Why did you spend time pulling out the old posts if you were going to dig new holes?
@MakerGray36 минут бұрын
Because I was reusing the same fence line. Needed the old posts out of the way.

You can buy prefabbed fencing nowadays. It's not expensive to build a regular fence.

The prefab fencing panels I saw in person were badly built.... and I didnt want a regular fence. I wanted an awesome fence. Built right.

Wow that looks awesome. Expensive though even doing it yourself. When we put our fence in we used galvanized poles. It is time for us to replace the wood part of our fence. We are thinking about using Trek Deck board to match our deck and to never have to replace it again. Our deck looks as good as the day we installed it 24 years ago. Any thoughts or ideas about using decking instead of cedar post?

Easier to hold the post plumb and pour the dry concrete into the hole just enough to hold the post. Then you can get it perfect and pour the rest of the concrete in. Much faster and easier!!

Post Saver Sleeves are the way to make your post last. The moisture, bacteria/ enzymes just eat up an unprotected post.

The anti-sag gate kit is nice 'n all.....but us old timers out here in the country would just cut a piece of lumber & just miter it to be installed low on the hinge side....see pic.....'bout 40-50 bux cheaper....might need a turnbuckle years down the road when things have "settled" a bit....that goes high on the hinge side images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56341c80e4b077946fd1bff4/1446564399090-JE941L7GZWOGH81I943G/image-asset.jpeg i.ytimg.com/vi/lfZJ5x2qJ3U/maxresdefault.jpg

@ 7:25 ----> at the left corner & just to the right of the gate....why are those lower horizontal supports higher than all the rest?
@MakerGray7 сағат бұрын
The ground elevation changes. The supports had to raise slightly down the line to accommodate the elevation change.

I don't understand why people choose to use wood posts. They are just going to bow in just a couple years time and rot out in a few years.

Hey guys, hope your having a great day. I just wanted to say I build fence and I saw the fence video and seen the post removal with the truck. Sometimes you can’t use a truck because you don’t have room or whatever. I use a “ un live yourself “ ( sorry, KZbin tends to get upset when you use certain words or terms ) jack to remove posts. Works great! Keep up the good work!

Shouldn’t the brace on the gate go from the bottom of the hinge side to the top on the handle side?

No, this is a tension brace (not compression)

Just set PVC 4/4 into ground 2' with a couple inchs above grade, place the stones in the PVC before you place 4/4 post, never rot's, you can weed eat with no damage

I’m sure somebody could have used the old fence panels. I usually donate stuff like that to the habitat for humanity re-store. I hate when stuff like this ends up in the landfill and shouldn’t. I definitely think Paying $180 to dispose of the old fence was crazy.

My neighbor put in a new fence and did it himself in an interesting (i thought) way. He dug the post holes and put in some kind of cardboard tube and filled the tube with concrete. The concrete extended above ground level. He then set a metal bracket on the concrete and attached it with masonry screws. He attached the post to the bracket on top of the concrete. I asked about it and he said he did it that way so that when the fence breaks down he can easily replace individual components or simply replace one section at a time as the fence needs repair. I thought this was brilliant.
@MakerGray7 сағат бұрын
I do like that! I actually thought about that method but for a fence this size, I don't think the posts are quite as strong. Placing them in the ground 2-3 feet gives them much more strength. But for a smaller fence, I think the method you described is great!

could instead plant your fence and garden at the same time by planting trees/shrubs that grow very close together like thuja green giant trees or evergreen privacy shrubs/trees

Look up " steel chain injuries" and that will be the last time you use a chain. Several people have died from doin that very same thing. Should always use a heavy duty nylon strap instead. Much safer
