    Shew....Man...I never would have show the Helicopter searching my property if I would have known how much hatred this would spawn...I don't believe any law enforcement agency has a right to low fly over private property without probable cause...period. I support law enforcement...but I also support individual rights...what's next..walking through your yard, property or home searching for anything you could be prosecuted for?? Taking your property? Taking your right to feed your family? Taking my cattle? My Chickens? Taxing me for the veggies I grow? NO PROBABLE CAUSE...NO WARRANT...NOT LOW FLY OVER PRIVATE PROPERTY? What do you guys think?

      Without a warrant, in my opinion, they have no business at all being over your property unless they're in hot pursuit of a dangerous criminal.
      A helicopter flying over your property, taking pictures, is the exact same as an officer entering your property without a warrant and taking photos on foot.
      With all the laws today, every single American is violating some unknown law.
      Having law enforcement go on a fishing expedition on your property is not a good idea.
      Got a barn with power that you didn't apply for a permit? Illegal
      Selling neighbor's a chicken? Illegal unless you apply for permits, exemptions and other stuff
      Crossing a road on an ATV? Illegal
      Trading a chicken for a garden plowing? Illegal without exemption because it's "Commerce".
      Sheriff's are accountable to the people via voting and know their neighbors. I.E they derive their power from the "consent of the governed" and know their communities. State Police and City Cops do not. Therefore I support Sheriffs, but not State Police and City Cops.

    Hearing the State Trooper chopper reminded me of my Grandpa. He had a back pasture that basically was just overgrown with weeds and scrub brush- he got the idea to plant Citronella (similar looking plant to marijuana from a distance) He ran his riding mower out cutting a path, then cut a big circle out in the middle of nowhere in his field, then planted a bunch of Citronella. and from his back porch, could watch the Troopers hovering real low trying to figure out what was there!!! This is in SW Indiana. RIP Grandpa!!

    We sometimes run a self tapping screw through the hinge strap into the gate. This helps keeps the hinge from moving over time and would give you another level of security as well.

      Andy you are correct ,.. as a fence builder in Texas we always slide the bottom hinge up to so the bar is resting on the hinge, to prevent it from sliding with the weight of the fence and then adding the self tapping screw...gates in high pressure areas we use a 3rd hinge& hook in the center...As don’t check level on top of gate, use the next bar to check it..welding warps the top bar from the factory

    Something else we do on our farm is put a screwable hinge into the bottom of the opposite post that the hinges are on. This allows you to pick up on the gate and sit it down on it. It keeps the weight off the post when it’s not in use. It also helps keep your animals in if you were to forget a chain or something. You have to pick up on it to open it.

    Another good step to take is add a little axle grease on the hinges.
    1. Helps it open and close smoother
    2. Keeps it from squeaking
    3. Keeps it from rusting as fast.
    Since you are already done, just spray some white lithium grease in it

    Odd and funny, odd being just today I had to hang a "farm" gate between my property and the neighbors property. And I sat down this evening and your video shows up on my RUclips screen. Mine was just a 10 footer but I, like you was alone, only difference is I'm 72 yrs old.
    Funny part was I said to myself as you were tighting up the top hinge with a crescent wrench, I said to myself, "turn the wrench around, you are using it wrong". Bout that time you turned the wrench around and said, "there ya go, for all you purest I'm using the wrench right now". I said "WHAT", cracked me up. I'm not a purest by any means, just my grandfather, Pop, drilled that into me. Great videos. I am a new subscriber and thanks for keepin it clean.
    BTW, I was using the screw in hinge and I agree with you it hard to drill straight, even harder when you're alone, I take a framing square and clamp it to the post with the long part facing down the post and the shorter end facing the side I'm drilling. Square it and level it and use it as a guide as I drill, works good.

    Back in the early 90's at my other farm the Texas National Guard used my barn as a simulated target for fighter jet bombing runs.Imagine a fighter or 5 coming in low (300 feet) and fast over your head while your working your hay field. First time rattled me but after that it was something I actually liked to see since I'm a veteran.Not even sure what type of fighters they were but it was definitely cool.

