Where can these be constructed? only near an aquifer?--Alc 14:16, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Open space probably refers to just that - a dug-out space below it that leads to water. Will have to test, though. --Tracker 15:54, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Does it need to be a channel all the way down, on all levels below the well, or can you have normal floor below it all the way down to water? Can you put one well directly above another well, and have them both work (if there's water below)? --Sowelu 15:56, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

You don't need to have channels all the way down. I haven't actually built any, but I don't see why it HAS to go all the way down, I just think there needs to be water there.
Has it been verified that you need water down there? --Mitchy 11:22, 8 November 2007 (EST)

Does anyone know if it is okay to have a well like this?
