I have never seen a couple (without outside help) accomplish such achievement in reclaiming and rebuilding a homestead. You are extraordinary and deserve so much adoration!!!
Hi.... Evan and Rebecca nice to see you both love watching your video homestead beautiful great good job BYE 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍
Evan and Rebekah are an amazing team!!
That fence building crew is top notch. Be carefully some fence company doesn't make your top hand a better offer for wages and time off.
Next time use mason string to line up your posts. You can easily move it about and then mark your holes. It stretches tight over fairly long distances and is fine except for very windy days.
Looks great! Plans are coming together!
Evan, you always find a way to make things happen and you and Rebecca make a great team working together and getting things done. This farm looks amazing compared to what it was.
now, cap those open ends of your pipe so they don't fill with rain water and rust off at the ground. Lookin good.
I'm jealous! You make it look easy. I'm a wooden post guy because I can't weld and I'm too cheap to pay someone else to do it. 😂
Wonderful job Evan & Rebekah , will look so nice when done
Wow what a job!
Farmer Tyler Ranch has a great video on welding pipe
He also made a little jig for cutting the curves on the horizontal pipes. Very slick!
I just said the same thing, that’s where I learned to weld from. He just did this up grade as well those fencing videos will be helpful too @countryviewacres
That's 2 3/8" upset tubing... I've used that from our Oil Patch for exactly what you're doing... The only suggestion I have for you is make sure you cap all the posts... The wasps and yellow jackets love those for taking up residence. Once put my hand over one and felt a massive buzzing against my hand... luckily I was still in descent enough shape to escape the attack of their fury
Also capping the tops keeps water out so it doesn’t freeze in there
Campbell soup cans painted international rust brown for caps.😅
2" PVC caps should go right over the end of that.....with a little persuasion.
@@chrisbaumer3364 We dipped our CLEAN soup cans in OSPHO to prevent rusting. Underwater welders use OSPHO to treat steel going beneath salt water. Did 120 cans 13 or 14 years ago and still not rust. Although they have been painted at least five times.
The pipe will fill with rain and over time the post will rust off. My barn lot post are concrete filled. Good job guys.
One of numerous things I like about is no fear to make a mistake because they're learning tools. More people should be that way. 👍👍👍
That is going to be one strong fence. Great work guys keep it up!
Farmer Tyler made a jig to cut his notches.Might be worth a look.
I look forward to your videos every week. You are painstakingly patient and well prepared for everything you do. How is the progress on the tractor rebuild coming along?
Your channel has vastly become my favorite, I've been with you a couple of years now. Your upfront attitude is refreshing only thing I might add in a friendly way is giving Rebecca more shout outs, she does a tremendous job. Also you don't lack any friendly suggestions and I'm sure you pay attention to all of them. God bless both or you.
Definitely agree that this is my favorite channel.
You do great work . Thanks for explaining what you doing step by step
Love watching you all improve your farm.
Great Job guys!😇!😇!
Always enjoy watching you two get things done.
I love when you drill a hole and find an unexpected rainbow root. 😂😂😂
It’s even better when it’s not connected at either end!
Man you have to be RICH to be a farmer! So much money to just get set up. You both have worked hard and are to be commended. . I don't think I could have done half as well as you guys have done. Good luck in the future.
Good video. You are very creative and not scared to work. I loved Rebeka's ''un huh''. I didn't think the cement bag was disintegrating either. 😊
Instead of capping your pipes to keep water and wasps out we used cans of SPRAY FOAM ....a good squirt and after it hardens you can slice it off flush with top and it takes paint. I used it on our clothes line poles and fence posts 15 years ago and it is still there and water tite.
It is amazing the things you too get done without hiring it out. You are an inspiration to all of us.
Evan email FTR he made a template when he welded his fence. I believe he said it went so much faster notching out the posts. I know you both watch each others videos. Keep the videos coming I sure enjoy them.
