I can't believe it. I had a t-post I'd pounded in very deeply to hold a bee house thing in my garden. I dug and dug and pulled and pulled and couldn't get it out (well, I'm under 5' and 71 years old). I got my handyman guy when he was doing something else to try to get it out, and there was just no way; he gave up after half an hour. I ordered this t-post puller and, within less than five minutes, I had that darned thing OUT! It was bent somewhat on the bottom of the post because I'd hit a tree root when I drove it. I could not believe I was able to get that thing out by myself! This post puller paid for itself on that one post. And now I've got it to help me pull out all the other posts I need to move!
Yep, discovered this tool some years ago. Made such a big difference. I got so excited I started looking all over the job site I was on just to find more to pull.
I move fences around a lot so I've got quite a bit of experience with these. I like the Tractor Supply version the best. It's made of square tube and seems to flex the least in use. There's also enough room to slide a pinch point bar into the handle for extra leverage. I keep a 4' piece of pressure treated 2x12 around to put under the base when the ground is wet or I don't want to tear up a raised bed when taking down trellises. The hook is for pulling round or square posts with a chain. Also good for pulling up tree roots.
After doing the T-post Cabbage Patch dance too many times to count (if you know you know), I saw this video and immediately hopped over to Amazon to buy one. Gotta love physics!
You can use the t post driver to pull out a t post. Flip it upside down put the opened end under one of the ribs on th t post then pull back on the post. There are videos on RUclips. I still like this tool though
I have back trouble, compression fractures, and osteoporosis, and I'm also 71 and under 5' tall. I found that the lever was at the right height for me to just lean down on top of it with my body weight...actually stretching my back out like doing a back exercise while pulling the post out. It was a snap. And my handyman couldn't get the post out, even digging around it pretty deep. I couldn't believe how well this thing worked! One of the best purchases I've ever made!@@joedevitto6113
Will this work for a 5' 2" seventy year ol' woman??? You bet your boots it will! Got mine yesterday, they even sent small lady size gloves. I just pulled 15 posts out in less than 2 hours, only 50 to go! Tip for short folks, keep the push lever just above your elbow for the first few pumps, less strain on the back.
I'm 5' and your age. I just set it so the lever was up a little higher (at an angle, not straight) and laid over the top of it with my body weight, and it was so easy! Didn't really have to use my arms at all until it was almost out.
This is amazing. i got 4 of those to dig up. this makes it so easy then . What holds these things so tight in the ground im wondering . is there cement under there or just packed in dirt they wont budge been digging 2 feet down so far.. Thanks for sharing ~
Yes this looks amazing but since I was pressed for time I came across a 2x4 that accidentally got jammed unter one of the sections protruding from the posts..I came across jamming the 2x4 under one of the knobs and how perfect as I moved the post it automatically hailed the post slower than your tool but effective and working leverage…saved myself mucho Muhla ….thank you for sharing the tool great device and the fact that the post it is NOT BENT…
I just the the post setting tool and didn't spend anymore money. Turn it upside down on the ground hooking a tooth...rock the post... this might be better if a post is root bound by a tree
This a good tool however if you have a t post driver than you have a remover..turn the driver upside down tilted toward post..push post out and put lip of driver under one of the tabs and just rock it and comes right out
Hi How I can take out a t post that only one feet out of the ground? I have the same t post puller but I don’t know how to get the t post that is always inside the ground😢

Lol. I was the same. Lol

Nice! Thanks 😊
I never thought of using it to pull small trees!! Thank you!!
I was just looking at one at tractor supply. I’ll probably take your advice

It looks pretty well built, to me. Seems to work well enough. But that realisation you had as you pulled the first post out was sublime!
It seems to be built well. It is actually quite satisfying to use this tool. 😁
Also that MJ 'hee hee' on point!
Haha. I just cam out. Couldn't help it. Lol
I bought one from tractor supply this year and am so happy with it. I don't have to wait on my husband now to help me move the t posts.
Awesome!
Was it hard to pull the lever thing i was wondering im a small guy and dont want to hurt my back again .. these things are so tight in the ground...

Dude yes! Getting one with your link now!

Um yes gonna buy one of these! I’ve got several around my property I haven’t been able to salvage yet!
It works quite well. 😁
Looks very simple to use good stuff
That looks like it works great! Thanks for the video!!
It works great. Thanks for watching.
Good to know. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
I wonder if you could put a chain around a 4 x 4 post and pull it? That would be awesome! Maybe that's want the hook is for?
I think you are correct!
Great video!
Only if you have soft soil, not clay, rocky , or roots… we can’t budge a post in Ga. And we been digging, rocking out post s for decades…
Thanks
Thank you!
I commented before watching the whole video.
cool tool!!
It is👍👍
I just the the post setting tool and didn't spend anymore money.

$50 is probably worth it. Seems a little steep. I used a block and a fulcrum with steel bar.
We need a 3yr update on this for potential buyers like me lol
if you've ever tried to pull a post by hand, you know this thing is worth a million bucks.
Love the MJ he he
Great
The chain is for round wood post
Hi How I can take out a t post that only one feet out of the ground? I have the same t post puller but I don’t know how to get the t post that is always inside the ground😢
Use a cheaper handyman jack and a piece of chain wrapped on itself
I could have used that a couple of years ago, I injured my foot digging them out
It sure is a handy tool
Didn't work worth a flip on rocky hard ground. sending it back.
You all need to buy a good handyman Jack and learn how to wrap a chain
Amazon is sold out of this puller.
We don't need no stinking directions
Lol. I looked for them I swear. 😉😉🤣
Has anybody used a post puller to pull a spindally junk sapling tree?
you need to kiss your wife for buying that for you!
