Great video love your enthusiasm it makes for an even better video.
A tool dude wearing Crocs? Seriously?
Good video though. Thank you for posting.
Well Tony, after waiting for over a year on several friends promising me to
install a new mailbox post, after watching your video, I did it my
self!!!!! Thanks for the step by step instructions. Other than digging that
hole, it was pretty easy. Thanks for sharing.!!
so awesome. thanks!
great channel name too
Plastic construction will not last over the years, the sun will destroy it
in no time. The only thing I like is the post digger, where can I get one
of those?
+hucker75 Seems like a stupid reason to live in a country with some of the
worst weather on the planet, among other issues…but have fun with that
immigration problem, I will walk to my mailbox. Have fun being lazy.
Very helpful video. Just a tip for some of you putting up a mailbox, I
would recommended Fast 2K Demonstration Video. It’s a lot faster and easier
than concrete. Hope it helped some of you!
I like plastic mailboxes better than metal mailboxes on wooden posts. one
day, i am going to move to Los Angeles California, and i am going to buy me
a house online with 1 living room, 1 kitchen, 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, a
hallway closet in between the bedroom and bathroom, a clean basement, a
garage, a fenced backyard, and berber carpeting through out the entire
living room, hallway, and bedroom, and i am going to buy a plastic mailbox
that opens on both ends and put it on the other side of the sidewalk next
to the drive-way!
darn I just put in my post into the concrete and when I got in to see the
next part of this video I realized I got the wrong post. I got the one that
has the ledge on it. Maybe I should just chainsaw it off? I got the same
exact mailbox as you too lol
So dude, I caught the small decorative flag in your front yard at the
beginning of the vid; where in Nebraska are you from? I’m from Fremont.
Thanks for the vid, it was informative and entertaining. Take care
You can’t find your ho? Did you check the kitchen?
Great video, Tony! Ours is worn and needs replaced badly. After this video,
I know I can do it myself. Thanks!
They have them on Amazon. Thanks for asking.
Also, how long do you let the cement sit for before putting the mailbox on
the post?
All your neighbors still watering the grass in the middle of November? Some
people forget all about winter time. I enjoy the shows Tony
Good idea, Roberto. Thanks
Love the post hole digger. So much better than the clam shell type. The
only thing those are good for are busting up your fingers.
was that a 5 ft 4×4?
Nice job and very informative. Thanks
Like the stupid fucking neighbors always blocking it.
Great video I enjoyed the process. Entertaining opening.
Hey Zesty, It’s a 6″ post. 2 feet of it are buried in the hole.
Can you pour the dry concrete into the whole then add water or is premixing
better?
Manny, There is a type of concrete that works like that. But most require
mixing. Check the packages and get the type you want. Thanks
thanks for this… gotta put one in today
really informative & entertaining …thx
How long you wait depends on the concrete. Typically you could begin work
in 2 to 3 hours. Just go easy and try not to move the post. Thanks
Thanks for posting this vid Tooldude. After watching this I was inspired to
go install my own mailbox. (been down for 4 days) I was going to wait for
some help but I said this looks easy enough so thanks!
You can rent post hole diggers for a few bucks a day.
