Fences

Been on the shovel a few times fitting steel posts our kid owns an ironworking fencing company in Duky.

Get a decent grafter shovel and use postcrete to save your back and mess on the Mixs
 
Never really been into racing but I have done The Grand National a few times as my company paid for a day out.

I've ordered a bag of that mix. Cheers, mate.
 
We do it every day, if it’s a clean dig a grafter and post hole diggers will make life so much easier and keep the hole neat.

Post Crete is the way just simply fill around a 1/5 of the hole with water and add post Crete, use more water if necessary. Then use a stick to tamp down and release any air bubbles. Mix goes off in a few mins just make sure the post is straight and level before the mix starts to go off

Hopefully the posts are plumb and not level :)
 
Built a few of these over the years in hardwood and one in treated pine.
Pretty straightforward. Agree with hiring a post hole digger. Make absolutely certain posts are plumb before concrete sets.
