You should be able to pick one up in Connaught Gold down Deep Water Quay. I think they are open today (Sunday) until 16.00hrs.

Looked in NCF there and they have 1 left asking 70 euro for but it looked like it has been used afew times, thought It was a bit rich asking full price on a used item.So if anybody hear or knows where to get a post driver in sligo or in the surrounding counties I would be gratefull thanks:D

May be try a local engineering firm. All they are is a length of box / pipe of with a plate welded on top and two handles..would not take more than 20 minutes to cut and weld up...worth a try maybe?

good idea eire-hk. Would anybody know any sound welders in need of a bit of work?

Do a search on amazon.co.uk for "fence post driver". There is a Silverline one there for £43.50, with free delivery to Ireland.

Would a sledge hammer not do?
