Cheers I did think of that but I didn't have the bits readily available to make a strong enough a swivel... plus I was brought up with 1 of the long nodding donkey type knockers that I had to reverse up to every post so its all iv ever done.... but thanks for dropping by ....if I find any more clutter laying about I may make a swivel 1 👍
Haha yeah sorry about that...skool boy error...it does settle down after the first 30 seconds.... the hydraulic ram extends pushing the arm away from the mast of the post knocker....pulling on the rope which in turn lifts the Weight...then let the ram pressure go....and the weight drops hitting the post...just like many other machines the same but I guess you will have seen these in action...anyway thanks for dropping by....👍
Well done as long as it does the job and no sore backs it looks good and you have still money in your pocket keep up the good work
Thanks pat... its certainly had some use....just wish the fence posts had been better 10 yrs ago....utter rubbish..👍
Great job! 👍
Cheers certainly comes in handy 👍
I like that the only upgrade I'd do is make a pivot to make it side mounted

A great job - that’s given me inspiration to make one now. Just need the time lol.
Cheers, nice of you too say... it was just the need for somthing to do my job that pushed me on....good to be able to do your own work when you want👍

Just done over a kilometer of fencing this winter myself.... believe me...I have certainly seen plenty of it working the past 3 months...🙈😂😂
Good job bud
Interesting. Why would you film this all sideways.:(
Sorry it was all a bit new too me at the time just learning as I went ... its how I learn mostly.....🙈🤣
Can't see how the mechanism works. Got too dizzy trying to move my head to follow the camera lens. Good post knocker.
