Good Day Everyone,

It took me a long while to make this almost 40 min long video on YouTube... but it gets into everything for you. I measured the dimentions on all 3 of my bell syphons and took water flow measurements off of two of them so you can figure out how much water flow you will need to make yours super reliable! If there was a video like this it would have helped me out when building my first system a long time ago.

Farmers know to never drive a tractor near a honey locust tree. But a tiny ad is okay:
