Yes, I know that you can push T-posts in with a loader.
I know that you can buy a hydraulic or gas-powered thingy.
I also know that you can get one at the store... but the local TSC and the Lowes were out.
The "heavy duty" model at Lowes is 17 pounds. This version comes in at about 25.
Puts posts in the ground in a hurry.
Might put me in the ground too... but I'm OK for now.
OK... sometimes I make stuff just to see if I can. But this thing does work, and it was made from scrap that I had sitting around. Took about an hour of actual fab time. Took about two more hours to find my tools, get my tools setup... put everything back...
Yes, that is a bathroom scale in the foreground of one of the pictures. It's always a fun project when you borrow the scale from the bathroom and then weigh yourself holding various pieces of scrap metal to see what they weigh...
