| + | == How to drill through an Aquifer == | ||
| + | |||
| + | QuantumMenace has developed a method how to drill through an aquifer of an unknown depth. This is a newbie-friendly and detailed tutorial based on [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=79224.msg2060636#msg2060636| Quantum's original forum post]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Even in this newbie-friendly tutorial it won't harm if you first train this on an embark which you don't intend to play after you've made it through the aquifer. Therefore I suggest you take this embark setup: | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Suggested embark setup === | ||
| + | * 1 Proficient Miner | ||
| + | * 3 Proficient Masons | ||
| + | * 1 Proficient Carpenter | ||
| + | * 1 Proficient Woodcutter | ||
| + | * 1 Proficient Mechanic | ||
| + | |||
| + | sell the anvil to buy: | ||
| + | * 30+ stones (you will need 16 pieces of building material per aquifer level) | ||
| + | * 4 logs (to build a [[DF2012:Carpenter's workshop|carpenter's workshop]] and a [[DF2012:Screw_pump|pump]]) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Make sure you have at least: | ||
| + | * 1 (battle) axe | ||
| + | * 1 pick | ||
| + | to cut down trees and mine | ||
| − | = | + | === Procedure === |
| − | + | ==== Preparation ==== | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | Using your logs of wood, you | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | 1. Build a carpenter's workshop | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | Your carpenter will use this workshop to craft all the parts necessary to build a pump, i.e.: | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | 2. a [[DF2012:Block|block]]<br /> | |
| − | + | 3. an [[Corkscrew#Enormous_corkscrew|enormous corkscrew]]<br /> | |
| − | + | 4. a [[DF2012:Pipe section|pipe section]] | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | 5. Dig a 2×2 staircase until you reach the aquifer layer. | |

| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | 2. Make sure you have at least one dwarf with the [[DF2012:Pump_operator|pump operating]] labor enabled. Start pumping the water from one side to another. And build walls around the first quadrant. | |

| + | |[[Image:Aq17.png|frame|left|4. Until it looks like this. You mustn't dig the wall under the stairs.]] | ||
| + | |} | ||
| − | + | 6. Now for the last quadrant. Deconstruct the pump and build it to pump to the opposite direction. It will spill some water on its level while pumping, but it isn't dangerous. | |
