I love a man who thinks of all the reasons that things could go badly and builds something that prevents those things from happening. I Love the thought and experience gone into the design of it all. Counterbalance, Tool holders, Post Caps, Tilt and height control etc. Great job.

If it works here in Scotland, it'll work anywhere! Haven't seen this tidy machine before - THanks for the show.

I worked with a bloke who made a fencing machine for his dad's fencing business in Biggar, Scotland. He mounted a post driver, plough and wire spool to an arm and mounted it to the back of a tractor. It meant he could drive a post in, move forward while ploughing a trench and automatically feeds fencing into the trough (to stop animals digging or pushing under) then back filled. Driver jumps out, staples wire to posts and moves along again. He had bought an ex army 4 tonner Bedford 4x4 with the aim of mounting it all to the middle of that so there was the load bed to carry posts and wire. I know he tested the set up on a tractor but don't know if he ever figured out the mounting on the 4 tonner.

I don't care what anyone says, That sucker looks like it'd work just fine in the good ol' east Texas and west Louisiana clay. Can't afford one. Ever. But still want one.

What a fascinating man with an equally fascinating brainchild that he has developed. That was a very good watch. And wonder of wonders: Alan speaks!!!!

Brilliant design and invention. If it works in Scotland, it'll work anywhere 👍😀

My Sergeant in the British Army sounded exactly like the old Scot - Would listen, but then explain why you are wrong - ONCE - after that point if you didn't do it the way explained, he'd kick your arse. Great man, wonder where he is now.

Best post knocker ever made.

I've always said that it's simple ideas that are true genius! The engineering is complex as are the machines themselves but the idea is simple but genius.

The best post chapper on the world market

That man knows what he is talking about,

Mr j. Bryce is a legend and a genius used to love cracking on to him at the Highland show on his stand opposite the foresty arena, keep up the great work💪

Awesome guys ! glad to see your are distributor, I bought a Bryce HD 2 with rock spike in the spring if 2021 when I am ready to upgrade I will be calling .

The machine I never knew I wanted

I love the fact that the machines are so well optioned for lunch carrying. It's a consideration that seems to be forgotten so often these days but, as my grandmother said to me: An army marches on its stomach. (She made sure I had my lunch with me in the morning every day well into her 90's)

It may work in the Ozark mountains, I just want to SEE it ! Part of my land is rocks piled on rocks, from softball to volkswagon size.

Fences must be a BFD in Scotland. Cool machines. I love your attitude about the fact that this only works on Scotish island ground. You're exactly right. You gotta trick them know-it-alls.

Fascinating stuff, great video!

Wow, congratulations on becoming a Bryce Suma agent, that could be life changing for you. Best of luck

That's brilliant.

Love a well thought out machine like that!

A Very impressive machine

That self drive is super impressive

Couldn’t help but notice the U-clamps on the rope, that holds the driver weight (16:00). In the US, we always attach those the other way around. The adage we learn, to help you remember which way they go is: “Never saddle a dead horse.” They had the saddle on the dead end of the line for both clamps. 🤷‍♂

Looks like a lovely bit of kit - too much for our little farm but if I was a contractor - I'd have one of these

Love the coat hooks!👌👌

Ive drove a lot of rail road ties for cattle corals. And I got to say that looked like it was pushing a hot knife through a stick of butter.

Well done!👏☘️👍

I want one of these!!

well done awesome

Yup that will work in most countries I work in....not sure of desert heat or sub zero temps, but that goes with any machine

Now that man how knows his job and needs to be promoted and advertised.

Quality machine & people. Wish I could finance one

This is great. You fellas need to check out the post ramming equipment coming out of NZ

Bad ass !!!

I want one of every model😅

I want to see you try pounding posts here in the Miami area or the keys. I saw that guy years back with a post pounder on some kind of dozer type crawler.

Well said hdc

No pissing around with them wee fence posts over there, just drive a telephone pole in the ground. Nice concept for making life easier. Around here you may have to change out the hammer(s) to get more than 2' into the ground before you hit bedrock.

is the post cap forged or cast? he said both and they are completely different things.

Peer lad canna see the hills for his cap peer loon

Is there a cup holder for the Irn-Bru.

Mark mentioned on the live another channel you guys had. What is the channel name? Thank you!🇺🇸

1:30 - Yeah, yeah - but where is the Irn Bru cup holder?

Watch out for splinters or other crap off the post bottoms :S

Jocks theory about hammer weight is only right to certain extent. Less strokes does = less wear. However the extra weight creates wear of it own on pulleys pins bushes and swivel. Also upsets the balance on the track machine as base unit is fairly light weight. On steep rough terrain that extra weight is a disadvantage. For proper hard ground on a regular basis and easy terrain the 500kg is ok but anything else 400kg is more than plenty. The top of post will burst at same point regardless of weight. Also the automatic telemast as he says gives you full height every time but it doesn’t give you the versatility of manual telemast. The solotrak for example will drive a post in below ground level when lowered yet take a 14ft post when raised. And can also be raised or lowered to creep under branches etc. I’ve worked both machines and personal preference is solotrak. Both have pros and cons. Solotrak carries it posts on centre of machine making it more stable has post driver hanging out back which can make it rear heavy. Bryce has post driver positioned on centre but posts way out front. Again my preference is solotrak as you can tilt post driver forward to transfer weight to a certain extent. But on bryce you can’t move post loading area. Solotrak also has netting tensioner which is a massive plus. Both fantastic machines though both designed and built by very practical and intelligent men who were fencers through and through before going into world of post driver building. If you get the chance try both before purchasing because there really will be one that suits you and your terrain better than the other.

@18:50.....never saddle a dead horse.

Uniwide drilling British Columbia Canada has hammer drill

I want one: in Canada.

looks like the sort of machine the US Police would use to break into a SWAT situation with !

Guys idk if that'll work in my area.. sand+ heavy hitter.. I mite drop it once on a pipe and have a waterwell 10ft deep😂😂

Should work anywhere gravity is available.

Digging holes or driving posts...much better

Does it come with a down hole hammer option? We need a machine that can do everything Downhole hammer, auger, pounder, barbed wire runnings of 3, bottom wire, even a mesh and or cement hog be sweet if it could roll out mesh like our attachment for the excavator.. The job we are on is hell, that machine is like our nodwell with a spinning body but all you need to do is turn the seat around that's pretty cool. You think that machine can handle Terrain like this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l9aoksems7vWdZs.html this place takes the tracks off like it's nothing it looks like there is dirty but it's really rock right on the ocean so we use auger first to get what we can get then we come back with the down hole hammer and get 3-4 ft in solid rock.

So let me get this straight… it has a dinner plate made out of carburetor steel and a crumb vandalism shaft. Together they imitate a slow motion wood pecker. This results in a utility pole driver that isn’t tall enough to get to the top of a telephone pole to start with. Or, iffen you put a plumb-bob on it… you can peck out a square hole to put a round peg in the ground. Did I miss something? 🤔

Everything but an idea of home much it would cost

first. i love the content

where's the numbers $$$$

Won’t work where I’m at, we don’t have gravity or an atmosphere.

Your Wyoming Sasquatch could pick you AND the pole up from the ground. 🤭

great video...nice work SWI

do you have them to fit up to Skid Steers ??

so are you saying we should move to Scotland?.........LOL
