Post Driver Holds Wood Posts In Place FENCING Tools 25-6-33 "We wanted a way to hold a post in place while we drive it," says Michael Malone, Malone Engineering, Claremorris, Ireland.
Malone's new wood post driver has a driving plate fitted with two small spikes on the bottom. An 800-lb. hammer slams down on top of the plate. The hammer is raised by a cable that runs up over a pulley on top of the mast. The chain is controlled by a one-way hydraulic cylinder.
"We think it's the best wood post driver on the market and would like to find an importer into North America," says Malone.
