Electrical supply places (not home depot or lowes) will have exothermic
welding stuff (OneShot(tm) for instance). A little ceramic mold and
some powder you dump in and ignite).
Split bolts in copper/bronze are also used to join large conductors.
Those do show up at the HD/Lowes kind of places, although perhaps not
for 4/0.
you could also hard solder the cable to the rods if you use a suitable
high melting solder and a torch.
