What a super section of fence. We just got our fence project done on our small farm. A solid secure perimeter fence is invaluble and allows endless interior arrangements with non permanent fence. Your doing an inspiring job on your homestead.
Looks amazing so far. Also looks like a lot of hard work! Really nice of your friends to help you out. Stacy sure knows what he's doing. You live in a great area with so many caring and giving people.
That was a lot of smart info about fencing, thank you to Stacy for the knowledge. And thanks for putting together another educational and fun video for us.
After putting in two horse pastures, a riding arena, a paddock and a huge chain link yard fence by ourselves my Husband and I can definitely say those hand-held post rammers will do a number on your elbow joints! Thanks for the tips, have never used T-bars before and we're going to be doing a perimeter fence on a new property so this was very helpful in refreshing our memories!
It's a slow but gratifying job plus, your learning some skills you'll never forget. Stacy knows his stuff that's for sure! And whatever you do... don't wait until it's 95 degrees and the ground is like concrete (did that several years in a row).
interesting, the ground gets that hard in the summer? Here in Miami it would be a marsh in the summer, I would say do that in the winter. But I'm literally on the opposite side of the country, diagonally speaking.
Looks like we are getting closer and closer to letting your homestead grow within a blink of an eye with getting pigs and sheep and baby chicks and meat birds. I love that this is happening and that you can take along your homestead journey from day on when you first moved in.
I had to come back and revisit this video because we are about to get started on some new perimeter fencing. About 4000 feet. Thanks for the instruction.
"Thingy" my foot. You need a tractor with an auger or at least rent a motorized auger and get you a chainsaw to cut those brace poles. I hate to think I was going to put up that much wire with the tools you have....but then again you are not as lazy as me.
Man, it must be nice to be able to go that deep with a hand auger. Where im at, we hit either hardpan or rock right around 10-12 inches. Nice looking fence by tbe way
When transferring the stretched woven wire from our anchor point (in this case, Dan's truck) to the brace, we first cut a center horizontal wire free, wrap it around the wood post and back to itself. We then start alternating with the horizontal wires above and below, working away from the center. Stop when only the top and bottom wires remain. These are usually a heavier gauge wire. DO NOT CUT THESE WIRES YET! IT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS! At this point, slowly ease the tension off your anchor point, transferring it to the brace. Once the top and bottom wires are slackened, it is now safe to cut them and transfer them to the brace. When working with, and stretching wire, be very careful. If wire under tension breaks, the snap-back could injure someone severely. Maybe even kill someone Additionally, a loose wire could poke someone in the eye, or snag someone and cut them. And finally, think of your animals. If bits of wire or loose staples are left on the ground, they could pick them up while grazing, giving them hardware disease that could kill them. Whatever you use as an anchor point, make sure it is strong enough to support the job you're doing. A truck or tractor might work, or even a conveniently located stout tree. But otherwise you might have to build a "dummy brace"... A second, temporary brace in line with your fence line to pull from. We space our posts every 16.5'. In fencing terms, that is one rod. On any physical barrier fence, I would never exceed that. Where livestock pressure is higher, like a corral, you might want to consider placing them closer. There is no "standard". It is all a balance of time, effort, and money. We also interspace wood posts to add strength to physical barrier fences. In our case, it's every 4th post. Wood resists bending forces better than steel "T" posts.
I really enjoyed this video, as I need to do some fencing here myself. Perhaps you could share how you came to choose this fence style and the what other options you eliminated and why.
About to install a little bit of fencing for our dogs just outside London, UK. Loved watching your video, looks like a completely different world and amazing!! Hard work though -Well Done!! -such a huge area to cover compared to my little garden :-)
That’s the first time I’ve seen cutting and wrapping the ends from the center out while under strain. I’ve always strained from between the H brace, hammer stretching last 3 feet and stapling off. I’m gonna try your style next time.
Please go into more detail about post spacing & the tieing of the wire to the wooden posts at the end of this video. You showed cutting some of the fence and wrapping around the post. Thanks for showing. We have 26 acres needing fencing!
