Before I found the one-gallon-of-water-method, I took an empty one-gallon
paint can, a two-and-a-half foot length of water pipe, a water pipe tee and
some concrete. I attached the tee to the pipe, suspended it with string in
the can so the tee was about 3 inches above the can bottom, poured in the
concrete, and let it set up. It made a nice homemade pile-driver for ground
rods in the gumbo that is the Texas Coastal Prairie soil.
