I never knew this was sooooooo hard. The last post setting thread 6 months ago went 30 pages

When I was 14,15 yrs old- we sawed down honey locust, dug a hole 18” deep with post-hole-diggers and dropped the raw post in there. Jammed a bunch of rocks in the with a tamper rod and piled the dirt back in there. Next hole...lather rinse repeat




Now today, with treated, same thing but I use concrete in there. 15 years here in Rain Every 3 Days Tennessee, they are not rotten yet.

Maybe I need some master Sgt stripes for all the posts I’ve set. Every time we moved every three years in the army, we had to fence 20-30 acres for my mother’s dumb ass horses.
