Building Safe Fencing For Horses - Part 4

[@danielcadnum7214]

Dewayne, thank you! I’ve learned so much more about fencing and even more about life watching an hour of your videos. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing and “God bless you and your family!” 😊

[@slo8432]

I'm a big fan of your Chanel! You are very wise men! Grettings from Slovenia

There is no better trait for a man or woman than for it to be said that they left their home, land, equipment and family in better shape than he found it. That makes this world a better place to live. It’s rewarding to do a job & know you didn’t take the short cut and did it right. What you leave behind says a lot about who you are.

[@SammyFender]

I’m 66 and as I listen to you explain kind of simple logical things like how you have to learn basic skills, I think, “well, obviously” But as I look at some of our young people I understand.. it’s not obvious. I had to bully my sons to learn skills but I’m sure glad I did

[@laurenw1168]

Bummer that you had to bully your sons for that. Please don't think that's how all younger people are because a generational divide like that can be hard on peoples' relationship with another generation. Some of us have good work ethic and work hard daily to learn new skills and refine our current skills. I appreciate people in every generation who are willing to share skills for things that just didn't run in my family, but that I do now, like putting up good fences.

Working on my first fence with 6” cedar poles, your advice and wisdom have been good company for the last few weeks. Hello from northern Michigan!

[@michealsmith28]

Man you get to play with all kind of cool stuff that thing that dig the hole I want to see that.

[@mikewatkins1197]

Your series on saddles was very enlightening. Thanks

[@emersontayten]

Haha. I saw that furthest pole back and said, hey, it's not plumb...then the video began. Keep up the good work 💪🏿

[@jpthrift9210]

You’re getting the place looking good for sure sir. That will be a nice fence.

[@scotmockup]

Great fence & life lesson.

[@twwtb]

Nice delicate work with the chainsaw.

[@lorenlieder9789]

Looks great Dwayne !! Looks like you will have a nice place to slow life down a little and get ready for future retirement.

[@Sl33PYxTiiM]

It was great seeing how that worked with the saw and the hammer. Thanks

[@Hugo.345]

Great videos, really loving and appreciating the tips, advice and philosophical talk about life and stuff! Looking forward to more of that!

[@MrBearbait75]

I agree do (build, etc) it right the first time! Thanks for enlightening those that don't know or understand that.

[@WiscoMike]

Another good job, Dewayne.

[@tedsemonis7905]

liquid creosote Is to seal the ends of cut on the posts. You cut the ends straight so water can sit on the tops. In all the older fences that you have seen they rot from the top (same as telephone/power poles) sealing the cut ends can keep them in better shape longer. And putting a slight slope on the tops will allow the water not tp pool on the top as much. That is a task after the fence is built. You want a 100-year fence.

[@garyb4929]

Dwayne,, Thats exactly how i grew up building Brace post for fencing. Though, for many year, used small Cross cut limb saw for notching out . Expect you just got some of the bad weather , I was receiving yesterday. Hope it didn't hinder things too bad.

[@kurtreinhardt6789]

Fence is looking great Dwayne

[@littlefoot7383]

It might sound odd, but I was watching one of your other videos where you were smoking a cigar, and I think an idea for a video could be you just smoking a whole cigar and giving your thoughts and philosophy on things. Edit: It would be a long video and that would be the point. I'm a young guy and hearing your thoughts and philosophy is quite valuable to me because I didn't grow up in the ranching, cowboy life. And if it's valuable to me then it's probably gonna be valuable to other young ladies and fellas. Just a thought. I hope you and yours have a blessed day.

[@stevebrough304]

Nice work. Is there more videos for this project? When you drill and lag them together you've probably got cordless tools. Hopefully I find the next video, part 5 soon.

[@bhensel100]

Ive seen where they put a 3/8 or 1/2 inch rebar in place of the moly bolt. The cross wires hold it together and rebar, cheaper than moly bolts, hold it from sliding out of the notches.. Regardless, great job building the fence and you're right. If it's done correctly, it will last a lot longer than something throw up quickly with the attitude that I'll build something better when I have time. We all know that never happens

[@tomahawk1911]

Looks good and stout, Duane. Good advice about the lumber type/shape.

[@michealsmith28]

And you're doing all that by yourself, wow Superman don't have anything on you.

