What if it Snows?

Well, hard to handle is a concern. But the post hole, already there right were you need them, just gotta get the dirt out of them.

Another thought. I envy you on the thought of using them for post. So straight and standard size. Don't suppose you have access to a Bo Dock thicket? (Bois de Arc). Then they have to be kinda counter screwed into the ground, then the crook or curves lined up with the way the fence is to go. Usually ruin 2 or 3 staples trying to nail up the wire. Last forever. Oh, and they vary in diameter for bottom to top. So, you (get the dirt out)of a 10 inch post hole, stick the 8"end in, then fill and pack the upper 5 inch portion real tight. Daddy would come along, shake it and say: Pack the #### post son. Life was hard in MS at age 12.

 

No clue, I just see him loading/unloading at the sale barn often.

 

Thats cheap, round here it’s running 4.19.

 

What is a field technician?

 

They used to run all of the fuel and electrical systems on some pads for drilling, they also had personnel who were mud loggers (testing what comes out of the hole for various things before it went across the shakers), pulling fluid off pads that still have some flowback operation, etc... Really it depends on what the company who owns the pad are paying for as it can vary.

 

I remember being up on the floor watching guys trip pipe and getting ready to throw my 2" iron on to run a cement job. That's 1 toy I never wanted to play with.

 

I lived in oil trough back in the 80s.
People with garmin gos still follow the old road to the abandoned ferry.
Like 6-7 mile back with signs saying road ends.
There are field roads and i have taken trucks down there to load grain.

They closed the old store at one of the 90 degree curves, was in business 99 years.
