>I was hoping for an educated technical answer ie: ft. lbs. per blow sufficient to drive through bedrock and chunk rock quickly using a ground rod driver attachment (yea, they make those). There are hammer drills with up to 40-50 ft.lbs. per blow/1200 per minute, that can do the job faster. Thanx for the responses Fred, Barney, and Mr. Slate, but I'll stick with my own research. Don't bother suggesting a hacksaw. Say hi to Wilma for me. :-)

>> Your'e asking for some ribbing here. Hammer drill a gnd rod? The easiest and most economical way I know to "DRIVE" a gnd rod is a steel pipe with a cap ie.. 1" galvinized or you can buy a gnd rod driver at Grayson's, Grainger's, or Meyers elictrical supply house.
