[QUOTE="Allen, post: 492229, member: 389"] Love the idea of using a starter hole with the auger! If I understand correctly though, you plan on then driving a 4 inch pipe down some 14 feet and then placing the sand point inside the 4 inch pipe and driving that down to the final depth? If so, I envision there will be a problem with that design. The sand point tip is designed to wedge the geologic medium and push it off to the side. Which causes compaction of said medium. If that sand point is placed into a dirt filled 4 inch pipe, I think you will be able to push it only a foot or two before it gets stuck. There is nowhere but down for that material to go and it will get firm very fast once you start pounding on it. I'd use the 4 inch riser pipe to case however far down you can get with the auger, but nothing more. [/QUOTE]
