Having done something like this before (wine cellar), garden rope light into a routed wooden surround just under the glass is a good option, or these days LED strips. Gives uniform light down the well all the way round and no glare, also has the effect the wood looks like part of the support frame for the glass. Just food for thought, great job as always though!

Saw your video today regarding the well. I have I used the following miniature lights before. Not cheap but great for feature lighting. Low power and dmx controlled.

[@benwray6873]

8:35: Nigel says "don't loose that down there", doesn't he realise manhole covers were designed round so that it prevents them from falling through the opening 😁. Worked on Lancaster Castle and there was a well in the middle of the courtyard (outside the new cafe), expect it got covered up rather than made into a luverly feature like this🤦‍♂️. Good work gents, suprised you didn't go magnet fishing though!

[@dsesuk]

We lacked a decent magnet. And string. Also, I'm not sure we really want to fish out whatever's lurking down there. It may be drinking water to Cockney John, but we may have fished up goodness knows what when next-door flushed their loo.

This video really brightened up my evening.. just like the title..

[@paulgoffin8054]

If you ever do something similar guys, the one thing you don't have to worry about is a round cover falling through the hole - the reason manhole covers are round is they cannot fall through the hole, as no matter what "across" you take, it's always the diameter which is always bigger than the diameter of the hole. Rectangular covers, yeah, you'll lose those in an instant.

[@lukeboy94yo]

Hi Dave, if you ever do something like this again, use Collingwood MF02 mini spot with bracket. Really bright and small! Great video as always :D

[@dsesuk]

I'll take a look Luke. Not least because the homeowner may decide they want something flashier!

[@gavinhibberd1708]

Gavin - 12 Garden Lighting. Great video again - always entertaining. Collingwood Stainless Steel Universal lights work 'well' in wells. Constant current, remote driver. 3m of cable. I served my apprenticeship at BA many years ago with lots of old boys who had worked on flying boats before the war - if you ever dropped a tool while working on a wing or up in the tail they would always say 'Lucky you don't work on fucking flying boats....' They always tied their tools on a length of string... which was fun to cut behind their backs....

[@jontownsend8090]

Although we missed a trick by not bunging Bundy down there.

[@seandempsey9396]

Please forgive me for being a pain but can ask you a question? Your multifunction tester gives an of the scale reading of >999megohms and some gives >500 megohms, the one I have gives a reading of >555gigohm dose this matter and what do you put on the test certificate,? This is for installation resistance at 500v dc

[@oliverriall]

Interesting fact for you, the reason man holes are round is because you can't loose the cover down the hole. Nige needn't be so worried.

[@stuartarnold9444]

Are you saying that Nige is round?

[@dsesuk]

You'd think someone who I pay in coins would appreciate the properties of round shapes.

[@royking1]

"Obviously there is going to be a glass lid going on there, which isn't available today. So we're not going to see it in its full glory... " Why the big pause? Were you expecting Nige to interject with a well timed hole? 🤣

[@robputt]

Install Phillips Hue GU-10s in those lights, would be pretty cool to change the well colour.

[@Arachnoid_of_the_underverse]

Id have suggested a tube painted black across the well mounted onto the bottom of the ring with a t point in the center allowing a waterproof pendent to be lowered further down into the well. If I were the owner Id be tempted to get a grabber on a long rope and see if there are any coins or such in the well as given its age there must likely be something there.

[@andrewmounsey5030]

Well, this was a little different from the usual Savery offering of bored swaps. Presumably they are using the Well as a feature (lord knows why, some people have more money than sense but hey ho, keeps Dave a Nige off the streets). As it's a feature Well, I would have gone for some expensive Italian Architectural external lights; it was always going to be impossible to hide the fittings so go for some bling ones an add to the feature. Have a look at iGuzzini for inspiration. Most of the fittings can also be specified with different reflectors and lamps to adjust the characteristics of the output.

you can use candle soot (or barbecue/charcoal/coal dust) to darken brick so it doesn't glare so much with lamps up close. Just rub it on the brick *very* fucking gradually and don't overdo it. Rub it on a cloth first and rub the cloth on the brick otherwise you'll end up with streaks
