer that question for you ADK GOAT. But, we definitely appreciate the watch and comment.
You should watch some dredging videos so you could get a clue on how to dredge🤣
Thanks for the advice Larry St. Clair, I will jump right on that. LOL.
Where did you pump the output to?
Hello @marsogreen2411, it gets pumped on down stream.
@@LakeHickoryScuba Thank you for the reply. Does this mean that somewhere downstream the water has gotten shallower? Not implying anything negative.

@@LakeHickoryScuba thank you again for the reply! That would be also my reason for dredging, but I can also use the extra dirt for planting
