This Farm Fence Is So Fast And Easy It's Embarrassing

[@dogwoodriverranch]

To counteract some of those negative comments - I thought this was a great demonstration!And honestly that fence looks plenty of strong depending on what’s it’s being used for. I keep horses, cows, and pigs behind fencing far less sturdy than that and haven’t had any issues. I’ve also had to build fencing in a hurry and really wish I would’ve had some of these tools/accessories handy. Thanks for the video, I personally got a lot from it! For all of you haters, get over yourself and don’t knock it till you try it!

Y’all. Crazy… this is an excellent fence…. Unless you’re trying to keep Goats or elephants in.

[@richardgriffin3902]

For driving t posts i use my loader to push them in the ground and cut a 2×4 board to set the depth. Every post is the same height! Thanks for the informative video.

[@danh4766]

This video was worth watching just to see the fast clips tie the fence to the t posts. I will only be using those from now on. I think something you might have missed that I use, I place a tractor or truck at the end of the line and use that as my anchor for stretching. Then tie the fence up under tension. I am able to keep more tension in the fence and not have the anchor "come along" in my way. Great job.

[@jolllyroger1]

Totally agree on using the truck hitch to stretch to keeping all the tension... I would still use wire and fence pliers to tie it all to t posts and end anchors... most of the things people think make it easier like electric drills suck because they cost more time everytime.... as for stretching a simple pipe or 2x4 or even 2 t poles or just a chain load binder... You don't need any of this high dollar fancy crap that breaks down... I could stretch a fence tighter than that in the video with just a pair of fencing pliers vice grips and a t pole It's not rocket science As far as the tie wires it's really just as fast to cut a length of wire and spin the ends with fencing pliers ... I just don't get people and their battery operated heavy tool that when it's dead it's dead and it's heavy it's clumsy and it's left laying around far away when your pliers go back in your belt every time... and everyone on the job will have their pliers Not to mention if you're doing lots of fence a simple rod or flat iron with 2 holes for the wire will be always in your pocket and save plenty of time Of course everyone of the crew can have a electric drill with batteries etc but they will be leaving that heavy crap behind all the time

[@jolllyroger1]

As far as the fast clips wrap around the post twice then over itself and bent is more than strong enough any kind of tie is more than enough... those clips are just a lot more expense and really not faster nor stronger

[@allisonb.8356]

We use a tractor too to hold the tension!

Made in America isn't encouraged in America. I watched an episode of Shark Tank and a guy had a truck rack that folded up and he wanted to manufacture it in the States. The whole Shark Tank crew rejected him because he wouldn't move his operations to China. He said he wouldn't, so he left the stage hoping for more local investors to grow his business. Way too much emphasis on the almighty dollar and not enough about value in America.

[@larryag99]

The reason is... most American consumers worship the almighty dollar. Price is king - quality be dammed. Look no further than your local WalMart. You will see anything from new Mercedes to 20-year old drunk-bumped hoopties in the parking lot. The business people with the money on Shark Tank know this. There are far too many businesses that have failed because of price. Yes, some folks will still pay more for a quality product... but not enough, and the businesses focused on quality instead of price eventually fail. It's a shame because most times the higher quality item costing just a little more will far outlast the lesser expensive item... thereby being cheaper in the long run. Folks today just can't think that far ahead.

If countries could only trade in raw materials, (no finished products) then each country would have to supply for themselves what they need and want. Then the corporations wouldn’t be able to use the working class of one country, against the working class of another. There by forcing the corporations to deal with the working class people the are conducting their business in.

[@jolllyroger1]

Yet you go to Asia and Asian hate Chinese crap cuz it's so low quality They only buy it if they have no other options and they can't make it I learned long ago to buy the best then take care of it As a kid my China made tools broke rusted failed etc My American made stuff is still around unless borrowed (or stolen)

[@kevinadams9468]

If 'Made in America' carried with it a guarantee that it would be a quality product,. I would agree. I buy products based on their utility first, price second. I am not concerned about who makes it.

[@jpredt5407]

@8:13 it's a Grapple T clip also you didn't put them on your list. I've very impressed with your channel a friend showed me it. You explain things very well I wish i started with some one like that. Most people just say to do it this way and don't explain how we do it and why we do it that way. Chain walkers look sweet we use come alongs since they are cheap and chains used in commercial settings have to be inspected yearly, Sadly come alongs don't I hate them, mostly because a helper that doesn't know can fubar them easily. Like reeling it in with out tension, Or not putting them in release before putting them away in the truck as you drive down the road and hit bumps that come along will tighten and good luck getting it to release LOL also they are sharp is not well maintained. Never seen the H frame brace, We do Wild life fence 12 ft 1 ft in the ground 10 feet spacing every 100 ft we drill 4 holes for two 2 7/8 thick wall 8 ft spacing with stabilizer braces 4 feet spacing and bent then welded on to the 2 7/8th. We do it that way because It's to government specs. Deers bounce off our fences LOL. Awesome Channel btw

[@allisonb.8356]

Thanks Mark great tips, I love some of the tools you used… it really looks like we could build our fences a Lot faster! We won’t be able to use the braces on our farm because of our bulls, but if you don’t have to worry about that, I think they would be great! Don’t let the negative responses bother you, the needs of each of your clients are different and the needs of each farm are as well.

Because of all of the sheep!!! LOL!! There are more sheep in Aus and NZ than people! Thanks for the alternate methods! How much $$ was that section to build?

[@larryag99]

That was my thought exactly when I watched. All I could see was the cost of all the tools necessary to build it. If you were a fencing contractor these tools could be amortized over many fence jobs, but for the guy just wanting to fence in a few acres of property it appeared to be too expensive for most.

