Uncovering the Possibilities: A Photo Gallery of Baughman Farm Excavating LLC's Directional Boring Projects
This is our locating system, a crucial tool that allows us to precisely steer the drill bit and connect both ends of the bore path. The system provides the operator with detailed information, including the pitch of the drill head, enabling them to control the depth accurately. Additionally, it displays the roll of the head, allowing precise directional control—whether steering left, right, up, or
On longer bores, during projects that require extensive reaming, or in challenging weather conditions, we set up a protective tent over our drill. This not only shields the equipment from the elements but also enhances productivity and operator comfort, allowing us to maintain efficiency and focus even in less-than-ideal conditions.
In this picture, Donald is connecting the water line to the boring head. Depending on the size of the pipe, we can either pull the pipe directly using the boring head or use a reamer to enlarge the hole, allowing for a smoother installation of larger pipes.
