Great look'n fence guys! Thanks for posting (no pun intended). 😉
This would be a great recommendation for a tough fence awesome..in south east NC I would put post caps on just to keep the wasp from nesting inside the post looks great 👍
Wasps make an excellent case for caps.
Hi Guys Very Nice Job have watched a few of your videos this week when you were over in England & Scotland Have a good week from southern England Thanks 👍👍
We loved it over there!
Just a tip I learned I strip the verticals like you but the top and bottom I split with a cordless grinder to allow them to slide off taking care not to damage the wire they are around. It’s less tedious than straightening the kinks and forcing them off.
Cute work gentlemen, keep on keeping on
Very much appreciated. Have a great week. Keep on wearing them safety glasses.😅
Makes perfect fence. I've rarely seen a chainlink fence post or steel flag pole that needed to be replaced. About the only maintenance needed t-=for this kind is where the vibrating farm fence fabric wears through the galvanizing at the posts. (Yes it vibrates; wind will make it hum.) With an annual inspection you can see the orange rust spots forming and use galvanize spray to recoat them.
Now thats a great fence !! Over in west Florida & lower Alabama I think it's code to use red brand low carbon LOL. The big box farm stores that I'v been in ( RK & TSC ) don't stock high tensile it's special order . Just barb wire thanks for sharing .
Your pretty handy with that cordless bandsaw for notching those braces. You drive a lot of posts and therefore have to cut to grade...ss40 hard to cut and I'm sure you have your have yours go to saw and blades.
As an old guy for my own project I'd have to resort to setting my posts to elevation and use brace clamps and steel rail ends for my bracing.
Good job for showing how to build a quality fence!
Well thanks!
I love the practical reliance on technology that these guys have (except for that dowsing rod video).
For the record, it's a rare day we pull out the rods. 😆
I’m gonna have to pay for some plane tickets for you guys to get your ass here and do my fence😂😂😂
For southern states J4 Fencing and Sevices located in El Campo, Texas. No welding, they use clamp brackets, fast and efficient.
We use cedar post and telephone post for pulling post. We has post that have lasted for over 40 years.
yea well those 40 year old posts are there because they were doused in Creosote or PCP. not as big of a flex as you think, that stuff is straight up poison.
Can we get a video on that tool cat and pounder setup
Sharing this with my customer. Hopefully they like you guys enough to hire us... :)
They will. 😏😆
Please don't think I am a know it all just want to help and give a couple of ideas to consider ;
Good to see your brace kept low as higher will want to jack the King - Strainer up out of the ground you may have mentioned that but worth mentioning again as so many people are doing too high up on the Strainer Post now days.
If ground so hard to curl top of the Strainer when driven have you considered driving a Spike first as a pilot hole and that will save damage to the top of your driven post( not sure if you have Spike attachment available where you are.)
You guys do a great job.
NZ.
Do you all ever do 4 gauge cattle panel fences with wood posts?
It was good to see Dan working out with his dumbbell again. 😂
It's the only exercise I get!
How far apart are your metal posts and how often did you need to brace the post, like with H-posts, or buried into the ground?
Steel is great but cedar post stripped of all the bark will last a freaking long time
What about concrete posts? I have seen them used in Australia with success. Can't see much water building up in them, unlike steel pipe posts. But, I really like those T gripples because I just finished wrapping about 10 end posts with 6 1/2 foot page wire and my hands were almost numb with pain after that. Its a little costly but nothing is worth pain.
Wouldn’t they degrade from freeze thaw cycles though? I guess you would t have to worry about them in warm climates.
Looks GREAT! What's the rough life expectancy of this type fencing?
100 years
true
Just curious for somewhere like new orleans. Thats below sea level. You recommend no dig or concrete? And is the wood or vinyl better for hurricane winds? Thank you
There are several companies doing no dig fence in the New Orleans area. Sea level really doesn’t have anything to do with how well this works since we have proven how well it works in Florida Sand. The real determining factor is the soil: if you’re in a bog, even concrete won’t save you. The only way you’ll ever have success in poor soil conditions is by driving the posts deeper.
I personally can’t think of a single way that wood is better than vinyl. That really comes down to personal preference though.
@@SWiFence thank you! That really helps me out alot! Im new to thw channel but already love what yall do!
whats that cost per foot , roughly
As soon as I get my herd of unicorns and a flock of chickens that lay golden eggs I will build one of those.