[@mickrambo6787]

With the cost of t-post now and the affordability of electric augers. I prefer to just run 4x4 wood posts. They are fast easy and rigid. Then run some heavy staples to attach fence. You can make future modifications/upgrades to this setup much easier as well. Down the road add a top board, staple on some privacy fabric etc.

[@gregorybarger5591]

I have a RHINO T POST DRIVER with a HONDA ENGINE . Leave it outside uncovered year round till needed, been using since 2010, fenced in 400 ac T Post every 8--12 feet and in two areas 12-16 feet spacing. In 2023 finally had to replace seals, repack drive unit , replace carb(original Honda carb) cheaper then rebuilding carb, replaced power trigger. I use 6.5--7 foot T Post and drive in soft pasture, sandstone, and some flint stone . The cost of the drive in 2008 was roughly $1500. divide by 16 years of owning before replacing parts. $1500÷17= yearly cost Replacement parts cost ÷ 17 years = yearly replacement cost I left above blank so you can factor in what parts cost in your area for your answers. Two men can put in 330 T Post in 01 hour to 02 hours . Give it some thought. REMEMBER... I own a RHINO with a HONDA engine and not a knock off nor cheaper versions

It ain't their chicken so they can stay outta the ring. Honestly throw a hot wire 4 notches up and 8 down and I'd trust it to hold my cattle. I'd trust it to hold my goats apart during rut if it came from the Kiwis. Switching all my come alongs and stuff to straps and rope was well worth the time. Out of everything I've used to pull fence nothing beats pa's old block and tackle stretcher.

[@WPF17]

Well dang I'm jealous of that nice soft ground, I would even take hard-packed clay over what we have here in NH. The ground is so rocky in most places every excavator bucket you pull seems like its 60% rock and 40% dirt. I also have places I can never fence because it's just straight ledge rock. I would need to use concrete drills and set steel posts which is just too much money, so we have to go around. I have to rent an SDS Max hammer drill with a 1.5" x 24" SDS max bit to pre-drill my t-post holes lol.

[@emilysteffen1731]

This looks to be a wonderful fence! We keep sheep, horses, donkeys, chickens and ducks behind fences far less sturdy than that. I can also say from experience, if you are using this type of fencing for dogs, you actually want a bit of slack - the tighter a fence like this is, the easier it is for dogs to climb... and not just domestic dogs - think coyotes and animals like foxes too. Now if you're trying to keep goats in.. you pretty much need Alcatraz in fence form.

Man this might be my solution I need to fence 2 acres. Had a dog a big dog on my back deck a week ago. Idk if it was mean or not all I know is it was staring at my 3 year old son and cats through my sliding glass door. By the time I was able to get the stove situated enough to go and investigate ( 90 seconds at most ). The dog was gone like a fart in the wind most people would say oh no big deal. But in my opinion it is a big deal because the teeth on that dog were big. Now I am not a animal/dog hater I love all animals but I also love my son. All it takes is one wrong move and that dog could have caused a whole bunch of stitch’s in my sons face arms lags or worse. I need a fence but a standard 6 foot tall chain link is looking like 10k for my yard. So my son can enjoy his whole yard not just a small section. This on the other hand might be a bit more affordable????

[@manfredeidelloth8059]

What make and size of t-post are you using?

[@mabamabam]

Couple tips. Strain up your mesh first then you can put your posts in to line up with the verticals. Tying a vertical to the post makes a stronger fence. Although not much stronger with 2" spacing it makes a big difference with 12" spacing. also, straining the mesh is easier if there arent a lot of posts in the way. Dont snap the tail off your knots. If you ever have to go back and adjust, and you will in the 30 year life of the fence, it helps to have a long tail you can untie. You dont need a measuring stick to judge post height. Just stand next to it, bottom rib, nipple, navel, youve got something thats the right height. Draw a line on your shirt if you really need.

Your fence may be tighter than most fences now but in a few weeks I don't think it will be. I was taught too keep a fence tensioned up overnight and the next day you go back and tension it back up again. You'll get a few more clicks out of it.

That is an odd question. Isn’t that sort of obvious? If the ground is hard you aren’t doing it by hand. If you using a pneumatic device it doesn’t matter and actually works easier when the ground is frozen. Pneumatic post pounders work by vibration so it cuts through the ice easily.

Very different from a rancher building a barb wire fence. We would use treated wood for corners or braces. And a fence stretcher for barb wire. Fence staples in wood and clips on t posts. You can put stay ties between t posts. Gas powered fence pounder? Never used one. But looking at it? I would never want to pack it a mile up a mountain. Should stay close to the pickup or quad. And we use fencing pliers to make splices or bend clips. And a good hammer is better for staples.👍

Thanks for the video and eff all these stupid ass trolls. Great for those of us who are not professional fence gurus. The tools and knowledge that you share here will make it easier next time I put a fence up. I rarely have any help with anything. Without help and the right tools it takes a lot of effort, energy and time to put a fence up alone.

Really need those ends and H braces made for 8' fence

Interesting to see how far behind Australia and New Zealand the USA is with farm fencing. We farm 3000 acres in southern Australia and have somewhere around 70 kilometers of fence on our property. We use mostly Waratah products, mainly because they are Australian made, but also because they just work. Anyone who watched this video who hasn’t heard of Waratah should Google them, and have a look at their drivable gal end assemblies and the Jio post system. It makes the system used in this video look like something sold at Walmart. I mean no offense by saying this, it just astounds me how crap the American fencing products are compared to what we use in Australia!

8:45 he mentioned that all the tools and the wire are made in New Zealand.

😊waratah products would be a lot more expensive than what was used here.

For being quick and easy and a lot of know how damn that fence looks phenomenal. Obviously I'm not in the fence trade.
