It’s amazing seeing where our drills have been over the years, especially when the jobsite comes with a backdrop like this. Ryan and the team at RDI Construction have had their EX125 WORD drill since 2019, using it for many marine construction projects including dock work, seawalls, etc.

We recently had the chance to spend some time with Ryan and his team in the field, giving their WORD drill a little attention and making sure it was ready to keep doing what it does best. When our team got back, the Marketing sleuths couldn’t help but flip through RDI’s socials and look back at some of their project photos - and found a few favorites that were too good not to share.

From one waterfront project to the next, this drill has certainly worked in some beautiful places.

Big foundation work happening in Minneapolis.

George was onsite recently, alongside Joe from Intech, supporting one of our customers as they install micropile and hollow bar foundation systems for a Metro Transit maintenance facility expansion.

Projects like this are a great example of what strong field support looks like: the right equipment, the right technical support, and the right people working together onsite to keep the job moving.

Proud to have WORD represented in the field and helping support the work from the ground down.

One of the best parts of Deep Foundations Institute's DFI: S3 was reconnecting with people who go way back with WORD.

During one of those conversations, we were lucky enough to get these jobsite photos from 2014, featuring an older WORD Drill at work on a utility project.

There’s something pretty cool about seeing one of our drills from more than a decade ago and getting a glimpse back at the work it was doing then.

We’re grateful these photos were held onto and even more grateful they made their way back to us all these years later.

A little piece of WORD history, straight from the jobsite.

Against the backdrop of Mount Sneffels, Colorado, Thorcon is putting their WORD Rock Drill to work on a hollow bar installation for a home foundation.

It’s the kind of project that shows just how rewarding this work can be. Challenging ground, precision drilling, and at the end of the day, knowing the work happening below the surface is helping create a solid foundation for someone’s future home.

And when this is your jobsite? Not a bad place to spend the day.

Great work by the Thorcon Shotcrete and Shoring crew, and thanks for taking WORD along for the stunning view.

Built for more than just speed at Nashville Superspeedway.

JK Rentals put their WORD SS530X to work in the infield, drilling 1” diameter holes 42” deep for anchor plates that will be used to secure semi-permanent tent buildings in the future.

Known for high-speed action and plenty of horsepower, Nashville Superspeedway made for a pretty exciting backdrop for this job.

It’s a unique application in an unforgettable location, and another great example of how the right drilling attachment can help make quick work of specialized projects.

Happy 5th WORDiversary, Hannah Fuqua! Today we’re celebrating five wonderful years of Hannah, our Shipping, Receiving, and Inventory Manager.

Hannah plays such an important role in keeping things moving behind the scenes. From managing inventory to helping make sure parts, pieces, and shipments are where they need to be, she helps keep our team organized and our drills moving toward the door.

Her work touches so many parts of the company, often in ways that are easy to overlook but impossible to operate without. She brings care, dependability, and a steady presence to everything she does, and we’re so thankful for the way she helps support both our team and our customers.

Congratulations on 5 years with WORD, Hannah! We’re grateful for all you do and so glad to have you as part of the WORD family.

Fencing a 2,700-acre solar site in Texas is no small job, especially with hard rock running throughout the entire project.

Commercial Fence Co. is putting a WORD SS57 skid steer drilling attachment to work, pre-drilling through demanding ground conditions to help keep fence installation moving across the site.

A tough project calls for equipment built to go the distance.

Happy 3rd WORDiversary, Lee Hughes! Today we’re celebrating Lee and the three years he’s been part of our WORD team.

As one of our Assembly Technicians, Lee plays an important role in building the drills that leave our shop and head out into the field. He brings knowledge, patience, and a helping hand to the assembly floor, and he’s always willing to take the time to educate, explain, or support anyone who needs it…inside or outside the shop.

Whether he’s answering questions, sharing what he knows, or helping keep things moving in the shop, Lee is someone our team can count on. Congratulations on 3 years with WORD, Lee! We’re thankful for the skill, experience, and teamwork you bring every day.
