That looks cool !
But me and Marc use are large Hammer Drills. With blocks on them when neccessary.
I could see that screw head hitting a rock and going off in a 60 degree turn.
What is a "water based slurry" ?
I like the concept of using the hole hawg and NOT standing on an 8' ladder but I'm not too keen on the drilling method. I'm not lovin the augers that "attach" to the rods either
Hmmmmm....if the manufacturers cut burly threads into the end of the ground rod?????
I use a 42# demo hammer with a ground rod driver bit, or in a pinch, a smaller demo hammer.

I think it looks good..another 4.50 for every install though..wonder how much time difference from the hammer drill attachment though..It looks allot easier to use..

I guess you would loose the tips and have to replace them or would you have to back the rod out, take the tip off, and reinstall the rod.

I'm sorry guys if this was already posted, I have noticed that some post get deleted because they have already been talked about by the moderators? If there is a moderator right now can you explain why this is? I haved looked at some post that had questions and I did not feel it gave me exactly what I was looking for or hoping for. Maybee a new member to the site could give good insight to the question in a different way. I'm still new here and still haven't quite learned how things work. I'm am very happy to be here and very thankful for the site. Thanks Mike. Thanks guysDennis Alwon said:

It works like this:
You ask a question. It gets answered, ignored, deleted, or closed.
You debate, you argue, you defend, you get mad, you get happy, you get over it, and life goes on.
Welcome to the forum, and happy to have you here.
Happy posting.......or not.
:smile:
And from time to time, you get to help someone out. Very rewarding.

The TE-76 makes easy work of ground rods. It's a novel concept though.

I'm all for making ground rod installation easier. My only questions are about the set up time power(generator?) and the source of water for the "slurry". The electrical cord was in the video.
