Alot faster than an auger and packing bar! How about without a point on the post? Haven't found a supplier for posts with a point. I need an easier way, getting old and tired.
Saw a YouTube where a guy built one with a concrete breaker. Breaker was mounted on a I beam with hydraulic cylinder to push breaker. Would just need auto plumb function.

Rob, have you thought about a two-way bucket for non-forestry uses, such as pictured in the following?

A childhood friend is the inventor. They are easy to build (just one bend). The only use-restriction is that pounding with them will warp them.

Hmmm that's interesting, never seen one! It would actually work great on this machine as it's got a lot of pushing power with the stick cylinder configuration.
