Another video about my 100+ year old Beatty windmill. Alec shows how windmills could continue pumping water even with no wind.

Excellent explanation...Thanks a lot from Argentina!!!!

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Glad you enjoyed it! Hello from Canada. A

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

"These old guys aren't stupid": We need more of them Alec! Looking forward to the video on your hit & miss acquisition.

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Thank you Matt. Just did another shoot with Kevin and more coming for sure. A.

[@vossie1]

Great video learned a lot in a short time

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Glad it was helpful! A

[@yvesf5355]

Nice Job Alec thanks

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Thank you too! A

[@Will-ol9lp]

Sweet can’t wait to see it working. Very nice

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

You and me both! Soon as winter ends, around JULY!! A

[@anything.with.motors]

You remind me of my uncle Were also from ontario 👍

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Hope he was as crazy and outdoor guy like me! A

[@lazharguerri7662]

Thanks

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Welcome

[@owenmougenot712]

Hi Alec ,That is really neat, did you buy it restored? I don't recall seeing a video from you about restoring it? The mechanism inside probably still in solid condition, stuff was not disposable in the old days. I have a really bizarre old auto wiper motor that works completely by the intake manifold vacuum and an end of travel shifting valve. Interesting how things from the long past still work today. take care Owen m

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

I had it when I got the windmill but took a pandemic to give me time to fully restore and paint it. Thanks for watching and sharing Owen. A.

[@lazharguerri7662]

Thank you for the response. Is it possible to withdraw and pump water from a depth of 90 meters? The quantity does not matter, even if it is small. What is important is the result in the withdrawal and pumping. Thank you

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Not sure what is meant by withdraw but water can be pumped from even deeper if needed (that is deep). What about a solar sump pump for constant water if no wind? A

[@lazharguerri7662]

Hello, please, how much do you draw from a meter deep?

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

As in volume of water? Never measures but its equal to the volume inside the submerged pump so about 2 litres or so. A

[@shanek6582]

How deep can that thing pump water from? Also, you should have been an actor, something about you lol, imagine you instead of De Nero in taxi driver, that would be awesome.

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

That would depend on how good your in-water pump is. My water table is high but I know the Beatty pumper can pull up from 60 to 100' deep, its that tight a seal. Watch "#85 How does a windmill pump water". It will show how good these pumps were. Thanks for watching. A.

[@patrickgloss2096]

Reminds me of Bryan Cranston

[@patrickgloss2096]

Just got one for seven bucks and figured that is what it was for

[@lazharguerri7662]

I say withdraw, that is to say pump from a depth of 90 meters with this device, thank you

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

Generally, as long as the draw pipe is air tight (no leaks), a pump like this will pull water up using just a windmill. A

[@lazharguerri7662]

God overcomes weakness, so I want to resort to a solution like this machine to pump water from a great depth of 90 meters underground

[@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch]

This is an energy free solution for water. Watch my other videos on the windmill and underground water hydrant for more ideas. Good luck. A
