Wow! That was really slick and turned out beautifully. My neighbors and I are going to be building one, and I'm doing research on RUclips, Your video came up first, and I think my research is now complete. Thanks for sharing, and as always, keep building 👍
Been gettin tired of my cows following me out of the gate for awhile now and I’m about fed up, just last week one of on crazies followed me out and ran down the road ended up getting a couple of deputies to help me get her back up, luckily my brother has easy access to some good steel and another good friend of mine does do some concrete work I think this video will help me keep them ole girls behind the fence where they need to be.
Looks good. I was wondering how you were going to keep them from jumping the corner since you didn't put the guard midway of the fence and then you showed that in like the final 10 seconds of the video :)
How many hours do you think it took you to cut all the metal, form it up and weld it all together? Just the metal fabrication, not the install. Thanks 😊
I picked the material up myself but spent around $1600 on materials. Probably went up 50% more in the past year. Are you planning on doing something similar?
Yep but I don’t have the equipment, so trying to evaluate costs vs having a local guy do it for me- what I gain in labor is lost in rentals. Thanks for the help. Blessings. Jim

I had a couple calves figure out this year that they could duck under the side skirt so I had to weld another horizontal pipe. Thanks for commenting

My best guess is 12-16 hours of labor, but just a guess
Nice, thank you!!
Are you working on a cattle guard?
Do you know what the spacing is between the pipes? Mine is 3.75” and I had a cow walk right over it
I used 4.5 pipe with 4.5 spacing
Nice work! What did you spend to do this yourself, including material and delivery?

How did you decide what depth of concrete you wanted to use? I'm doing a similar install for myself.

How much rebar did you use in the footings?
3 sticks of 3/8 in the bottom and two more sticks going up the sides
Square bar seems to be better than round bar.
What usage are you referring to?
@@LewisRenovation easier to get a better weld.
👍
👍👍
lol why not make one frame and use it twice.. ????????? god bless.
Minimum concert delivery is 6 yards. So all that extra concrete would be way more expensive than the form material
