How To Set Corner Posts Without Concrete
 ✖  |
"I bought a hydraulic auger off a utility truck from a nearby city. The auger is 18 in. dia. and will dig 8 ft. deep. It has a lot more power and teeth that are a lot more aggressive than any tractor-mounted digger," says Allyn Boling, Lentner, Mo.
"I cut corner posts that are 12 ft. long and put them 8 ft. in the ground. The wire can be stretched immediately after the post is dropped into the ground, unlike a post set into concrete. It's also a lot easier than mixing concrete.
"I bought the digger for $500. Also, you can buy a used payloader like this one for about the same price as an add-on loader for a farm tractor and it's much heavier."