[@alanblyde8502]

Nice work mate, hi from downunder 🤙🇦🇺

[@shaunroberts9361]

Good job Duane for sure.

[@KA-qw5cv]

Sometimes it pays to know how to properly dig a hole by hand too. We have a place that wou.d take a heavy duty auger to get through (caliche - very hard, compacted soil; rental is about 3 hours away, so that doesn't help). A person with a good digger bar, that knows how to make it work most efficiently, can break through & get a hole dug. Me spouse & I dug over 30 holes, two foot deep by 16-18 inches wide, using a digger bar. Your fence is going to nice and sturdy!

[@dougwatt6780]

Reminds me of the Red Steagall song "The Fence That Me and Shorty Built"

[@Ericksonearthworks]

I still wanna see a Dwayne every day carry video what’s a real cowboy rancher carry with him every day.

[@thomasalicea8877]

I agree I work wrangling all yr mostly about horses but I have learned about everything. Got about 40 horses shod under my belt still learning

[@Jules-fh4rf]

Good for you! Just remember you never stop learning🤗

[@bostarbird5282]

30 or 40 years from now someone can ask your grandkids what kind of a man was your Grandpa and they can show them the fence and they will know. Your work says something about you.

[@BuckJones1909]

I’m about to do wood fencing, but for my two dogs so it’s significantly lighter work! Similar process though! I really enjoy your channel!

[@davidgregg2778]

I like how you are notching your brace posts and using the molly screws . I have used rebar or even bars from old wheel rakes . How deep are your posts in the ground ?

[@douglaschaney7487]

I'm a 73 year old who spent 24 years in residential construction, mostly remodels and second story additions. Through the years as a carpenter/laborer, foreman, superintendent and general contractor I always had one question for my employees/sub-contractors, "Why is there never enough time to do it right the first time, but always enough time to do it over later?" If you're behind schedule are you willing to take on volunteers? I'm in Los Angeles, but my cousin and her husband recently retired to Minor Hill, TN from San Diego. They are close and I'd be willing to broach the subject with them.

[@beeamerica5024]

So what you're saying Dwayne is in order to be a good cowboy you got to be a jack of all trades master of none of course I knew that there's a fella in Alabama got a channel called Jeff Barron you need to look him up he's a wizbang always building something and good too 🐝

[@michealsmith28]

You are so cool I wish you were my dad.

[@geneenchase3553]

Oh boy. More rain coming!

[@tracer0017]

Is this the last video on the new fence? I am looking to do my first fence and found this interesting and helpful

[@TMats100]

So you’ve done this before 😉 Don’t know if you, or your followers, have ever had drill stem pipe available, but it sure makes a great horizontal for an H-brace.

[@garyb4929]

That is does.

[@davebrooks2942]

Really enjoy your videos even if I am a little jealous of you and Mama

[@robsmart5843]

Great video series on fence building! I have a question. How deep are the post holes for your corner brace posts?

[@DryCreekWranglerSchool]

I normally try to go 36 inches. A couple of these post in this Tennessee lime stone ground I was only able to get about 30 inches

[@robsmart5843]

@@DryCreekWranglerSchool same here. Great minds think alike!

[@gcobbethc]

Wait, where are the rest of the videos? Would you please post the rest of this series?

[@bobogilvie4472]

I try to with most things in life.

[@michealsmith28]

What you doing that for.

[@OneBrightLightTN]

What is your opinion on electric fencing for horses? Is there a reason you chose twisted wire of electric?

[@comesahorseman]

👍👍

[@michealsmith28]

Can't you get down in your back from carrying that don't they have some kind of machine.

[@bhagmeister]

Fly straight. Build level. Check.

[@cyndibrealty]

Where is the next video in the series?

[@buffranchAB]

Now is this a horse fence or a rhino fence ?

[@gerhardvanwaltsleben8944]

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

[@oosthuizen2012]

Meme? You say this on every video this man makes

[@christianweatherbroadcasting]

Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way. We deserve Hell because we've sinned. Lied, lusted stolen, etc. But God sent his son to die on the cross and rise out of the grave. We can receive forgiveness from Jesus. Repent and put your trust in him. John 3:16 Romans 3:23😊❤😊❤
