ahhhh I miss Japan. The fiancee and I want a Japanese-style bathtub when we finally get to the point of building our own house, nothing better than a ¥100 Kumamon bath bomb bathtub soak at the end of the day. And our wedding registry is basically going to consist of the most expensive Toto toilet seat possible.

I devised a contraption to pull posts when I was rebuilding my deck and had to yank a ton of 4x4s and 6x6s out of giant mounds of cement from clay soil. The best way from what I was researching was to use a hi-lift jack, like ones used for off-roading, that was linked earlier. If you have a lot to pull, it would be worth it to drop the $60 and have the right tool. I didn't want to spend the money and used materials I had lying around and essentially created a laminated 2x10 beam with lag bolt that I hooked a come-along to. I would set this on a set of saw horses (with the feet placed on boards to distribute the load on soil), and then would drive a lag bolt into the post. It was then just winching the come-along and pulling the post and cement out. It was kinda janky but worked.
