Adjustable square post driver assembly

A post driver assembly for driving a post comprising a grip retainer plate having a rectangular plate hole centrally located in the plate which is oversized compared to an outside dimension of a square post, a post driver wedge having a wedge face for flush engagement with an outside surface of a post when said post driver wedge is telescoped through said plate hole, said post driver wedge having a tapered side opposite to said wedge face slidingly engageable with an edge of said plate hole for ensuring snug engagement of said wedge face against said post, and screw means threaded through said wedge for attaching said wedge to said post to resist vertical slippage of said wedge relative to a wooden post, a wedge face of said wedge having vertically spaced transversely extending grooves providing vertically spaced transversely extending post gripping edges for biting into a wooden post to resist slippage as a sledge hammer is impacted against the wedge, said screw means is threaded through said wedge beneath said plate, the wedge having a smaller width than the rectangular plate hole thus enabling the wedge to be rotated on said screw means while lying in said rectangular plate hole to assist in restoring a post being driven into an upright position, said post driver wedge has an enlarged head at an upper end, said head having an inclined upper wedge driving surface.
