      The pipe thickness looks to be SDR 35 sewer and drain pipe. Notice when he drills in to it that it eggs a little, so it would not be schedule 40 or 80. Theirs is grey in color but it is usually green in the states.

      Im sure you can do it with any size pipe ,its just a matter of getting the tapered plug on the inside of your pipe. 4" easy 2" not so much

      I never thought of making a flange that way before, thanks for posting!

      I do have a question do to my only speaking one language. At about the 7 minute mark, what is the long pipe that he pulls out of the sump for?

      Never mind, I did some looking and found out it's an airlift pump. I've never seen one before, now I am doing some research.
      Sorry for my lack of paying attention!
