[QUOTE="stugordon321, post: 2013460, member: 43272"] Hi all, I'm a newly established fencing& landscaping business (trading 18months now) most of my wrk is domestic fencing for houses etc along with the odd bit of agricultural fencing now & then. I'm intrested in buying a cheap post driver to make life easier. The tractor I own is a little Kubota (same size & weight as a grey fergie ) at the moment it doesn't have hydroillics other than it's 3pt linkage. I would like to know what people think of using a cheap old post driver the kind that has a big long boom going from 3pt to a square plate/foot that knocks post in, obviously I understand it will be slow going (faster than digging by hand & back filling) but will my little tractor cope with this? Does anyone know if there's any other post drivers that DONT relie on the hydroillics to power them?? Such as powered off the tractors PTO Eventually I would like to buy a bigger tractor etc but not for a while, so any help with the best way to go please. I've thought of using a auger but want to drive posts in so there stronger than back filling etc. I will dig/auger & concrete gate posts etc. any suggestions or help would be great. Thanks Stu [/QUOTE]