    I always enjoy your videos. As a pilot, I can tell you minimum altitude for a sparsely populated area would be 500’ for an airplane. Helicopters have greater leeway because of their ability to land most anywhere. Police have even greater leeway because they can claim its part of a search for a suspect or operation. I am not sure if an officer needs a search warrant to view from the air. I suspect not because air space is governed by the FAA.

    • @user-pt6io2cq9n
      @user-pt6io2cq9n 4 года назад +3

      There is no difference between "helicopter and airplane" or "leeway" as you say. The precedent has been established. In United States v. Causby, the case that decided how property rights in airspace would work, the court found that the property rights in the air over a small farm extended up to 365 feet aboveground, and therefore that government airplanes flying at 83 feet aboveground (and frightening the farmer’s chickens to death) were trespassing. FAA guidelines DO NOT trump established case law. Federal law always supersedes any state law. Don't end up on the wrong side of a civil suit.

    • @JDFinley
      @JDFinley 2 года назад +1

      I'm always concerned when I see a pilot that does not know the rules. The rule over sparsely populated areas is NOT a minimum of 500' altitude. Rather, it is: "In those cases ("over open water or sparsely populated areas.", the aircraft may not be operated closer than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure." That means that there is no minimum if over a sparsely populated area and there are no persons, vessels, vehicles, or structures AND an emergency landing can be made "without undue hazard to persons or property on the surface." Please stop telling people "minimum altitude for a sparsely populated area would be 500’ for an airplane."

    Josh next time you put up a gate, place a block under the far end of the gate. That’ll keep you from doing so much wrenching. You can hand tighten that bolt snug then wrench it tight. Looks good; nice fence.

    Just going to throw out a tip that I think will make life easier. I use a auger bit that’s long enough to go through the post. It’s kinda pricy ($20) or so for one but where it pulls through the post it just makes one easier to me. A few years back I had to replace a lot of infrastructure on the farm and had to set many post and many gates on one of the first gates I was hanging I was using the exact bit your using my neighbor who is a older farmer came over handed me a auger bit and said try this haha. Wouldn’t trade that neighbor for anyone super good guy.

    Uggghh, our gates always end up sagging a few years later! They always go on nice, but staying that way is tough! Not a big deal if you use a chain, but we use a fast latch system so any sagging means it won't latch 😣

    There always seems to be a grey area when it comes to air space. I suggest getting the tail number if it happens again. You can file a complaint against the actual pilot for violating the air space. All aircraft flights are recorded from altitude, speed, winds etc.
    You can look up any air craft by the tail number. They are considered public information nation wide.

    Helper, tractor, block of wood, lots of ways to lift the far end of the gate.
    I wouldn't cut those bolts too short. Things shift and when the gate goes out of square it is easy to square it back up.

    Enjoy and appreciate your videos. Your property is on the ground not the air. Class G uncontrolled airspace is for anyone to use and they don't have to talk to anyone.... Scaring your animals or blowing over your property is a different story. I own land right off of the approach end of the busiest heliport in the country (Cairns Army Airfield)... beautiful sight watching them hover around. Just be glad you don't live around Fort Rucker near a NOE route.

    I want to get a heavy duty farm gate like that but 20 feet wide just in case I ever need to have something go through it that's extra wide plus if there's ever a fire I want to give more space for the fire department and their fire trucks and you can always use like 2 10 foot wide ones or 2 12 foot wide ones which I've done before but I don't want to deal with 2 sets of hinges if possible and having to worry about opening 2 different sides of the gate so I wanna try 1 20 foot wide one sometime possibly in a certain spot but cool video thanks for sharing!

    • @StoneyRidgeFarmer
      @StoneyRidgeFarmer  7 месяцев назад

      16 feet is plenty wide to get anything through my brother...unless it's a large combine or something like that. You will have to do 2 gates if you want 20 feet, but I've never had anything that wouldn't fit through the 16ft gates on this property....never. I get tractor trailers here all the time and 16ft is the standard....they still have about 4ft on each side. 20ft gate would be too hard on the gate post and hinges and opener