I just reread your comment and realized I misinterpreted what you were asking about spacing. I thought you meat spacing between each post but now I realize you were asking about spacing between the line brace posts. The "H" post was originally 8' but we shortened them slightly because if we didn't the spacing would have had the vertical post potentially over utilities. So we just shorted it to where the post was clear of the utilities. You don't have to shorten it unless there are circumstances like that
Its great that you are learning new skills! A heavier post driver will require less strokes to install posts. You might weld an extra few ounces to a pound on top of the driver. (Welding is another great homestead skill.) Knowledge weighs nothing. :-)
The “Dude” says cool until he grows up and learns what digging post holes by hand all day it’s like 😂. Good thing is by that point you’ll be on the sidelines watching him saying “cool” when he says he’s spending the day digging you’ll be sitting back telling him it’s not straight 🤣
As someone else who is new this the price of all this has me gasping lol. Also I wish my soil was like this, bedrock after 6 inches. No choice but to spend the extra money and work to set the corner posts in concrete. Can't backfill a hole with chunks of unsettled rock.
When ever placing corner post.... " try " to plan ahead. Plant the corner posts the year before you string the wire. Then.....only string the wire when the posts are frozen in the ground ( provided it freezes where you live ) . This way each post in the fence holds some tension. At all cost try not to string wire the same year you install the corner post. After installing the corner post use water to settle the ground around the post. For a few days....add water around the post . The water will eliminate any air......firming up the soil. If needed...... Use a tractor or some other means to hold the corner post ( on each end ) in place while tightening the wire. Again this way all the posts share the tension in the fence line. Also..... use something like a cement silo stave and place it just below the surface of the ground in front of the post. This acts to spread out the force and holds the post in place. Its like pulling a string through your hand compared to a rope. Spread out the force over a wider area of ground. Instead of a 6 inch post the stave can act as a 24 inch post. When making the spices / connections at the corner post...always center them to the post ......other wise as in this video ....often the tension will rotate the post rendering your braces worthless !
@@vikingexperience5089 We have hard clay soil, with hardpan maybe 12" down. The worst soil ever. :/ We have T-posts everywhere. We've had to reinforce wood posts because they were cemented in, rotted out...me & my daughter didn't know how to remove, or too hard to remove. So, we used the t-posts thinking easiest & cheapest...holy cow not really. The soil...rocks...smh. Once they're in, they're in never to be pulled out. :/ I think adding gravel for us wouldn't work, maybe in "good" soil. Besides, that plate (t?) is supposed to grip the soil, & I think the gravel would interfere a bit.
Saludos. Aca en Venezuela los rollos de esa malla para ovejas traen una longitud maxima de 50 metros... Que recomiendas como aclaje intermedio para poder sostener la presión durante el estiramiento de la malla??? Osea que estructura soporte me recomiendas debo realizar cada 50 metros para garantizar la correcta tensión de la malla en el tiempo...??? Gracias...
Why not oil your post and cover the part that goes into the ground with roofing tar to prevent wood rot. The post will last longer. Good luck with your fence. Be safe and God bless
Oh Dan...where were you with this video when we had ours installed this past summer....the guys who did ours could have watched this and NOT botched our fence job o.- What a blessing your friends Stacy & Virginia were...& it looks great! We have all wood posts except for their attempt to support their lame job ...with t-posts. lol and they fastened the fence on the wrong side of the posts...at least you can rest well knowing that your spent your hard earned dollars well brother. :) I'll have to make a video on how not to trust craigslist contractors in the boonies...and fencing on rock hills complicates it all. Anyways - it looks wonderful for you. :)
hah! you'll be waiting a long time ...I don't even have a phone! o.- I'll leave the teaching to you & young homesteaders like you...you guys make me proud!
That's a lot of fencing, but I can relate. Questions: Did you use treated posts? What spacing did you use between T posts? No concrete? Well done! I watched the entire video. :)
where did you find the cedar posts and how did they compare in price to pressure treated posts of the same diameter? excellent fence build video! subscribing.... now.
Thank you! We appreciate the support. I found the posts on Craig's List. I never looked at the pricing for pressure treated because I wasn't ever planning on using them. I paid around $6 for the narrower posts and $8 for the wider ones, I believe
I'm glad I found this video, we are making our first permanent fencing with field wire. We had built a temporary with cattle panels that will be In this area for their shelter since we built a barn area there. I missed it but what are the long spikes yall put in to hold the h support posts together with?
exactly that....spikes. I got them in the fencing section at the local farm store. You should be able to get them at Tractor Supply and other similar stores. I think they are 10" nails (spikes).
