@@BacktotheBasics101 Maybe you can help me with this. I am a fisherman in Wisconsin. I am always going over or under barbed wire. The only thing I hate more than ripping my waders on the fence is getting my crotch hooked onto it. That can change my attitude towards an afternoon on the water. What is the best way to arrange a place for fishermen to cross without spending much money? Most farmers would let you do it if it doesn't cost them money or time.

Great video, informative and entertaining. I did ten years with the forest service as a Hot Shot and when we weren’t fighting fires we were putting up miles of fence. I am now helping my son with a fencing project and since I haven’t done any fencing in 25 years, I needed to brush up on the best way to put on T-post clips. One thought on safety. Much of the wire that we installed was on hilly terrain and we would need to tighten and loosen the wire as we attached to the T-posts and once or twice a year we would have a wire snap. When the wire snaps it has a tendency to want to go back to its previous shape of being on a roll which would cause it to recoil at a very fast rate in a very chaotic manor. Our safety rule around this is that we do all work possible from the back side of the T-post which adds that extra layer of protection as a snapped wire comes flying back at a high rate of speed. Fortunately we never had anyone get caught up in the wire but there were folk tales told of folks sustaining some pretty serious injuries from being on the wrong side of a fence when it snapped. I know the risk of a wire breaking when attaching clips on flat terrain is pretty low, but we would always practice that safety rule no matter what work we were doing on the fence. Just my two cents and thanks again for the great video.

Well, I really don’t have any fencing tricks/tips to pass on. I do, however, have an experience I’d like to share for anyone that isn’t too experienced in handling wire. About six weeks ago, my brother’s horses had gotten out. We found them soon enough, just a half-mile down the road. After spending a few hours trying to coax them into coming to us. Shacking a milk jug with a few rocks in it worked, to a point. I’m guessing they couldn’t smell any feed, so they turned back into a hundred acre pasture. He was already 95 degrees on a humid Texas day. After going to the Feed Store we returned hoping to find them. After 45 minuets we gave up and went back home. There they were. Relieved, we went straight to where they had gotten out. Using some dog kennel panels, we made quick work of the repair. On the last strand of wire I had to cut, in the back of the truck. I made the cut , first one strand then the second. After I cut it, the wire coiled back up and spun around into my eye. So, let this be a lesson for anyone unfamiliar with the way wire acts. It’s the little things that one must consider when working around wire that can hurt you. I’m not sure of the outcome yet, time will tell, but I can see blurry at times, but still I can see.

Great video ! However...consider using a " Golden Rod " found at local farm stores for tightening the wires. Much faster and less moving parts ! Snap snap and the wire is attached...and unhooked from the " Golden Rod " So simple ! Also.... at 1 min 26 seconds. Your end slice .....should always be moved to the center of the post as you have at 2:03 .lower wire. If the wire is off sided it will literally turn the post in the ground when its wet. and render your braces worthless. I know....you do have another adjoining fence on the other side...which prevents that mostly. Id disagree with leaving the staples loose . Its always best to use two staples per wire on the second post from the end to help hold the " pulling load " After all thats what " brace " posts are meant for. Yes its a pain in the butt to remove them to re-tighten the wires if needed...but worth it in the long run.

“Do not move the ancient landmark that your fathers have set.” The last time I helped with repairing barbed wire fence was in 1969. We used diamond willow posts because they resisted rot. We soaked other posts in bluestone (copper sulphate) . Thanks for making this video. God bless you!
