How to Build a Fence on a Slope

[@ThaiRoney]

So nice to see this show again. Brings back memories. Very funny all the comments about how they need to use deck screws, or air nailers and cordless drills... Thank you home time for inspiring the DIY craze that came 10 years after your show.

This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection kzbin.infoUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seems to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

I'm planning on doing a horizontal fence and our yard is sloped; I really appreciate this video and while I've never built a fence before, I feel much more confident after viewing your video and others. By far, this is the best I've seen and I plan to post pics of our fence once done. Thanks for the share!

This is a PBS series called Hometime which ran from 1986 to 2016. The host is Dean Johnson and the female co host is Joanne Liebeler. She co hosted from 1987 to 1992 so it could be either way 80s or 90s. I grew up in the 80s and from the looks of this I'd say this is early 90s instead of 80s.

[@bindaredundat8498]

Had the top line. I thought those dorks were going to build a real fence instead of that segmented pos and what was the footing spec? I mean they buried the auger in a few of those shots. 18" post hole on 6 foot fence- period! The thing about that is all the other posts help that stay sturdy which it would be anyway. Then, mix some fence post concrete wet and pour it in. It just made me exhausted watching them overkill that job. Even if 1/3 of that post were underground and a car hit it, it still breaks off so what's the point? I'm sure it turns out good and hopefully SOMEone gives them some tips to build it WAY easier. I need a nap...

[@RS-fb9nz]

Wow! How much wood did they use. Are they building a fence or something to climb and sit on. Very expensive fence. This should be called 'How to build a wood privacy fence on slope....the hardest and most expensive way'.

Might be easier to set your posts on either end, nail ang pull a string from one to the other, and mark 94" sections down the line making sure the posts are plumb as they meet the line. Alot quicker than hammering stakes and all that, but this video is ollldddddd

You should put 3 or 4 inches of small pebbles under the post for drainage.

For people looking at this video as a primer to fence building look at Postmaster steel fence posts, they are about $30 a piece but they are stronger, easy to install, don't rot out, and don't require as large of a hole. No, I don't sell fencing and I am not a professional fencer.

[@coleflanch8205]

I wonder how many people used this as a reference on building there fence. If you did im sorry, this was cringe worthy in today's standards. The way he was throwing those post hole diggers was hilarious, if you live in the rocky areas ro places with clay and you value your elbows, knees, arms, ribs and chest dont use anything over an 8 inch bit, 6 inches is acceptable for 4x4s. If your going to rent a machine get a little beaver, its a one man machine and the torque bar keeps the head from twisting and destroying your limbs. Average height is 24 inches, can be the same with gate posts, trust me ive built more of them than these guys. You also dont need to mix the (quikcrete) concrete in moist or humid areas, there is so much moisture in the ground it will harden the concrete, if you dont believe me go bury 20lbs of concrete a couple inches of the ground and come back in 4 or 5 days, it will be rock solid. dont waste your time setting up stakes, set the corner posts 6 inches within the property line then pull the string line around the outside (or inside if it has less obstructions). Pull a tape measure below the string (string should be atleast 2 feet off the ground) at 93 inches and kick a mark in the dirt/grass and move the tape down 93 inches, you will be able to see the kick mark. I didn't finish the video it hurt my soul to much. Good luck guys, i got triggered :P

Ive found for these applications it doesnt matter. When it comes to normal 4x4 fence posts you can just stick the post in the hole, fill it 1/3rd with water, then dump half a bag (25-30lbs worth) of concrete in the hole and mix with a pole or rod. Everything in this video is done to the extreme, this fence design is expensive. Hardly anyone uses 4x6 posts
