Pour un forage de quelques mètres de profondeur, on pourra utiliser un outil manuel appelé «sonde de Palissy» qui comprend une tige carrée en acier, de 2 cm de côté, aux extrémités de laquelle sont fixés un trépan d’une part, une cuillère de l'autre. La rotation de l'outil est assurée manuellement par la manœuvre d’un manche transversal appelé tourne à gauche monté sur la barre d’acier. La cuillère fonctionne comme une tarière, le sol étant emprisonné à l'intérieur. Le trépan sert à désagréger certaines couches de sol plus dur. 1, record 1, French, - sonde%20de%20Palissy
