    actually the distance between the gate posts was PERFECT, the latch is better installed on a flat surface. Great work!

    With all the post you put in and you only missed it by 1/2 inch I’d say that’s pretty darn awesome

      I’d rather be chipping a piece out of the post than having to bring the post closer to the gate 😅

      Evan has all kinds of skills, which I guess, is needed to be a farmer. Much respect.

    It all looks great. I bet the goats got to the other side of the fence and were disappointed because they were so sure that the grass on the other side of the fence was so much better.

    I found that the gate pins you used don't last very long. For me, i use the threaded pins with nuts and washers for the top and bottom hinges. Over time the gate posts will waller out and you'll have to replace them. Over all you have a stout fence that should last for years to come.

  • @keithrobinson1331
    @keithrobinson1331 3 года назад +2

    I would have hung the gate from the other side and we quit using screw in hanger for gates years ago and cut them off and weld a pc of all thread on so you can put a washer and nut on both sides just what we do 👍

  • @w056007568
    @w056007568 3 года назад +1

    Fencing looks absolutely excellent - it should be fine for many years to come.
    Before you commit yourselves to purchasing a water trough consider carefully where you want to position it so that it can perhaps supply water for two paddocks at once by placing it in a fence line. You will also find that animals will stand around it or be walking to it frequently that they will create a muddy area around it which then holds rainfall which creates even more mud!
    A circular trough (or even a semi circular access point) allows more animals to drink at once. An important issue to also consider will perhaps be, in the future what animals will want to drink from it (think goats, sheep, cattle, horses and possibly poultry!)
    It ideally needs to be able to be drained by removing a bung and I suggest you look at a bottom fill design with a float operated valve. If you intend grazing animals in really cold weather then smashing the ice at least once is a daily chore.
    For these reasons I highly recommend an earth-mover tyre type part buried on a mound of soil and with a small size rock cover over the soil, don't forget an easy access gate valve to cut off the water supply. There are good plastic troughs but avoid galvanised troughs as they corrode too quickly.
    All farm livestock waste free access hay badly as you already know! So choose a design that has a trough arrangement underneath the rack that makes them work for it and preferably has some sort of simple roof to keep it dry in wet weather. Just like the water trough livestock will tend to churn up the soil around it and make a mess and destroy the pasture.
    For the few animals you are talking about personally I simply would not bother with a rack but take a couple of slices per beast per day and put it down in fresh location each day. That way you can easily adjust how much you give them each day according to how well they clear up the hay fed the previous day and of course avoid pasture damage. If you feel that you must use a feeder the pick the driest soil site along the fence line alongside the drive from the house to the barn - it could be filled over the fence and is likely to drain most easily from rainfall.

    My gosh when you look down and see all fence posts up gates in and ready for cows. You both have to be so pleased with all your work you’ve done. Every thing look so tidy and clean and well set up. Awesome well done Rebecca and Even. You amaze me how you decide to make something and with out working out a plan it’s made fits perfect (chicken coup on the wall ) the doors you’ve made it’s all so great. I cant wait to see what your going to surprise us with in 2021. So keep up with the videos I watch all I can and I see there’s still more for me to see so I’m not going to run out yet. You both are awesome.

    Hi, that barn with the corrugated metal on the sides I would get some aluminum paint or what ever colour you wish and give that metal a coat of paint, It will add so much to that old barn. The roof is fine and I actually like that brown. Food for thought. Like you do not have enough to do. Such is the life of a farmer. Thanks for the videos, I always find time to watch.

    • @CountryViewAcres

      The gate latch have a place where the gate pin rests on it. So the latch shares the weight of the gate. So less stress on the post and hinges.
