Anyone know of a 3-pt post pounder I can put on an N with 23hp?

For rolling up old wire I use a gasoline powered
roller made by E-Z products in Texas. The winder cost over $800.00 bucks but it will roll up a 1/2 mile of wire in less than 5 minutes & leave you with a manegable roll of wire.

I can't find Shaver's web page, but they are very good 3 point drivers. Most any farm supply outfits sells Shavers. Like most of 'em Shavers use gravity - AND two large springs - to drive the post. Believe me, you do want to keep your hands out of the way!

The Postmaster strikes about 50 blows a minute & you can load the "hammer" with hundreds of pounds of extra weight - like washers, chains, etc! Man does it ever put 'em in the ground!

There are any number of the Shaver type of pounder on the market, but I believe they are a "leader" of sorts. However, they are generally a two man operation.

I live in the Rocky Mts. & here the deal is to get the post in & then use the weight of the tractor to push it straight. If you fool around with trying to drive it 100% straight from the get go you'll be all day.

Remember, most frontend loaders are power up and gravity down, not the best for pounding a fence post. But I suppose if you put about 250# of deadweight in the bucket, it'd come down pretty fast, assuming you can lift your bucket high enough to begin with.

BIG SECRET for pounding pointed pressure treated wooden fence posts: PILOT HOLE. Jab a 6' 15# pointed end crowbar into the ground and grind it around in a circle. Do this until you can get the bar 16-24" deep. Then plant your post, then pound your post as deep as you want.

Remember, driven fence posts are stouter than any backfilled posthole. And don't plant your post in cement because it will rot the wood..... .....Dell

Works on most skid steer loaders so Bobcat, Case, Deere, New Holland dealers, etc should know about it.

I've used on and the darn things work. They claim 60 posts an hour which is a bit much, but it will flat out pick 'em up, align 'em & get 'em in the gound - F A S T! When I was in to it four years ago they cost $6,000 - but well worth it.
