Vibrating Post Driver vs Fencepro Farmtek 2

A vibrating plate post driver up against a Fencepro Farmtek rammer

[@michaelbagley9116]

A variation of this machine was used to drive treated posts into the ground to stabilize and serve as foundations for home in New Orleans Lousyiana

[@-joe90]

with the other machine you can also remove them by pulling up

[@szki272]

Turn the mini excavator around. Put the blade down then lift by doing this you can transmit up to 1/2 the mini excavators weight onto the post.

How is brexit fiasco going lol

[@jonsmitt9769]

Not a fair comparison in this video but I would take the tractor setup. Every farmer has a tractor, not everyone has an excavator. You can easily sight the post with the tractor, the excavator operator has to exit/enter his machine to setup, adjust and measure the post. A tractor can straddle a guidewire, drag a spacing chain and tow a cart of posts. A tractor can also unroll and tighten a roll of fence.

Super

What’s the vibrating driver brand?

[@wwindsunrain]

With such a fancy name I can guess which is going to work better.

[@neilspringle2082]

Try getting a proper digger diver

I could smoke that drop driver with my eterra breaker driver lol.

[@MrJFoster1984]

That is not vibratory, it is a modified rock breaker and so it is a hammer action!

Old school won again 😅

[@simonewing4222]

Dubdubdubdot farmgear, gotcha 😉

[@johnwoods7577]

you had already put HOLES DOWN AND THEN PUT THE POSTS IN SO HOW ARE WE TO KNOW IF BOTH HOLES WERE EQUAL DEPTH 🤣

[@farmgeardigital4782]

There were not any holes bored, the complete process is on the video.

[@lostboys8297]

Horrifying to watch the operator with no safety glasses on using a ram inches from his eyes. Unreal. Yet safety vest and hearing protection..... Nice equipment and thanks for the video but safety first please.

[@djtutty76]

I'd suggest you are easily horrified

This is brexitland fiasco. No common sense rules apply in this country anymore

[@miketoopitsin9449]

Lol it’s fine. Safetyism is the death of us if you haven’t noticed already

[@peterfarrelly2437]

Digger driver can't operate machine so it's an unfair comparison 👎👎

[@kerrinmcgaughey4893]

Ger a bigger digger mate all ill say and fence pros are rubbish get a TAEGE banger

[@farmerned6]

Bigger digger would be a HIGH cost on the average farm a tractor would there aready Hiring a Midi digger would be normal But having a 10 -15 ton digger is SPECIALIST , even for a fencing contactor , having a 10 -15 ton digger PLUS the lowloader to move it would be a huge cost the post knocker , could go on a 40Kph tractor , or on a mini tractor and be trailered around easy bigger digger isn't a practical option , so wouldn't be a fair test

[@TheFamilyFarm1]

Must be cheap shyt. Digger wins every time and gets far more places

[@farmerned6]

drive it down the road 20 miles to the next job , and see
