Where was your 8"block for the end of 2x4?

Silly

Be careful of using this method if you have water pipe, like irrigation system nearby. If the areas are only having post, there are much easier to be removed with this method or others.

Excellent content, thank you. Would love to see the creek bed in action during a rain

You could have just attached the top of the post to a Land Rover with a tow rope and towed it out.

This was a total waste of seven minutes. Wake up guy

What in the hell is that tie job. Jeeeeeesus

Duh! Slide the two by four and go the other way!!!🤔

It would have came out if you detached the fencing first.

If you would extend the 2x4 about 2 feet beyond the fence post, it seems to me , that you would have much more leverage to remove it.

So that's how the aliens do it 👽

Isn't the 4x4 base overkill? Wind does not seem to be any threat with the screen and it being attached to the house.

Thank you so much. Before I watch your video I had dug for an hour and still had not hit the bottom. After that I watched two videos yours and a guy who used a chain and a bottle neck jack. After watching your video I decided to go with yours because we had ratchet straps in my truck and tons of 2x 4s pn the property. I had my 13-year-old watch the video and then he got excited and got the ratchet straps. He had the t-post and cement out of the ground in about 15 or 20 minutes. I'll post it on my Facebook and RUclips pages so that you can watch it. BIG THANKS!!!

Awesome! Thank uou. Im on it now.

My sagging fountain base is tilted, I think I am going to use that 2x4 to make it level again, using leverage. I think I will need a 2x4x12 ti accomplish my project.

Wrap screen material around catio to keep out bugs.

GREAT VIDEO.

Definitely impressive for first time

Looking back at this, I should have extended the wire frame to the base, with the initial build. Added strength. But now, it doesn't matter.

Just use your hydraulic jack

Other ideas for the dirt part of your catio floor: herbs, low carpet thymes, any cat friendly ground cover that won't seed and invade your lovely lawn. Elfin thyme is very dense and soft and would cover well so that dirt wouldn't be tracked in to the house.

p.s. cats seem to Love laying on the faux grass and it would match your gorgeous lawn but I don't know about ease of cleaning etc. Awesome job. I am eager to see your new screened patio too.

I'm so sorry that it was harder than you planned and hoped for it to be but Wow (I had to say wow again)! 😊

Wow, you are Incredible!! Smart, inventive, persistent and plucky!!! 😊 I hope you are impressed with yourself and give yourself a nice treat. Lol. Wow.

Screw that. I would rather push down using fulcrum action.

Great job,a lot of work done well and I know your cats are worth it ,would love to see them in it and your new porch ,your property is beautiful

SPOILER ALERT! I think it was too tall because the back of the Catio was taller than than the front, sloping for rain. Just like the soffits. So pulling it out made the soffits bend upwards when removing it. To get it back under, this was the right move.

Clearly, you need to make the short end of your fulcrum farther away from the post

I know a guy who will remove it for 20 bucks,, while watching him, i enjoyed a beer. just saying.

GREAT. I wish I had the strength to do that.

Your baseboard Has to be far enough away from the post so it’s not on the concrete that you’re trying to lift up

Like to havel seen concrete stump removal

Thank you for a great idea. I suppose, that using a car jack under short end would help dramatically))

6-9” away from making this much easier

Great start they just never taught you the second step. After the first lift you raise the height of the fulcrum and lift again. That is how a mechanical jack works. On the down stroke the fulcrum is being raised and then latches there.

Good job!!

There are a lot of comments on here giving advice on how to improve the method. And I appreciate all of them. I was having tunnel vision. I needed the fence posts removed quick, and I just followed the video I watched. I didn't think about how to improve along the way. I mean the method worked the first time, the day before this, so I didn't mess with success. Never thought I'd be approaching 250,00 views almost 2 years later. Thanks to everyone.

Where is the original video?

Seems like you should have had your small 2x4 further out it would have lifted straight up.

Thank You for sharing! Amazing

This is such the hard way, just put a "I hate Trump sign on it" .. and in that redneck state you are in some rednecks will come with a chain and a pickup truck and in the morning you will have it removed.

Better to use a spare tire and rope attached to a vehicle and it will pull straight up.

Would have just back my car over that.

Use two pivots put one on both sides and rock it out, the initial block like you have then on lift side place a concrete block or larger block once you have clearance, then push down on the lever and add block to far side , repeat as needed, less strength and struggle needed.

Another idea is to hire a couple high school kids to dig it out. 😂😉

If do right no can defense

Sitting in bed laughing at how all the creative ways I was going to get this fence out and here is YT with the solution. I’ll check back in to let y’all know if my project works. A little worried about it because it’s directly next to the sidewalk. The house is in DC, let’s see if it works under/next to concrete.

That’s about the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a while 😂😂😂

I been a fence guy for 30 years & it pains me to watch this.

you can do this with a bumper jack also
