(created 2023-01-12). The excerpt is a single speaker demonstrating and explaining a homemade Everflow pig watering system: water collected from a mountain flows into a large tank and through PVC and 1-inch poly pipe into pastures, with a homemade weir, a 35-gallon tank, tees and shut-offs every ~100 feet, and a description of how the system fills an ever-flowing pit waterer. The content is instructional/demonstrative, walking viewers through the system layout and components.

Look, my Everflow pig waterer is working. Water's coming off the mountain in through there. It fills up this gigantic tank, exits through that PVC pipe there and down into the hose. It ends up down in the creek where it was going anyway. Let me show you where that system begins. At the top, utmost part of our property, we have this homemade weir. Plastic collection sheet, holes drilled in, mesh wire underneath that, a frame built around a 35-gallon tank that drains simply into this 1-inch water line. Then the water runs down this 1-inch affordable poly pipe down through our pastures. Every 100 feet I have these special connections— a tee shut off, 3/4-inch off of it, 1-inch shut off going down. I can slow the water down, push water into this line, which then goes to the ever-flow pit water.
