Great job 👍, I would redo the gate like you said you should have, raise the pins hinges and add some stone underneath and maybe even up the ground on the inner side to let the gate travel both ways to make that double way lock 🔒 usable. You did an excellent job with the stock panel no one could have done a better job with it.

Good job on the fence. We used two 2x4's and bolted three bolts and sandwiched the wire in-between, I have not used the wedge woven wire stretchers before. It's hard to hang a gate on uneven ground, I've hung dozens of gates and I still issues with uneven post for gate openings. I enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing, have a nice day.

JudithB Looks great to me!! We had our 20 acres divided in quarters, with the barn lot in the middle and loading pen. It was easy to move the cows from pasture to pasture by clapping hands and calling them. We cut hay on east and west pasture, south pasture had the pond and n. pasture was a rocky mess so not much grass. After cutting hay, we let the cows in to clean the edges and any left over, then close it back up, and open the other hay field to be cleaned, then close up to grow next crop of hay. In winter, we opened one hay field at a time to graze and take pressure off south field. Worked well, and the cows had to go under bug thing passing thru the barn yard too.

Regarding that gate, on Welsh hill farms such as the one that I grew up on, what we do is hang the gate so that it is level and either put a large log underneath the gap (to stop lambs from crawling under) or for a more practical solution is to make a triangular attachment for the bottom of the gate that fills the gap and moves with the gate. Adding dirt underneath means that you create a ridge, making going in and out with a tractor more difficult. Conversely, you could dig the other side, so that if your field also acts as a hay field (for example), you have a flat surface for going in and out, meaning that wide implements do not lean to one side and hit the gate post at the top when going in and out. As you have it, you are putting too much strain on the gate attachment points as well as the post.

When you have the correct steel post at height . Put the post pounder back on , rap some paper around at the height of where the top of post inside the post pounder is spray paint the top of the pounder , this will give you the height of the post without lifting it on an off to measure !

Greetings from Australia...good job on those fences mate! I prefer to use galvanised steel strainer posts with bolt on braces for gate fittings - makes adjustments SO much easier. That said, those timber posts do look good! Seems you folk in the US use timber posts a lot more than we do here in Oz...on new fences, steel is about all you see over here. Really enjoy your vids...

Cable pullers are a loathsome invention. And cable jamming between sheave and cheeks is a hassle. Replace that "axle" pin/cotter with a bolt and Nylock nut to adjust clearance between sheave and cheek. Might prevent future jams. Good job on the fence (but I don't think I could "live with" that one gate either...)

I use 7 foot t-post on my woven wire fence installation. It is tall enough to put a barb wire above the woven wire fence. or a high tensil wire. So the total fence height could be 54 to 56 inches tall. So I have about 2 feet in the ground. A 6.5 foot T-post would probably work fine, if you wanted to save a few dollars.
