Have funds available until end of DEC (3 days only) to purchase water well drill that I can use on my property to get water, possibly 100-200' down through rock and clay.
I've considered the following (just cause I happened to find them online):
1. Rockbuster R-77
2. "HowToDrillaWell.com" using air pressure (although their demo of rock drilling seemed to do nothing)
3. Rockmaster TX 450, or possibly bigger?
4. drillingfab.com R-77 magnum or is this the same as Rockbuster?
5. and possibly Hydra-jett also called hydra-fab.

I am disabled and on SSI but have done house construction in the past. If I hired a couple of helpers with muscle would any of the above, or something else, be suitable and reasonably likely to get me dependable water. I live on top of a knoll that is Merced or Wilson's Grove (geology terms) that has an interface, somewhere down the hill not too far with hard sandstone (Fransican). Although this is a very, very dry area generally, my immediate neighbors on the knoll have found water between 60' and 200'.

What do you suggest?
Thanks so much for your help.
