- I bought a Man Savor post driver. We are going to be rebuilding fence on the place. Also building new fence. This post driver is going to save a lot of time and a lot of back aches
I had no idea this tool existed. I was looking for a post driver that can be attached to a tractor and found this. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing!
Good stuff 😊
Near the end of the video Butch stated, "It took me a little while." Yes, he's correct. This operation is a very slow process. Too bad that the manufacturer did not make a heavier post driver having a longer stroke. What you see here is not much more than a toy Mattel post driver. I have over 200 post to drive and with this contraption I'd be fired by my customer after I installed only 1 post. I'm not trying to be offensive. I'm just stating the facts. Thanks for a great video, Butch. God job!
A larger compressor might drive it faster?
man I don’t drive post for anything but my personal use. Takes about 10 minutes to drive 5 foot in my ground and I’m in no hurry thanks for watching.
$800 tool but didn't pick up a $6 post level? haha, can't wait to get one of these
thats so awesome
Good video. I’m surprised the post pounder works as well as it does off of that little pancake compressor.
Fukz widit. Im getting one of these puppys ASAP
dang!... my back hurts just watching this
Dune - The movie 🍿 😂 waiting for the worms 🪱 to attack 😅 thx u 🙏 for the informative video
From your video, I can tell that your pancake compressor was able to drive the posts. Were you able to just 'get by' with the pancake, or was it able to keep enough air flow coming to the hammer to be efficient? I ask because I have that exact compressor. I'll be setting about 30 8', 2 7/8" posts at 3' instead of 5', but time will be a factor as it is a dividing fence between me and the neighbor. Thanks for your video, btw
I had to wait and let compressor catch up but it drove the post fine
Those compressors can burn up with constant use. As long as the motor gets enough down time, you’re good.
The biggest problem is he don’t have enough air pressure 😂
Seems to me that it would be faster to "drill" the boring for your fence post. Then, fill the boring with concrete once you've placed your fence post into the hole. Time is money.
@@experimentator1061 if you live in an area where the ground freezes, then yes most likely.
Unless you are retired and it's something to keep you busy as you have enough money in the first place.
I’m not making money this is for my own place and it works great. I’m in no hurry
That poor little pancake compressor will be worn out if you have many posts to drive. How long does it take to drive a 6 1/2' T-post? I use a 2-stroke gas powered driver and it takes 1-5 minutes per post, depending on how hard or rocky the ground is.
Next time measure and mark your post to the dept you want it in the ground before you start..with a marker one can see with having to measure all the time.
I was measuring for video the post was marked
That’s pretty neat. I’m wondering it something like this would work good on the farm when we need to put more fencing up.
It sure helps especially the older I get
Can you tell me what kind of soil you are driving that post into? Clay versus sand versus sandy loam? Also how long did it actually take to drive that post in the ground? Have you driven t-posts? If so how long do they take?
kinda Sandy loam clay on the bottom. it took about 10 minutes to drive 5 foot. haven’t drove any t post
Do you think the basic is enough for T-post or get one bigger with the T-post adapter. I just want to put T-post in the ground the fastest
I think the basic would be good but just think if you ever wanted to drive something bigger
Anything bigger would be wood corner post or 8” post along the fence
Man Savior E-? I need to find out which driver you are using, and the diameter on the outside post is. thanks
99 E M man savior post driver. the pipe outside diameter was 2 7/8 and 10 ft long
What model post drive are you using in the video?
99 EM is the post driver size 2 7/8 pipe
Do you think the gas powered ones are more powerful?
Never used a gas powered one thus is the only one I have used
Where did you find that post driver at
I found it on the internet. I think the company is in Oregon
I was under the impression that the voice of the Hank Hill cartoon character was a gross over exaggeration just to get a laugh, I guess it's actually a true depiction of how some people really speak.
What is the name of the device you are using to drill down the pole ?
A post driver

What state are you in, and what soil type do you have?
I’m in Northeast Texas. Sand, clay and iron ore is what type of soil we have. What I’m driving the post in is 6 to 8 inches of topsoil the rest is clay
@@homesteadingwithbutch4410 Thank you. I'm in North East Oklahoma, and just purchased one of these. I too have a lot of clay and sandstone.
Watching this gives me severe anxiety, because I am trying to get a picture of this for 200 posts. No thank you. The first thing to do is get a much quieter Gast industrial grade oiiless compressor. They purr like a kitten. Also if you are touching the string, or too far away, have that woman wack the bottom of the post into position with a 5 lb hammer. You will really hurt your back lifting 2 7/8 tubing and especially with additional weight of the tool. I have so much hard cliche and a lot of rock underneath the top soil in a lot of areas here.
Coulda sat back and had the daughter do it with a hand pounder while you sat back and drank beer. 🍺After she went to the house and got the case of beer 🍻 for you of course. 🤔
Walt,I like the way you think !
i have used all sorts of air tools in my life and have never and never see any one ad oil to the hose before . im pretty sure thats why its called tool oil and not hose oil. but who knows maybe i have been doing it wrong my whole life????
I think that is an oilless compressor with no Oiler on the compressor. The Sears oilless compressor I have is from the 1980's and was marketed for painting, filling tires etc.
Trim air nailers for paneling often have oil that is a different oil than air tools like air wrenches. The reason is the O-Rings are different materials on the airless compressor tools.
An old friend said they all use the same oil then his oilless compressor tools O rings all went bad.
A low cost 80 buck airless 0.5 SCFM compressor and paneling nailer I got a box store had a disclaimer that the warranty was void if the wrong oil was used, it came with its own bottle of oil.
So the fill the hose method probably is rare but you could ruin another tool if it has O rings of the wrong material for the oil.
The early 80's Sears 3/4 HP compressor here has a 919 . model number thus Ingersoll Rand as a maker. The motor inside is full 56 frame GE motor, probably why no issues. It is like 4.2 SCFM at 40psi and 3.2SCFM at 90psi. Right after I got the unit and an air tank to add as a buffer; the marketing chaps started the compressor on tank for smaller compressors.
Where does the air from the hose go? including the oil that is in it?
cant hear you
Could not hear a word he said.
Useless.Compressor barely fit for spraying paint😂
Man thats pathetic you could do any better than that 99 dollar craftman mucky mouse air compressors .
