This is the thing to get a pole in the ground. I used it to put up an electric fence around a pear orchard once
Okay now im curious, why does an pear orchard need an electric fence?
Ents.
Keep animals out, would be my guess.
Keep people in, would be my guess.
To keep the trees from escaping, would be my guess.
I guess in case people try to jump over to steal the pears before they can be harvested
Pear stealing whores.
But are these potential Peach-Thieves sooooo determined that a normal Fence is not enough? I like peaches, but climb a fence to steal some? ._.
I saw a kid piss on an electric fence once. Fucking hilarious.
I watched my brother do this to a cow/horse electric fence, can confirm, fucking hilarious

Potato gun
clank clank clank clink “Yup, this one’s done”
“Now onto post 57”
Yes, I have seen Clarksons‘s Farm.
Don’t anger Caleb by doing it like Jeremy did
This is what people used to call a “kazoo”. If you’ve been around as long as I have, you might have played one too!
It’s called ‘hearing damage, the cowhand communal commiseration.’
It looks like a potato gun
It is much less fun than that
metal pipe with handles 👍
are you calling me old?
Post driver! They have hand held gas powered ones now BRrRrRrRrRrRrPppPPpp
And if you use ear protection you can get off my property you piece of shit grandson
WHAT!?! SPEAK UP PLEASE!
Ugh. My hands and back hurt just looking at that.
I’m gen Z, grew up in the city, and I know what that is because we used em in the Boy Scouts. It’s for pounding fence posts into the ground. The other end is welded shut and you put the post in the ground, put it over top of it, and pick it up and slam it down a buncha times
They also make ideal launchers for fire works:) especially in areas where the local police get pissy despite them being legal, you can go out to the country side, mount it upside down and fire off some rockets and yank it out and move a few county roads over before the sheriff can arrive.
… Or so I’m told.
Please just don’t do this during a drought or burn ban. So many fucking fires caused by fireworks each year. So dumb. Don’t do it.
??? What does a fence post driver have to do with your age?
Age wasn’t mentioned
Edit: I can’t read
Well for some… It’s a thing you put fireworks into…
And for a certain group of people, their houses get fucked with by cops using a variant of this.
No, I’m pretty sure it’s how SWAT get through doors
Those are closed on both ends and have both handles on one side or one handle on the top with handles on both sides.
The tube looks hollow. SWAT would use a solid ram.
RAM makes police vehicles, but the Ford Police Interceptor tends to be more popular with SWAT.
Relevant
I never thought to use one of these as a mortar tube, that’s a brilliant idea.
Here I was thinking it was an unpainted big red key
*ground rod driver
When I first started in electrical work, we’d take turns with a sledge hammer. Then we bought one of these, and it cut the time in half. Now, I use a driver bit for my demolition hammer and it’s done in about 30 seconds. The driver bit also works well for fence posts, just sleeve a 24" section of EMT over it.
Exactly. Back breaking work but this is so much better than any other manual alternatives.
We didn’t have one of these. Instead, I got to crouch on the ground and hold the post with my hands while my father brought the front-end loader bucket down on it. Good times.
Ah yes, the “we’re young enough to have another kid” parenting method
Key memory unlocked. Oh damn I just remembered the sheer amount of faith I had to remind myself I had in my father’s post driving ability