Greetings from Colorado. Your great grandkids will appreciate your permanent fencing. I built many of those corner posts on our farm years ago, many are still in use today. Cutting the pipe to fit definitely has a learning curve, you will get better and quicker the more you do it. This brings back many memories thanks for sharing it with us.
That plasma cutter is nice!
i like that you want to mow 5 more acres of land, thats why the old fences was so close to the road, they didn't want to mow.
One bag at bottom one bag at top is all you really need.😊
Good idea to keep that twisted copper phone line intact from the road. It can still handle up to a Gb or more of data depending on distance to home. The older line you dug up was not twisted and so was not capable of high speeds.
I have a couple of tip to extend the life of the fence. It is important to cover the top of the pipe.
The easy and cheap way is to stuff a wad of newspaper or old cloth down the pipe so the top of the wad is about six to eight inches below the top of the pipe. Then, fill the top with redi mix concrete and make a cone of concrete so the water will roll off the top.
It is also important to go back and add a cone of contrate at the base so the water won't stand there and rust out the pipe.
Also, paint the pipe with a mitten and really slater it on thick.
Finally, except for corner posts that will have side stress that need to be used quickly, you can actually dump dry red-mix in the hole around the pipe and the moisture will absorb into the concrete and harden around the pipe.
Amazing job cleaning the fence on your property. Enjoy your videos. Have a great summer.
Evan I love watching you learn different ways to do a fence line but I know it would be much easier to use a hole saw to make your fish mouths. If you snap a chalk line down the pipe and drill you holes on that line at the length you need you would have a perfect fit up. I wish I was closer becaue my 56 years of welding I know I could help.
👍👍👍 fencing!
You should watch Farmer Tyler Ranch, he did a project like that last year, I think it would be helpful.
Great job Evan
My dad always said everyone has a PHD, you're either a Doctor or you have a Post Hole Digger!!!
Love that!
In Louisiana we call Dotty before you dig. Keep up the good work. The place is looking good. 😊
Great video! Didn’t realize how much hard work went into building a fence.
Great video as always, loved Rebecca drilling the holes, way to go girl🎉
Great Job. Really looking good....Continued Success. 👍
Thanks for sharing, have a great week!
Great job, God Bless y'all. John V. Mi. 🙏🇺🇸🗽
Hello Evan Rebecca nice work. Just a suggestion to put caps on your posts because they with fill up with water. Have a good day.
Awesome job guys. A lot of work and time goes into putting up a fence right. Blessings
Great job mate keep it up and look after yourself and your family
Great job... Bet it feels good to have that much done - Thanks for sharing....
Congratulations, Evan. You didnt break anything on this project. SUCCESS!!!!!
Good job guys
Boy! You have worked so hard to get to this point! Congratulations!
Just fantastic, thank you
I would recommend a face shield for cutting to protect your face from sparks.
Outstanding!
They sell pipe templets so you do not have to waste a ton of grinding. Refer to farmer tyler ranch.
So enjoy your posts great job Evan and Rebekah. thank you so much
Good job you two. 😎
Awesome job
Thanks Guys
Nice work
Once you cope your first pipe and get the correct shape to match the upright post. Use a file folder or piece of cardstock and roll it over the od of the pipe and trace inside to give you a line. Then remove the file folder and use scissors to cut the line. Then wrap and use welders chalk to lay out your cut. Then plasma torch along the chalk line.
Nice job guys 👍🏻💯💚🌱🌞
one tiny lil thing you might want to do is cap the tops of the pipes so water can't get inside and freeze and bust your nice fence posts and concrete
Fence line is looking GREAT
One of the best channels on RUclips
Once again. Yalls work ethics are top notch! Shouldn’t have no troubles with yalls fence!!’
Always looking forward to your videos.
Lovely operator you have there.😊
Great Job guys!
Good luck with 811. My driveway is 1/2 mile long and has 3 total houses on it. 811 told me they are not allowed to come any further than 18 ft off the main road. The second time they came out to mark where my electric gate was going, they marked in completely different locations from the first time. Funny thing is where both teams marked, they missed an actual gas line location by 7 ft. Not 7 inches, 7 ft. Luckly the cable installer located the area for me on his day off. Found everything in about 45 minutes. (Thanks, Cableman Greg). Anyway, keep up the good work Evan. Love the videos.
