[QUOTE="Redgully, post: 1630790, member: 33533"] The old guys around here swore by those cable tool rigs. Problem is we have a lot of rock and then they are useless. My dad used to drill with one and said if you hit mud they would just slosh. He reckons it was the most boring job he ever had. Pardon the pun. Once rotary came in the old cable tool rigs disappeared fast. I've never seen one in person actually working. That old rig sat out the front of the neighbours place for years until a guy stopped and made an offer for it, said it was just what he has been looking for. Recently someone here was after one because he believes drilling granite is bad because it has radiation in it and these rigs just bounce off granite. Takes all types to make the world go around.