🤣
When welding on Galvanized metal it produces toxic fumes and causes “metal fume fever” or “zinc shakes.” and lead poisoning.
When welding I would always keep a fan blowing the fumes away (Yes, I know WY is windy, I grew up in MT ) and wear a face mask when welding and spay painting Galvanized metal and paint.
Thank You for the movies about fences.
Hi, I was just curious what the spacing is between your two king posts and also would this “rance” brace technique work well with 2 7/8 drill stem pipe driven to a depth of 5ft? Thanks
10-12' in-between. And yes, that should work.
Sounds good, I appreciate it!
That is so much better than 1 million termination knots and a gut strain
Right?!
Does anyone else think this guy sounds like Hank Hill? 😂
What about drilling a pinhole near ground level to drain out any water?
I suppose you could.
Forgive me if this is a dumb question, I know the material is called Horse Fence but would you use this to fence in horses? Would this be as good as welded oil pipe fence and how would it compare in terms of price?
Yep! It's called horse fence because it's primarily used for horse projects. I'm afraid I really have no idea how it will compare in price to other styles of fence since pricing varies widely from one region of the country to another.
If you got river rock under there I’d dig that ish up and get your gold Brody!
I use cap just for anti wasp nests. Any thoughts on the use of the 8 sided posts (cut off from the solar industry) instead of the round. Are they the same 'guage'?
Wasps are an excellent reason for caps.
You can totally use those solar octoposts. We've seen it done.
@@SWiFence Is there a way to drive(no dig) those octopost that is not at 141k machine? It looks as if they 5" across flat to flat.
👌🏾 perf….
Could you use the T clips on both ends the cut the middle and crimp both side to keep the tension.
You can definitely use the t-clips on both ends.
@@SWiFence thank you for the reply. That’s the way I put sta-tite cattle fence. Only difference is I use the bend the wire and wrap it to save some money. You are right about it being a little bit more time consuming. I’m a DIYer. Keep on fencing. Good fences make good neighbors.
Is SWI and you no longer in Florida?
I am back in Wyoming, but SWI Florida is alive and well.
Are yall using strainrite crimps? I did not known they made gritted sleeves
Yep--Strainrite.
T4! Do you have to use strainrite crimps? Or can you use off brands?
Good question. I don't know. 🤷🏻♂️
"here in Florida" *rocky mountians in the backgrounds**
😆 If you're new to the channel it's legit confusing! For the record, I didn't say *here* in Florida. I said *in Florida*.
I moved to Florida for a few years and started a fence company down there. Now I'm back in Wyoming.
It wasn’t a bit confusing, some folks are just easily confused. 🫤
I want to see how you drove the posts!

How do you deal with metal few poisoning?
ruclips.net/video/zWF1qhYcJ7M/видео.html
Most people probably can’t afford a fence like that to put animals in
Most people probably can't afford to lose animals out of an inferior fence in that case
T posts and hog wire
Doesn't welding galvanized steel produce some dangerous gasses?
Yes
How do you set the metal posts in the ground?
These were about 5 ft in the ground.
@@SWiFence I meant how do you set them in the ground

@@SWiFence Thank you so much.
What model Protech machine is that? Thanks.
I was thinking of loading the interior of the post with foam to keep water out... is this "wrong-thinking"?
Yeah... this is going to make any future repairs a major pain. It's not needed or recommended. 👍🏻
@@SWiFence thanks! Saving me money already!!
Expand to Texas (DFW area) ;)
Working on it! 😆
Name one reason i would need this.
You're tired of fixing your fence. Your animals keep pushing it over. You want the least-maintenance over time you can get.
If that's not you then I guess you don't.
@SWiFence hard to justify the cost and time versus a well built cattle fence. Chances are if you can afford that you aren't the one doing the work. I would wager if you didn't have content creators, this fence that is so over the top awesomely expensive it would never exist for this purpose. I'm not shitting on the workmanship at all, but this like building a rocket ship to drive around the block. You would need about 10 generations for ROI for this project lol. I get it tho, everyone is a hater 🤣 my thing is just pitch it realistic homie!