Need cap or something to keep the water out. You probably already thought of that and just haven’t told us. A lot of work for a fence but should last you lifetime. It may or may not happened but think about how to replace some on the road side just in case there would be an accident and take out some pipes. Keep up the good work
If you aren't going to cap the vertical posts, then you will need to put a couple of weep holes near the very bottom of the posts for drainage inside the posts to help prevent rusting faster. The gravel at bottom was a good idea too!
Cap those post to keep water out of inside of
Post to reduce rusting
This fence looks amazing! Thank you for sharing!
I would suggest you raise the concrete to above the ground level. We have steel pipes for our back deck over our daylighted basement. One day I notices that the pipes had begun to rust thru at the bottom where the concrete was at ground level, the 2 posts that were on a concrete pad didn't rust. I had to have someone jack the deck up and put a cardboard form around the pipe and fill the form with concrete. No rust since.
Looking good
Great job 👏 thanks for the quality content. Take care.
The correct way to brace a fence: Between the 1st and 2nd posts you put a horizontal brace; you also put a diagonal brace from the bottom of the 1st post to the underside of the horizontal post, where it attaches to the 2nd post; done.
That's what he is doing.
Ok. Here’s the deal. Set your corner posts. Then stretch one wire lying on the ground, using your tractor or come-along to mark your post line. Lift it up and “snap” it a couple of times like you would a chalk line. Then you just walk along with your steel posts and pond them in, just brushing the wire. You can’t make a straighter fence
P.S. save yourself some money and use gravel and dirt pounded with a crow bar. Fill 6”, pound. Fill 6”, pound until you are done
They have those template wraps on amazon to help perfect your fish mouth cut. Keep up the great work, both of you.
Cool, I'm excited so I can't imagine how excited the both of you must be
excellent video as usual
awesome job!
Evan, you should check out Farmer Tyler Ranch. He has a lot of black pipe fencing. He has a good RUclips channel. I found him from Pete at Just a Few Acres.
I’m sure you’ve thought of this but, cap the open end of those pipes (protect from water and wasps!! Learned from Farmer Tyler Ranch!) Looks good and will make an impressive fence 👍👏
Great job Rebecca and Evan looks very very nice!
Great job keep up the great work love your videos thank you
Great job , Evan ! It looks good and will hold very well ! I LOVE YOU GUYS !!! 🥰🥰
When you weld make small circles about the size of a #2 pencil and every circle after overlap the previous by 1/2 the next circle.
Cool thanks 😊
You did it great Evan, your fence lines look straight ! My dad and I put in steel pipe for our corner posts in concrete on our dairy farm pastures to keep posts from shifting or pulling up.when I was a teenager and we used metal T-posts along the fence line. You are right in that they should last your lifetime and won't pull out of the ground unless someone pushes them over or pulls them out of the ground. We used large diameter pipe in concrete for our gate posts to support the weight of the gates. Might be a good idea to paint the pipe (white or black) so they don't rust over time.
Nice when a plan comes together! And all your planning and prep work is what makes the plan come together. Very nice job!
we used a log splitter and crushed the ends of the pipe, instead of coping. we had to use a block to make up for the end of the stroke on the splitter.
Awesome as Always 😅
Yeah, Evan! I’ve been waiting for this video. I’m eager to see the fence go up. Your property is really taking shape. All your hard work is paying off. Congratulations!
Hello from Santa Fe, New Mexico the good thing you’re already starting and making it nice job
Much better drilling now than last summer. Fence work looks great
Evan, you have learned so much. Yourself and Rebecca are not afraid to try anything. You are doing great. Very clever deciding where to put your posts. I think your braces are very good. As several people have mentioned. Farmer Tyler is excellent. You should look him up,tell him I said Hi. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
