First Transcontinental Telegraph - electric drilling rigs - China percussion drilling equipment
Background
After the development of efficient telegraph systems in the 1830s, their use saw almost explosive growth in the 1840s. Samuel Morse's first experimental line between Washington D.C. and Baltimore was demonstrated on May 24, 1844. By 1850 there were lines covering most of the eastern states, and a separate network of lines were soon to be constructed in the booming economy of California.
California was also admitted to the United States in 1850, the first state not contiguous with the eastern government. Major efforts ensued to integrate California with the other states, including sea and overland mail and passenger service. Proposals for the subsidy of a telegraph line to California were made in Congress throughout the 1850's, but it was not until 1860 that the U.S. Post Office was authorized to spend $40,000 per year to build and maintain an overland line. The year before, the California State Legislature had authorized a similar subsidy of $6000 per year.
Construction
The federal contract authorized through the Pacific Telegraph Act of 1860 was awarded to Hiram Sibley, the president of the Western Union Company. He then formed a consortium between Western Union and the telegraph companies in California: to share the efforts of constructing the overland telegraph, to split up the federal and state subsidies, and to share any profits from operation of the line. The newly consolidated Overland Telegraph Company of California would build the line eastward from Carson City (the eastern terminus of their lines), using the newly developed central route though Nevada and Utah. At the same time, the Pacific Telegraph Company of Nebraska was formed by Sibley. It would construct a line westward from Omaha, essentially using the eastern portion of the Oregon Trail. The lines would meet at a station in Salt Lake City.
Materials for the line were collected in late 1860, and construction proceeded during the summer and fall of 1861. Major problems in provisioning the construction teams were overcome, and there was a constant shortage of sources of telegraph poles on the plains of the Midwest and the deserts of the Great Basin. The line from Omaha reached Salt Lake City on October 18, 1861, and the line from Carson City was completed on October 24.
Impact
The telegraph line immediately made the Pony Express obsolete, which officially ceased operations two days later. The overland telegraph line was operated until 1869, when it was replaced by a multi-line telegraph that had been constructed alongside the route of the Transcontinental Railroad.

What specific type of epoxy should I use to bond cured concrete to steel plate?
I need to bond a 1" thick 6 square foot steel plate to a cured indoor concrete floor. What specific epoxy (chemical, or even specific brand, model, etc.) should I use for maximum permanent adhesion?
Also, can a percussion (hammer) drill successfully drill a 1" hole in cured concrete? Or do I have to use a rotary hammer? If the latter, will the hole be as neat and tidy?
I would use an epoxy made by the company below. They have been making epoxy materials for decades and are considered the gold standard in many industries.
