Driving a grounding rod was always a job I dreaded. Hammering and pounding on that 8 foot long wobbly bit of metal. • I came up with a better way. I already drove one all the way home, but I was using my 80 gallon compressor, which took at most 3 minutes to run it all the way into the ground. • Today we try it with a wimpy little pancake compressor to see if its feasible for new construction. • Key things in video: • Any air hammer would work, and there are products more specifically designed to do this rather than a U-Joint tool like I used, but I already had that ujoint tool. • 0:00 Intro • 0:28 What we're gonna do • 1:05 The tiny air compressor we'll use to show this can be done on a job site without a large compressor • 2:24 Here commenceth the driving of said grounding rod • 3:10 Final thoughts, end of video. • • Affiliate Links: • Here are the links to amazon in case you want to try this: • Ingersoll Rand 114GQC: https://amzn.to/2P9cjYq • Lisle 18980: https://amzn.to/2E2kR1Z • • Products I highly reccomend for elsewhere in your air system: • 100ft Continental hose: https://amzn.to/2p3K8Tz • 50ft Goodyear hose: https://amzn.to/2nkXN8h • Tekton 100ft Hose reel: https://amzn.to/2p29KA3 • Regulator for spray gun/etc not main tank regulator: https://amzn.to/2niX0EN • Parts I've used in the permanent plumbing side of my air system: • 10pk 1/4 Male nipple: https://amzn.to/2ojT1aT • 10pk 1/4 Female nipple: https://amzn.to/2nwKAZP • 10pk 1/2 male to 1/4 female reducer: https://amzn.to/2oUuXf4 • 10pk 1/2 pex to 1/2 female npt: https://amzn.to/2ny7lwq • 10pk 1/2 pex to 1/2 male npt: https://amzn.to/2o9F7YZ • 10pk pex tee: https://amzn.to/2nyM0Dh • Some of my favorite air tools: • IR 114GQC Air Hammer: https://amzn.to/2mEG3UV • IR 231HA 1/2 Impact: https://amzn.to/2p2nHOr (Get a boot for it so you don't scratch it when you drag it across the floor by the hose: https://amzn.to/2nuEnO9) • Nitrocat 1076-XL 3/8 Impact: https://amzn.to/2nuS3bV • Surebonder 9600B stapler: https://amzn.to/2p4bNDT • Some kind of cheap set like this with a blowgun and tire chuck: https://amzn.to/2p48OLH • The fittings: (Run V-style on high power stuff like the impacts, you're safe to use low flow fittings on the blowgun/tire chuck etc) • V Style (purple) 14 pack: https://amzn.to/2nx8qnP • V Style Brass/Steel set: https://amzn.to/2nqgxCU • Bulk: • V Style Coupler (Purple, Female) 10 pack: https://amzn.to/2lR2oy0 • V Style Plug (Purple, Male) 20 pack: https://amzn.to/2mA4MJO
