Ken, aka Snake Slayer, "planted" a pole today. I plant flowers, he plants poles. For a good cause of course, our satellite dish. I am glad S. Slayer was in charge because I would have just dug a small hole and put a pole in it. Not Slayer. Here is how it is done.
This is the tool you need. I call it a hole digger thing. Don't dig a hole without it.
S. Slayer is demonstrating how you put it into the ground. You push it down into the hole....
Grab a chunk of dirt and pull it out....
Then continue until you reach the depth you need...
Once you place the pole you need to pack the dirt back in. Here S. Slayer is using a large piece of wood to pack down the mud.
During the placing and packing of mud, you will need to keep making sure that the pole is level. Here is S. Slayer demonstrating how it should be done.
These are all the tools that were used to place the pole.
And here's the pole put in place. It is straight, I am was just crooked.
