7:36 min movie on how I clean out the bottom elbow half filled with mud and weights too much for me to lift up and carry any distance, so just as if I was still tunneling/mining I have to clean this mud out before I can lift it and bring it to the surface on the winch, not an easy job as you will see, in the old days before I came up with this idea of making a chisel edged plate and welding it onto a jack pick tool I used to do this by hand with a metal bar and when I was finished which was about nearly an hour I was really to tired to do much mining.

As I was hand mining then by drilling and blasting and don't forget that I also had the small elbow up top at the blower to do as well along with the 2 telescopes [1 top and 1 bottom] that also got some mud build up in them as well, normally this operation used to take me about 20 minutes the next morning after it got blocked with the Electric Jackpick as the mud was still very wet as you are going to see in this movie.
Please allow for the streaming of the movie and if you have a dial up connection it will be very slow.
