It's amazing what people will spend money on, whe a simple find and a little ingenuity will suffice! Nowadays, everyone is a "new parts" person!! My dad was born in 1905 and was a mater mechanic in both diesel and gasoline engines! He always complained about the new parts people! Of course, he grew up in in an era where one had to "make do" with whatever they could MAKE! Good job! Simple, yet completely functional and you are teaching your children to see how things work and to be able to, when needed, make a part instead of having to buy it! Besides, as you said, you couldn't find what you needed, anyway! Thanks for posting your videos! SOME may find them corny but, each of them has good value for those of us that don't have the bucks to always run to the hardware store, or, simply don't want to, when something handmade is just as useful!
Great latch. I've been needing a latch for my garden and wanted something unique, well I just had inspiration thanks to you. Great job. Keep the videos rolling. God Bless.
I like the latch use what you have . A side note I really liked your last video as well even though I didn't comment. I like the video's always lean something and get encouraged with you share what the Lord has given you. God Bless and have a great day my friend.
Saw your videos for the first time and just love them. Love the way you explain everything. You seems to be a very cool guy and you have a loving family. Keep up the good work. Watching from the Caribbean. Trinidad and Tobago.
That's a great heavy duty coop, I love yr set up. Gate latch is nice too, blows my mind, all yr horse shoe ideas, good work! Thanks for sharing with us.
If that latch ever quits "sticking up", just mount a magnet to the wall above the hinge. Hope there's no copyright to your latch cause I'm going to infringe, lol! God bless you and your family!
Hi, in one of your barbed wire fence series, you mentioned you were going to show how to dig a hole, pack a post and tools to do the job. I can't seem to find that video? Can you help me find that video?
Awesome! Thank you. It seems pretty straight forward, but just interested in your tips and tools to do the job. There seems to be many tools to get it done. Interested in the manual techniques.
I do a lot of work with EPDM as a roofer. Ill be using it to cover my cattle panel hoop, whenever I get my truck running well enough to pick up some catle panels. Are you able to set up water catchment pm the back end of the coop?
Sharpening stones similar than that are very expensive and mounting yours to sharpen tools would make a nice video. You could fill the hole with concrete and while you're at it, consider digging down a few inches and casting a heavy block the width of the gate to make it less likely predators would dig under it and eat your chickens.
Since you already have the best cordless tool in your hand, Milwaukee, get yourself the impact driver to go along with the drill, same battery, charger, etc. Watch for a deal to get a combination, or whatever. Once you use an impact driver, just for running screws, that drill will grow cobwebs in the ol' toolbag! That is if you don't already have one.
I love my impact, miss placed it though probably floating around in one of my ranch pick ups. I’m surprised how many people don’t use impacts & still use drills. I agree.
I would like to ask you question about worming livestock can you use the dart gun for this and also where do you get the medicine two sedate the animal
Great! I would like to hear a holistic rancher's approach to chicken feed? Back story- I'm a free range chicken fan, and from about may till October dont feed them. Winter they get 13 dollars a bag store bought feed. Well my wife is not a fan of free range chickens, as such the chickens have a chicken fence in their future. They already get all our kitchen scraps just wondering if you have any tricks for feeding them cheaper?
Hey Luke! We are an eastern Montana business and we have enjoyed your videos for several months now. We would love to send you something to help make fencing easier! Do you have a PR mailbox? - Toby-Jeanne
Luke, I don't mean to hijack the theme of your video here, but I wanted to ask you what can be done about youtube/Facebook censorship? I feel like anything with a conservative leaning is getting buried. I am concerned that youtube and Facebook are the only avenues available for free speech anymore, and those avenues are being buttoned up. I know you are a ND Representative so I thought you could point a guy in the right direction. Again sorry it's off topic

Thanks for taking us to the ranch Luke : Blessings to you and yours
Great latch. I've been needing a latch for my garden and wanted something unique, well I just had inspiration thanks to you. Great job. Keep the videos rolling. God Bless.
I’m very glad it helped.
You never cease to amaze! Thanks for the great idea.
Luke, that is the most impressive chicken coop I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you for the kind words.
We appreciate your videos and your testimony for the Lord
Thank you Daniel , God is good.
I love this!!! I have seen these made by my older family members, I'm glad you showed this!
Too cool! Rustic and very creative! I must do this. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing Luke.
You guys are really creative, and use a lot of vintage stuff. That's really cool
Looks good! God bless y’all. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and may the Lord guide and bless you as well.
Really enjoyed seeing the chicken coop and all the fowl. That is a very nice looking pair of turkeys. God Bless
As usual....great video. Appreciate you sir.
Thank you for the kind words. Comments like these make us making more videos.
If that latch ever quits "sticking up", just mount a magnet to the wall above the hinge. Hope there's no copyright to your latch cause I'm going to infringe, lol!
God bless you and your family!
Excellent idea about a Magnant. And I’ll let the copy right lapse help yourself.😁
Several ideas worth stealing in this video !
Awesome
That wooden door is very nice
Thank you sir me and my children slapped her together.
I'd live in that coop it's so nice.
Nice latch and coop.
Oh thank you.
Good Idea
Nicely done
Very creative!
Nice video. Really like the latch.
Thank you easy to make to.
Good video
In the "chicken" universe you have created Fort Knox! Impressive. Blessings, Brother.
😂
That’s awesome 👏
Acts 2:38
Good idea Luke. I also might rob your design.
awesome coop guys!
Very nice hindge. Hope you and your family are doing well.
Simplicity at its best
So nice and looks cool too.
Nice job Awesome coop
I am jealous of your sharpening stone. They are hard to come by here in Alabama. Not THAT hard, but they ain't cheap!
That might be the toughest coop I've ever seen looks like it would stand a tornado !
😉
Great video 👍
That is awesome. Love it.
Thinking of you, miss your awesome videos very much. Take care.
Awesome! Would that work for a cattle gate?
I have seen some that are heavy enough that would work but this is not one of them, if a cow hit the gate it would just bend the hinge.
Good job 👍
Glad to see the family is successfully weathering the virus fiasco.God bless and be well.
That chicken coup looks like a mini cabin 👍
Hi, in one of your barbed wire fence series, you mentioned you were going to show how to dig a hole, pack a post and tools to do the job. I can't seem to find that video? Can you help me find that video?
You know I haven’t done one yet and thank you for reminding me. I’ll try to put one together for you.
Awesome! Thank you. It seems pretty straight forward, but just interested in your tips and tools to do the job. There seems to be many tools to get it done. Interested in the manual techniques.
Luv the Occidental leather tool belt...they should be able to Sponsor you with the cost of em! They r the best belt!
You aren’t kidding, best belt I’ve ever owned...

Trump 2020 best president ever
I got a horseshoe ledge on our front gate almost identical to your chicken house gate
I try to ever underestimate the value and uses for old shoes

That was a loud video! Kinda hard to hear. Nice coop!
Only issue that i see is the ease which hawks or predatory birds can get into the yard...

It’s a tricky thing, it’s their platform, just like if I come to your house and you asked me to leave.
Look at the link that i posted below it's one of the coolest gate latches you ever seen
