If I remember correctly, it's a vacation property... There is an assumption of 'roughing it', with a cabin in the woods. His neighbors crap in a hole they dig... If modern comforts were the goal of the project, he would have run water and electrical. It's a crap-shack, not a jack-shack, maybe you forgot, since you crap in a sack...



And it seems that he is a business owner as well or did you miss that part? As such, it is possible that investors and scientists as well as friends might enjoy spending sometime with him.
And his vacation retreat might give him the opportunity to talk with them in a more relaxed, pressure free environment.
I'll give you an example. There are people I would like to work with. I don't have Xadoman's resources so I have to be more diplomatic. With Xadoman's product, myself I can see uses for it beyond what he has stated. But then I've only worked with and have repaired both steam turbines and steam powered generators.
With his invention, there might actually be a market for it if it can be understood how it can keep a business from shutting down both a turbine and generator. I have both schooling, work experience and operational experience in those 2 things.
And we know I mentioned 3 things, right? What matters? Presentation does. This is why I should have said;
I have education, operational, maintenance and repair experience in an industrial environment. Notice how by changing my presentation it allows me to demonstrate more of what is possible?

p.s., Harvey, if I am successful, I might be able to help promote his product. What he will not believe is that it would cost him nothing. I have my own projects that I am pursuing. With his invention, I would need to test it myself to see what it truly can do. And yes Harvey, I have rebushed bearings that have a 36 inch/91.44 cm diameter. This means melting the babbitt, cleaning the surface of the housing, tinning the housing then pouring new babbitt before boring it.
Tin can bond to both cast iron and babbitt. Kind of like nickel can bond to a housing/structure as well as platinum-alumnide. Platinum-alumnide is used for jet engines. They dissipate the heat generated. If not for that then gas turbine engines would melt their impellers.
And Harvey, as you're not aware of these things, these guys don't know it either so don't feel bad about it. They're learning from your questions and challenges.

And Harvey, with Xadoman's invention, I would see it as a distraction. It simply has nothing to do with what I am pursuing. It is his invention and is his problem. The science that I am pursuing simply has nothing to do with rebushing a bearing. His work is about that.

And then there is this; image 2 isn't working. With image 1, my father worked with the modelling of the 747. After that came his being a lead machinist for the

I am a wage slave( around 1300 dollars per month). I invested and keep investing into crypto in order to escape the wage slaving hell on earth.

I don't have Xadoman's resources


1300 dollars per month with wage slaving. It is hell on earth.

I live in the US. My income is about $1,300 a month ($1,440.00). Kind of why the US is rich.
By American standards I am near the poverty level. As for you, I am not sure what your invention is worth.
The video you showed has a limited use which limits its market. If you want me to be serious, why save the bearings you showed? China can replace them at a lower cost. So with me, I do understand market capitalization.
Your invention needs to undersell China. You have a product. But what is its market? In an industrial environment, how would you compare costs versus a cheap replacement?
Can you do the math? Or do you understand your market? Those 2 things will either drive the demand for your invention or it will be something meaningless.
As you know, my father was very involved with what engineering allows for. I am not him. I simply have other interests. A better bearing simply isn't one of them but is what will make your invention profitable.

@Xadoman, things get lost in translation. And with emotion, music can't convey that in a different emotion. This is where native speakers are needed to translate any language. An example is that I do not speak Spanish. I would need a native Spanish speaker to translate for me. And at the same time they would need to know what I mean.
After this, we're back to how we consider things and how we feel about them. And after this, we have math and engineering. That is something different.

@xado, if your invention is correct, have you ever replaced or rebushed bearings? If not, I have.

James , I do not have an invention. If you talk about the product called Xado, then I am just a fan of this product. I squeeze it into the engine oil , gearbox oil, powersteering oil etc to minimize friction. I treated my chainsaw and mowlaner.

If the water table is too high, the leach field won't work. You have to build a mound system, in which the leach field is above the tank, and you have to pump it there. There are pumps designed for this, but it is a pain. If you lose power, you lose your septic system. These system often have backup generators to keep the pump running.



I need to build a septic system for my summer house. It seems that the mound system is the way to go because of the water table and clay soil. There is also not enough natural slope to build a gravity flow piping from septic to leach field( distance from the well should be 200 feet and the leach field would have to be way under ground )

I have studied the mound system and I have a couple of questions.

1. Should the topsoil be removed from under the mound or is is better to leave it in place. I think it should be let in place because under the topsoil is clay which does not perk well. The natural topsoil should also contain all kind of critters which could be beneficial to the waste treatment( earthworms etc).

2. What should be the bulk material on the mound. I have read that it should be some kind of special quality sand but in real life I could get a plain sand nobody knows what kind of quality it has.

3. Should I make separate systems for black water( toilet) and gray water ( shower, kitchen sink). I was thinking that in this way in summer time if I have separate systems I could pump the gray water simply under the bushes far away to save the mound from too much water load.
I have read that the leach fields are prone to clogging because of the sodium that gets into sewage water. Sodium( salt) get into the water from urine, sweat, cooking water etc etc. It tends to clog the clay and form a layer which clogges the leach field.

Is it ok to pump gray water on the grass( at least 200 feet away from the well)?


4.How thick the mound should be . The frost line is considered to be around 1.2 meters.


I have also read about aerobic systems which supposedly should perform better than a septic with a leach field. Some of them use electricity to pump air into the water and some of them do not. The water coming out of those supposed to be potable but I have my suspicions about such claims. Sounds to good to be true.

Xadoman doesn't have an invention, he's working on a project. If his project works out, he'll be able to have a life with a nifty outhouse.

See your local code to answer these questions or talk to a septic systems engineer. In many jurisdictions, you are required to use an engineer to design the system for you. You can install it yourself in most cases (assuming you have the equipment for it!).

The ground will need to be tested to see how well the soil percolates as well. That requires an inspector. At that time he can also determine if a mound system is required or even suitable. The minimum distance to a well is also specified in the code and generally requires at least 100ft. Your local code may differ.

You always have the option of working for free ... but THAT would make you a slave ... which means that you aren't a slave at present. Your Marxist tendencies make you write some really silly things.

You continue to compulsively gamble your money away in known rigged casinos (i.e. crypto exchanges). Lying to yourself that you are somehow "investing" is all you can do to delude yourself into thinking that your reckless financial suicide is somehow responsible, prudent management of your assets.

You have no one to blame but yourself for your own financial ruin and your own self-deception.
