Thank you. I'm a girl and you explain things so well that I can understand.
Yeah, even men can understand.... 😂
Single strand electric fences, i really like them- the persistent westerlies stretch the wire a bit every year, let alone a cow having a go. A quick couple of clicks, keeps it sweet
Ratchet strainers are great, if for no other reason than they allow re-tensioning over and over again if necessary...that's not going to happen with any in-line knot I know of.
I Discovered these strainers about 15 years ago.
I will never go back to getting tangled up in the old set of strainers ever again.
No matter how much they end up costing
As they say Bernie, each to their own.... I do use them on some of the vineyard foliage wires as they allow me to adjust short rows each year when I drop them.....
Just took delivery of my first few of these today. What timing!
Never used them before but got a pig of a repair job on concrete posts with trees in the way and barbed wire etc, on a property line to keep the heifers out of the garden. Thought they may be useful.
This has given me some ideas on how to use them.
Useful content as always Tim! Cheers.
Good morning, Tim, excellent ideas. In my early days on my hobby farm, I used ratchet strainers. As I had no idea on how to do knots etc. The strainers I used with some success would have been more efficient if i knew how to use them properly. Thanks as always for another informative episode. Cheers
Hi Tim,
Horsley Wholesale sell a nice version of these with a 1/2" square drive.
I use them in a set (of 13) to strain netting instead of wedge boards. Then crimps to finish.
Gives the ability to tension each line wire so they share the load equally.
John.
Good One, cheers.
Thanks mate. I noticed your handle as Mens Shed Outreach.... Care to contact me about that if it's fair dinkum? timthompson.ag/
I just hope you don't need a 10mm socket, those buggers are hard to find!!!
No it’s 11mm! Oh happy days! I’ve got three of the buggers too. Easy to find…. Just look for a 10mm and there they are!
using drill = genius!
These have not got the best reputation here in the UK, but are useful in a few situations, good tips though. Should have opened the vice a wee bit wider when prepping for the video Tim. 👍🤣
I don’t use them on fences either but plenty of punters do…..
How do you release them if they are tensioned?
Tighten slightly and pull up the ratchet lock.
Where is it available in Victoria ?
I get them from Bunnings and the Rural store in Casino Nsw
Yeah, Bunnies mate
@@FarmLearningTim rural stores only or suburban stores also
@@andreabond3501 All of em. You will find them in the gardening section near the mesh fencing.
Bunnings are REALLY expensive for these things - I've seen them at rural supply stores (who probably need our custom more than Bunnings do) at almost half the Bunnings' price.
Here I am using a spanner to tighten them like an idiot
A safe idiot nonetheless….. careful.
