METAL PRIVACY FENCE INSTALLATION - CUSTOM REPLACEABLE PICKET DESIGN

[@Ruben901]

It has to work Austin.....because, you built it 👍

[@arosswelding]

I sure hope it does and lasts forever. Time will tell I guess

@@arosswelding Well anything can get modified, thats the good thing about fabrication 🤷‍♂️

[@mattdougherty3322]

It’s awesome to watch a craftsman enjoy and take pride in his work. Great job, thanks for sharing!

[@ChristopherSalisburySalz]

Absolutely love the fence design! The main structure is metal so it will always be straight and strong. The wood slats look good and can be easily replaced. Great job!

I used to be a boilermaker 25 plus years ago, became an accountant. You sir just got me buying a stick welder again.

[@deltan9ne306]

Hacks leave slag on their welds. If you're not cleaning your welds, that means you're not inspecting them or putting 100% into your trade. Fence is looking great!

[@treeamigo8447]

It's a fence lol

[@bigwhisky4676]

Let me tell you little brother you are a bad ass pipeline welder that is doing some awesome welding in between to make ends meet, it will come around again I have faith, God bless you.

[@lukedeatley9480]

Good looking fence man that’s a sharp look for sure

[@carpenterdom1639]

That’s quite honestly the best fence I’ve seen in a really long time dude. The fact that you can change out pickets so easy is the best part. Good call on that reinforcement tubing too

[@davetaylor4741]

Glad to see the centre rails. That is a slick looking job. Very much a welders fence and with great attention to detail. You learn on each job. Always strive for perfection and improvement. Nice to see a tradie taking pride in their work.

[@smallsofty1884]

You changed it up . You just rig welding . I hope you go back to pipe line work . Your videos have been so helpful. Keep up the good work man !

[@MetrologyEngineer]

I agree Austin, I think it looks stupid when there are a bunch bb's by your weld if they are painted.

[@RedNineAu]

Laser level solves the sagging string problem.

[@tubeonline629]

Man those 5/8" pickets warp and twist like the devil, I hope this works out for ya'll.

[@speedbuggy16v]

This, I built a conventional privacy fence with them, they warp all over the damn place, but the way he did it is far better than the conventional way.

[@darkwater482]

That looks great....I’m glad you put support in the middle, without it the pickets would sag and warp, maybe even enough to fall out.

[@elkvis]

That new fence looks really sharp.

Looks good!!! Easy to repair if needed but going to be very strong.

Got your ground hopper brother!!! Love it thanks

[@michaelsfabwork2985]

Great job and good looking fence. I dont trust a string line. Use a laser level or transit is the best thing but the can be pricey. Before i could afford a tool like that i would use a water level. Clear tubing with died water and a valve on the ends. Works great and easy to use plus you can make it 20ft long or longer. Look it up it might come in handy for you. Take care and keep up the good work.

[@manoloaycartg4266]

The fence came out awesome. 😉👍

I think slag is a good place for corrosion! I am a hobby weler though I've seen some good welders in my 60 yrs of oil field work!

[@johnathankerlin7444]

It all looks real good i use the same steel fence combo Except I use 1 1/2 angel for center rail this rail allows for self tapping screws to be used

[@tabcobra]

Those are the type of caps I use, they work great and one less thing to have to weld.

[@bwinford1561]

"Flood" makes several shades of stain for cedar fence. I use 'Cedar Tone" . Two coats will last 20 years. Unless their sprinkler system constantly washes the fence. The stained fence will be much more desirable than the natural aging.

[@richardflaherty2373]

Is Flood a brand name? I need to redo a small deck.

[@dennisphoenix1]

You need to make the gaps in between your posts uniform ,make up your top and bottom rails to the size of the pickets , build the fence with posts and base rails in one go ,the Base rails set the post distances correct . Then piece up to the corners.

[@centurionC100]

Austin I really learn a lot from your videos. I watched one where you were setting 5 foot tall fence posts on around a 200 foot line. I will be setting a 110 line of metal posts soon. My question is this: what kind of string line do you use for those distances that won't sag or break over that distance? Thanks.

