    Your jig systems are genius. Especially the post jig. I’m genuinely impressed.

    What type of laser did you use to mark the post? Could you make a video demonstrating that?

    Great video! We need to build a fence around 5 acres plus pens and I really want it to be as pretty as this one. We are newbies and stressed about the how-two’s. This was very helpful!

    Did something similar with 2 exceptions. I sandwiched 2x4 welded wire fencing between the post and boards and used 16 ft boards with staggered joints.

    • @crazyfarmliving

      We used a black sharpie and marked the posts at night with a green laser level. That way we knew where the bottom board needed to be.

    I’m doing the exact same thing.. I just bout 8’ 1x6’s from HD.. is that what you’re using? Do you feel they are strong enough not to warp?

    • @crazyfarmliving
      @crazyfarmliving  3 дня назад

      We only had 4 warp, so that was pretty good in our book.

  • @whalerlife53
    @whalerlife53 Год назад +1

    If you add another block to the top of your jig that will sit on top of the previous board that is already screwed in, the jig will not slip down under the weight of the unscrewed boards.

    How many acres did you cover? And approximately how much did it cost you? Looking to do this for my own farm.

    • @crazyfarmliving
      @crazyfarmliving  Год назад

      We have 20 acres and only needed to cover two sides, approx 2200 linear feet. Material costs were around $2.00 per linear ft. Hope that helps.

      We wanted to put solar cap lights on the fence and those are square, so we had to use square posts.

    • @crazyfarmliving
      @crazyfarmliving  5 месяцев назад

      We painted our fence white, so it has a layer of protection. We have 4-5 boards that warped. The majority of them stayed in great condition.

  • @f16troopermech
    @f16troopermech Год назад +10

    Not to be negative, but isn’t the nice side of the fence supposed to face the road and not the house? I’ve never seen a fence where the boards face the other side of the road?

    • @crazyfarmliving
      @crazyfarmliving  Год назад +7

      Lol! Great point. We had several discussions on the best way to set the fence. We even set up a sample run. In the end, we decided we liked it better the other way.

    • @joespanojr
      @joespanojr Год назад +1

      I was thinking the same thing. Not being negative at all it looks amazing but my wife would murder me if I did the fence facing in and not the road. I’m getting ready to start mine after see8ng this tip and tricks this was great

    • @mountainpathwoodsman
      @mountainpathwoodsman Год назад +25

      This is the proper way to face the runners if there is livestock being kept in. If the runners faced the road then a cow or horse could push the runners off. Good job.

  • @davidbrittenham4631
    @davidbrittenham4631 Год назад

    Now, after a year or so, how are the deck boards doing as far as getting warped? With that much space between posts, I'm betting the boards have warped enough that you are having to replace some, or had to add a vertical support in between your posts to keep everything straight. If not, you are very luck, so far.

    • @BMRNYC
      @BMRNYC Год назад +1

      You couldn’t be more wrong. I’ve been doing horse fences for 15 years and just showed this video to a client to explain the process and stumbled across your comment. This is pressure treated 5/4”decking, and there is no warpage even on jobs I did 15 years ago. And our posts are always 95” on center.

    Nooooooo. Don't paint it!!! You are just creating a lifetime of work as the paint flakes off and has to be redone over and over and over. Just let it weather naturally and blend in to the landscape.
