You know that I worked for an electrical distributor for 5 years and in those years I have never seen a 3/4 inch acorn!
Maybe we should put that one into Ripleys!

Say What?
Holy *#%* Joe and Joe we / I use these often, it is rare for me to buy 5/8" x 8' rods, usually 3/4" x 8' or sometimes 3/4" x 10' rods.
Why? Job and power company specs often ask for 3/4" x 10' rods and if left up to me I ask for 3/4" x 8's habit I guess.
Also I usually have cad weld molds for 2 AWG to 3/4" rod and if I have the supplies I cadweld instead of acorns.