[@littledcoffee]

Great video, Thank you. Can you tell or show how you made the top tracks?

[@TinShackVideos]

That is a good looking design... How often do you have to replace warped boards because of no center support?

[@speedbuggy16v]

Now thats a good looking fence, and strong as hell as well. I would hate to pay for all the steel though!

[@blhack123]

How do you get consistent distances between the posts? Do you have to cut all the top and bottom rails to fit without having to pull the posts out of plumb?

[@wadewittman8510]

Fantastic 👌👍🇺🇸

Thanks Wade!

No advice for the week or did I miss it, what Rods do you like using on fencing like this, I do a lot of fencing kinda like that and personal love burning 5p (6010) rods, just figured I’d ask and would potentially try a new set of rods maybe, thanks in advance

[@russelljackson7034]

Right on

[@tonewitch]

Im starting a job just like this one in my own yard and was wondering where you get the track you used for the bottoms?

[@toddjackson920]

Where did you get the top rail and bottom rail? And what are the correct names of them? There Awesome

[@brianpurrington6500]

As a carpenter, I would be concerned with the pickets warping and bowing. As a welder... NICE JOB MAN!

[@arosswelding]

I’m new to pickets/ privacy fence, do you think the middle cross members will help with this??

[@kevinsteele724]

I think there is a high chance of warping if you dont add the middle support. Unless the pickets are the higher quality thicker pickets. I'd say home depot pressure treated will in fact warp. Cedar will likely hold up better, since there will be less moisture leaving the wood.

[@brianpurrington6500]

@@arosswelding Absolutely! Great idea.

[@PaulFarrell04]

Use composite decking boards?

What rod did you use that worked best for that project and was that machine connected to 120 or 200 if you don’t mind me asking .

[@jorgeposadas1192]

I have a small welder for jobs like this, but 1 day a friend commented on it and said :what the hell do u have that for, having so many other much higher quality machines and I replied: cuz they're way too heavy to lug around for quick jobs that don't require big machines, but mine is old, it's a Lincoln 3200HD but it works great.

[@Camposj18]

Good work.. nice fence... I have a question what rod did you used?? And if you can advice me on what rods to used outside and when is windy??? Also what kind of stick rods to used when there’s paint or rust?? Or always have to clean the metal before... I don’t have experience welding outside and using stick welding but want to learn.. your advice or someone else help would make a change in my life.. thank you and keep uploading videos, nice work..

[@stanwooddave9758]

Not looking to be a Debbie-Downer, but when working with any kind of wood, you have to remember that wood expands & shrinks, depending on the weather, summer vs winter. Personally, I'd go with a minimum 1/8" in. (0.00159 m) spacing, to as much as a 1/4" in. (.250" in. / .00635 m.) If you don't allow for this, the wood will buckle and distort.

[@Ruben901]

Good note Dave, i will keep that in mind when i build my own fence 👍

Hey Austin we’re did you have your metal broke for top runners

[@thejuicyryan3273]

Hey there Austin! Love your vids. I'm currently in welding school right now in Nebraska! Your videos have made me really want to try and get into pipeline. At the end of this year, my instructor will certify us in what we want to go into. If I could get certified in 6g pipe or just pipe in general, would that get a decent head start into pipeline?

[@jaredhammonds8255]

Absolutely! 6G can land you in just about any job and is most of the time required. I'm sure you're out of welding school by now but I'll leave this here for anyone else.

[@Recedinghairline180]

Do you paint the steel after its in?

[@Chris_L034]

that style of fence will make it easier to stain both sides of it.

[@michaeltobin2014]

Hi Austin, I notice you always use “black steel” that begins to rust as soon as it gets damp, why not use galvanised steel and avert the problem?

[@bigcountry15151]

2 big reasons are the health risks of breathing the fumes and 2nd is the zinc coating on galvanized steels can compromise the weld making it weaker and also can make it look sloppy if not done correctly.

[@Mrimnotfluffy]

What measuring tape is that?