I am getting ready to do this for my garden. Did you use a 6" auger and 6" Post or 8" auger with 6" post. I have a 6" auger just like that but want to use 6" post on my corners and it seems like if you dig a 6" hole for a 6" post there would be no back fill and not sure if that would be good or bad.
When fixing the splices on the main corner post....always center them !! As you have therm here... the " pull " of the fence will literally turn the post in the ground making your braces worthless ! Same with top barbs...always alternate or center them !
Great video! I was wondering about how to attach the wire to the crank when bracing your first post. Also, do you not start on the outside at the corner and rotate the the inside of the tpost so animals cannot push out? It looked like it was all on the inside....looks great regardless I just wanna make sure I do it right. Thanks!
Thanks for the informative video about to build one just like this. Just wondering how far apart did you space the wooden post apart? I know the t post go about 10' apart.
It looks like you have 3 T-post in between a wood post the entire length. Can you tell me how many feet between each T-post and how many feet between each wood post.
Those fancy ratchets make your corner and H post cost more than they have to.. same result by just tying the two loops, then putting about a 18-24” stick between them and twisting them together.
WOW. Nice neighbors! And good work, y'all!!!
Thanks 👍

Thanks Jacob. Yeah, we have good soil for digging
Would you mind posting a link to that wire twisting tool. That thing looks handy. I looked for one online, but cant find one like it
I found wrapping a long measuring tape around the brace twice to find the length of the wire before cutting it, made the install of the wire easier.
Loved working with you, and thanks for the great lunch! Looking forward to future visits!
Likewise! I can't thank you enough for the help!
Man you have me so anxious to finish my pasture fences now. Good work
Thanks Brian
Great video, thanks so much for taking the time to post. Learned a lot and am feeling pretty confident about my future project
You're welcome, Victor!
Thanks for your great video which will help me and my wife install our new sheep fencing in New Zealand. What a lovely bunch of people.

Yeah, so I am gonna need Stacy to come over and install my fence 😊 seriously, great job!
I’m putting in fencing now for the first time and your video has been a great help. Thank you! BTW I’m pretty sure we live in the same county.
Awesome! I'm glad it was helpful. You can send me an email: dan at grassfedhomestead dot com about being neighbors
looks good and I had no idea it was so much work to put in sheep fencing!
Yes, it isn't an easy task
Nice! glad you are doing it right. A good perimeter fence is a good investment.

I'm not sure Jason. If you go over to the Blue Creek Dairy Farm channel and ask Stacy, he'll be able to answer your questions
Hello sir. What's the name of the tool used in pulling the hog wire. At 16.20 of your video.
what size drill bit do I need for the nail spikes?
I think it is 1/2"
Good job well done
Thank you!
How far apart are you placing the cedar posts and then how far apart are the t posts between those?
all posts are 16.5' apart and every fourth post is cedar
How did you determine the spacing of the t-posts and the wood posts?
it's a standard spacing
Does Joel Salatin use that kind of perimeter fencing? Was searching and your video up! Deff got a thumbs up!
Awesome video.. making fence for sheep also. What size diameter is your wooden end post?
8" at the base and it tapers up to 6" I believe
How tall is the woven wire u used
47"
Thanks for the informative video about to build one just like this. Just wondering how far apart did you space the wooden post apart? I know the t post go about 10' apart.
Mabey one every 40'?
the t-posts are 16.5' apart and every 4th post is a wood post
Awsome thanks for the info like your videos btw.
Shout out to CGC Swordfish. CGC Coho and Brant myself! Dude must've been an MK cause he was sure putting in that work hahaha. ;);)
Great video
Why why why loud music????
It looks like you have 3 T-post in between a wood post the entire length. Can you tell me how many feet between each T-post and how many feet between each wood post.
I've got 288 feet to put up but have zero experience in fencing so I'll need some help
Where do you get the little wire tensioner on the h braces?
farm store
Those fancy ratchets make your corner and H post cost more than they have to.. same result by just tying the two loops, then putting about a 18-24” stick between them and twisting them together.
How long were the posts you used? And how tall of fence will you use?
8' posts, 4' fence
What’s the name of the part that holds the tension wire called?
💥
Where did you get that tool to wrap the wire and clips?
I'll have to dig up the link for it. If you send me an email: dan at grassfedhomestead dot com I will find it and send it to you
Are thy not using quickcrete? or did i miss that?
no, that would be unreasonable to use quickcrete for so many posts. It is packed with earth and almost strong as cement
how many feet did you do and how much was cost
