Default Advice needed on odd problem - Need some kind of rustproof clips to grip about 3/8" steel rod tightly & neatly

the post in the concrete is to get some grounding wire clamps at the
local hardware store and just attach them to the post end where it
will be buried in the concrete. No one will be able to pull the post
from the concrete. See type of clamps he

Bingo and bookmarked. Now I hope I can buy those at the hardware or
electrical supply store. There are several there that would work nicely
and not too expensive. The iron rods are about 5/16", looks like the
1/2" one might work. Probably don't have the right size hex bolt
thingie. And the paper jammed in the printer, but I got it out.

If not, I will order from that place, maybe I will anyway unless they
are wholesale or minimum order people, what size do you think? I like
the gold roundish ones but will settle for anything rustproof that will
work at this point..

Thanks so much. I googled as best I could on this one and without the
proper nomenclature, you know what that means.

Now how do I cut the hole in the bottom of the pepsi bottle? Drill?
Guess I'll just try and see what happens there. Betcha I don't have a
wide enough bit. Nope. Will get one. Can't cut slits or they might
tear. I think the washer is a good idea. A large one with the proper
size of hole.

One stupid little project and look what you get yourself into.



Please could you check your link? I got a power/utility station
schematic.

Damn tabbed browsing! :-)


Yeah, it sounded so ominous I didn't want to mess with that.
