Unusual equipment
Seen this hydraulic post pounder on CL this morning. I have no use for one but I think this would be a handy piece of equipment for the right person.

Re: Unusual equipment
We've got the pressure, and flow to run that...
I don't think we've got enough tractor to hook it to though.
I looked up the manufacturer's site. They offer trailer mounted units that are bigger than the HD-8, so mounting it to a towable frame would likely be possible for this one.
I just saw an older all mechanical post pounder on craigslist the other day. Thought it would potentially be a handy machine, but the price was a little more than I wanted to pay on a whim, for something I don't need often.

Re: Unusual equipment
Yes it probably would be too much for the 200 or 400 series GT’s. A 600 series has a bit more weight to it.Toolslinger wrote: ↑Thu Jun 27, 2024 8:28 am We've got the pressure, and flow to run that...
