Many Uses For T-Post Platform
Iowa inventor and engineer Charles Aldrich created a T-Post platform designed to mount on top of metal T-posts. The platform makes it possible to securely attach sprinklers, birdhouses, birdfeeders, outdoor lights, cameras, solar panels and more to the top of a post.
“I came up with the design because my brother has a garden with a sprinkler which watered sideways, so he wanted to raise the sprinkler,” explains Aldrich. “He had a fence to keep out the rabbits with T-Post fence posts, so I designed a platform that could hold the sprinkler as well as lots of other items.”
This platform is made from durable powder-coated sheet steel and should withstand the elements for years. It measures 4 by 4 in., with 5/16 holes in the corners and center that will accommodate 1/4-in. bolts, screws, hooks, wires and rope to secure it to the top of your post.
The T-Post platform sells for $14.95. It’s available for purchase from Amazon and Walmart, as well as through Aldrich’s website.
