It is a traditional mine from which water can be raised in a bucket with a drum rotation. It is usually attached to the pillars and the chain is attached to it, and the handle is provided for unwinding and winding the chain. The installation of such a design is possible in places where water flows at a depth of 8 meters.

Structure of Shadour

This type of construction is not widely distributed in domestic expanses, but last time it was used quite actively. The structure is a well of medium depth, the water from which rises through levers and crane. Its installation is possible only on the ground where the groundwater is close to the surface.

For the author's decoration of the well, such raw materials can be used as: natural stone, pebbles, wood, gypsum, etc. The main thing is that work with them did not give a lot of trouble.

Today, concrete uses concrete for low tide. After it deepens to the ground, a fragment protruding over the surface remains. This part of the ring is called the headband. In order for the construction for a long time and provided the owner with clean water, the headband should be insulated before starting it to decorate it. To arrange this part of the design, you must perform the following actions:

1. Lower the concrete ring with straw boards.
2. Cove the wooden surface with a protective agent and apply varnish.
3. Decorative stone lay out the diameter of the glove.

This is a traditional version of the design, which will ensure not only the external attractiveness, but will allow preserving the necessary temperature regime within the mine even in the frost period of the year.
