Your a bloody good fencer mate enough said

[@and11rew09]

Brilliant videos mate. Very useful tips

[@drewmoetu3440]

should have footed it before stapling wires on to post would have been a lot easier.

[@MrBandogs]

could use a 17ft post?

[@daveashton7201]

Depends what type of treatment the wire has. You can also attach the wire above ground by using a longer foot if so desired. The principles are still the same.

chris it is an anchor like chunk of timber that helps keep the post from lifting. what id like to know is now that its 2016 and this was done in 2011, is the post still in the ground?

[@buckranch1216]

If you want a Foot that can be driven and out last the timber posts Check out (Fencing Post Foot Agriculture NZ)

[@ryan77790]

odd way too do things to me not how we do foots looks like it still works though

[@fridunanti]

Hi, I have no idea how this foot works! A drawing of it would be much much better.

[@ryan77790]

and jeguim123 this could possibly be the boundary fence thats why its not hot and has 9 wires + makes it more stock proof

[@moby0071]

OK for a start this wire is top quality fuck ma n the wire will never rust will last for a 50+ yrs and the footing he used works just like an anchor it keeps the post from lifting up out the ground when under strain. Oh yes an how do I know well I was born in new Zealand , land of the best fencer's in the world .

[@luciogallardo4141]

OWESONE great fencing skills

[@anaphylastiks]

How does the wire attached to the foot work? Why is it strained upwards? I would just hire a post hole borer and chuck some quickset in.

[@marcuscleveland5212]

The wire is attached to one end of the foot, so when the post tries to pull it out the ground it just rotates the foot slightly, jamming it even more firmly into the ground. The wire to the foot is under tension which stops the post lifting.

Kind of talking and instructing everyone through the video would have been really helpful. Not everyone knows what's going on in that video and when you are giving a tip it's best to talk through it if you can or voice over it.!

[@rescuecow90]

What happens when the wire rots? It will rot quick because of being in contact with the ground.

[@DWFencing]

rescuecow90 it’s stainless steel, lasts a long time in the ground even in coastal conditions

[@alisterjohnston3671]

That's stainless steel wire staples will rot out first

[@timbrown7368]

Galvanizing reacts with stainless, will rust out really quickly.

Barbarous rough job

[@gerrycoleman7290]

A horrible kind of fence if horses are being contained.

[@Otokastation1]

I agree. The aim here though is to have a cost effective fence, fit for purpose and to contain sheep and cattle. If I were building a fence for horses I would rather it didn't have wire.

[@todlindley8101]

Knock em in with a 20 ton excavator, god its rapid !! n they don't come loose !!

[@joedoakes8307]

The wire may never rust , but those wooden posts will ROTT off at ground level due a constant level of moisture in the ground !

[@Dollapfin]

joe doakes it dries up in the summer there. I myself would've chosen a better post but whatever.

[@abbo3272]

posts are ground treated H4last 40-50 yrs.

[@joedoakes8307]

I hope you're correct , but , the only 40-50 year wooden posts I've seen(USA) are old telephone poles that have a much higher level of preservative that were cut into fence corner posts ,etc . They resemble RR ties(wood) that have been given the same level of preservative and last for many , many years !

[@abbo3272]

@@joedoakes8307 I have used , telephone poles, 12 ft, for strainers, that have rotted out from the centres, my cattle yard posts, same, used railway ties, ok, but in New zealand, H4, GT.posts, used from late 60s, i used hundreds, in the 80s on my farm, still okay.

[@maccaspope2275]

@@joedoakes8307 Modern posts might only last 30-40 years (bit hard to tell at this stage), but plenty of old posts still going in this country. There's still old totara posts 60-80 years old still solid as
