Sounds like an ideal case for a self gripping puller based around a two spring loaded quadrants, like two giant opposed STEIN adjustable rope grabs. Drop them over the post and lower till the cams are apart, then lift so they self grip, pull the post. To eject crowd forward and lower simultaneously.

 

I dit think you would need the spring pieces or  anything  just a c shape of the thick metal welded to a headstock mount with the inner c  slightly bigger than the posts 

Drive up to post so the c shape is nextto post turn wheel so post enters the c crowd back and the post be gripped lift post out ground uncrowd and post will become loose 

 

Like how a formwork pin puller works

Simpler is better to my mind

Got a new flight for the auger. 150mm tungsten tip. Have it out tomorrow hopefully.

Auger out today. Augertorque x2500 with 450mm flight.

Moving lumps of ash for Tree Care Company with my new 6.3+ today. Enjoying being back working with trees.

Nice day for it!

[Blake@waveney]

Yep a cracking day. Luckily not as hot as yesterday and had a lovely breeze.

Put the new temporary road into use today, MO was paying its way, turning a two day job into a days work.

What sort of money for the tracks?  I suspect you could claw some of it back hiring them out too?

[Mick Dempsey]

A grand for 22 of them at 3 meters by half a meter so can get 31 meters across a lawn.

 

I can’t sleep at night when people borrow my stuff, so it’s unlikely to be hired out.
