Fencing help needed Sunday 10th Nov near Castleton

[Pete K]

DCA have a little fencing job to do on Sunday the 10th Nov near Castleton. Last time I tried to knock in 8 posts with a post basher solo in a day I could not grip anything properly for over a week. If there is anyone keen to help us with a bit of manual labour for an hour or two and can meet at 10am, drop me a message and I'll send over the details. Cheers.

What diameter posts are you using, I have a petrol post knocker if you want to borrow that, it suits 3" round posts best

I think they are 3" or 3.5" dia, nothing huge. We need to put in 10 posts all together. I've never used a petrol post knocker and can't quite picture how that works, but if it makes the job easier and we can conveniently get and return it to you then I don't see why not. We're replacing the fence around a shaft near Dirtlow, so it's not too far to carry anything heavy from the gravel track.

Thanks Mark, we'll be in touch later today

Mark, that post basher was excellent. Thanks so much for the loan of it today, we'd have stood no chance finishing the fence without it. I might even get DCA to buy one if we keep getting fencing jobs.

 

[Mark]

They are about £1750.00 to buy, I have 2 so you can borrow one when ever you need to

 

[Pete K]

Ouch, maybe not then! Thankyou again and I'll be in touch if we need to do another fence sometime. If we owe you anything for fuel just shout and I can sort an expenses claim for a can's worth.

Does a smart job when paired with the right team.
Good effort

Can they be used for bashing in the base of promising shakeholes?

Nice work, it's slightly less of a hazard now...
