Ground rod drivers that fit demolition hammers and jack hammers are also
commercially available for around $50-$60.

I read the English gentleman's reference and his is good stuff but in my
case I am using a demo hammer not a drill. No rotary motion just hammer
blows and no drill type chuck so the referenced adapter is not useable. It
is easy to make an adapter by using a chisel made for the demo hammer,
cutting off the chisel tip and welding on a piece of conduit or pipe to
form a cup so the "business end" of the tool does not slip off the ground
(earth) rod.
