    I'm here LB! He hasn't caught me yet.

    Stg is right about the braided cooper. Get you a 4-8' ground rod or rebar, the longer the better. Dig you a small hole maybe a 1x1 ft. Then drive the rod down until it is below the level of the ground. Take a ground clamp and attach it to the ground rod, hook the braided wire to the other side of the clamp. Cover the hole and run the wire over to the box and drill a hole in it or use an existing one and run a bolt thru the box and tighten the wire down to the box. You can use some metal connectors for the attachments.

    The box should do you well. That will hold a bunch of electronic goodies.

    you can make yourself a rod pounder simply by using a piece of pipe, welding a top to it, and a set of handles on it. slide it over the top of the rebar,, lift it up and slam it down.

    and yes... the deeper the better!

    Lol. Thanks, Stormy.

    I'm too poor right now to buy decent shop lights. The barn doesn't have electricity, so I had to run a good amount of power cord from the house to hook them up. They do get the job done though.
