A Baptist drilling rig, fit to drill holes up to 30 metres (98 ft) deep, can be built in Nicaragua for about US $150. This includes all essential non-common tools to operate it. Its core element, the drill bits, can be made in about any arc-welding workshop, using only scrap steel and materials that can be found in virtually any hardware store.
Five or six men could dig a brick-lined well with a depth of 7 to 10 metres (23 to 33 ft) in a week. This could irrigate crops over an area of up to 20 mu.

The factors affecting drill bit selection include the type of geology and the capabilities of the rig.

Two different types of drill bits exist: fixed cutter and roller cone. A fixed cutter bit is one ...
