When the farm comes to the question of the need to install a light fence, then the posts for tensioning the mesh need not be dug in or concreted. Your best bet is to just hammer them into the ground. This means that swinging a heavy sledgehammer is indispensable. The job is dusty and difficult. However, experienced summer residents are well aware that the "barbaric" tool can be replaced with a more elegant and convenient tool. There is just one small problem. First you need to do it.

What you need: steel pipe, sheet steel, reinforcement not thinner than 10 mm

The tool that needs to be made is basically a one-meter section of pipe with a diameter larger than those of the posts that need to be driven into the ground. On one side, the pipe must be plugged by attaching an insert made of sheet steel. A welding machine will help us in this matter. In addition, two handles should be welded to the tube, which are pre-made from fittings. That's all you need to do to create a tool.

It is not at all difficult to use the instrument, although physical efforts will still have to be applied. The device works in the same way as a construction hammer for driving piles when building a house. First, a hole is made in the ground, a fence tube is installed in it, after which our tool is put on top. Further, the "hammer" rises up the tube and drags downward with a sharp movement.

Separately, it should be noted that working with such a tool also needs to be done carefully. First, you need to take care of hand protection. To do this, put on gloves or overalls. It will also be absolutely useful to make the handles of the instrument soft by wrapping them in some suitable material for this.