Well believe it or not we didn't come up with this for the sake of the video. This is an established method in ag fence. ruclips.net/video/KoFkoSWBWbU/видео.html
@SWiFence yeah a video of a contest lol look like my first point of if you can afford that you aren't the one doing the work.. it plays here. I give a little more credit for if it is to bare up against actual tornados. But one thing that gripes me is that the whole thing is set and forget forever but we expect a video 4 years from now when you are out there replacing the gripples on your indestructible fence lol I did also think you used 4" down the whole run and not till you sent me that other 1 did I notice they scaled down to 2" so that's a big difference. Bc those 4" have to be over 130$ a piece on average which is close 80-90k in posts alone in a 1 mile strip which would be bananas i hope we can agree there at least! Either way like I said the workmanship is quality it is certainly the best way to do it resources aside.
I have so much to do on my ranch I really don’t want to have to deal with re-doing work or rebuilding anytime soon. I might find a cheaper alternative for the pipe which I would love to use… but I appreciate the methods and durable materials discussed. Not sure why it couldn’t be DIY but with good stuff used. People DIY with quality tractors, etc. It’s a free country and people have different priorities. I’m tired of buying crap and watching it fail quickly. Suit yourself. Don’t be a grump plz.
Great fence but,,,, the gripples are crap. As a Texas farmer and someone who has also installed fences for neighbors, I have seen numerous failures of gripples. Maybe it’s the Texas sun, but splicing in more wire and retrenching a gripple fence less than 5 years old is a pain.
Nice work, you built a standard Australian fence haha
Ha! Yeah... We're catching up. Slooooooooowly. 😏
Yup! connoisseur /kŏn″ə-sûr′, -soo͝r′/
noun
A person with expert knowledge or training, especially in the fine arts.
A person of informed and discriminating taste.
"a connoisseur of fine wines."
One well versed in any subject; a skillful or knowing person; a critical judge of any art, particulary of one of the fine arts.
We Americans put up with trash from the store unlike The Limeys and Germans and others around the world. Case in point: most livestock feed manufactured in The U.S. is pelletized dust I refuse to spend my money on.
I wish I could afford to put up a metal post fence like this on my horse property because I do not use electric fence and the average 1300-pound horse can push over a wooden post because the grass is greener on the other side and this is what they do all day.
The best woven fence we can get here is Red Brand horse fence, which stands the test of time. I have some on my property that is 25 years old and it is rusted but is still holding together good as new.
I think the rule is that if you use the word limey, you must also use kraut. But they’re both kinda rude 🙈 Thanks for the tip on Red Brand though!
Concrete the bottom of the cross brace.
Why do you guys do a "lazy loop"? First time i ever saw it was watching you guys and Luke from FFS.
The beginning was done right with the clips and at the end you guys need to use the same clips to terminate the fence ‘
You totally can. The ratchet strainers really are nice for pulling out any extra tension so we were trying to show them off, but you don't have to use them.
👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I was so confused when i skipped forward to when he talks about pine roots and live oaks roots you might run into in Florida. I live in Florida and I'm seeing small mountains in the background of this video and I'm thinking his boss must have lied and told him he was sending him to florida where there's sugar white sand but he was really sending him where there's lots of snow.
It's totally confusing if you're new to the channel. My brother moved to Florida for a few years and started a fence company down there. Now we all live in Wyoming.
How could anything as substantial, expensive and time consuming as that NOT WORK?
Cement inside the Post and I would've dipped them before burying.
Nah
If I ever win the lottery, I won’t tell anyone, but there will be signs…….
😆
Sorry guys that’s a really ugly tie off end, could you have used T Gripples the same as the start end or do a middle strain and use the swages?
It wasn't our best tie off. You can certainly use T Gripples on that side as well.
Great fence but way too much time and expense for most. Great vid though.
Next time grind where you are going to weld. As you has porosity in your weld. Not good
Steel is pretty expensive these days.
You speak the truth
Aren't those quik grips great? Try using them when you're hanging an ornamental gate with a header and closer, works great.
Damn shame I don't do this anymore, If I ever had to do one of those fences I now know how to do it.
If you don't put caps on you make a whole bunch of mosquito nurseries.
It's hard to believe that anybody could have any serious objections to galvanized steel posts.
You have an excellent point about mosquito nurseries!
@@SWiFence But a couple of drops of light weight motor oil in each post would probably be more cost effective...honestly, that just occurred to me.
You guys are definitely more than the most okayist fencing hommies around.
Aw shucks! Thanks Roger!
Caps don't keep the water out. They keep the wasps out.
Wasps are an excellent reason for caps.
Most expensive farm fence
Not if it lasts 60 years !
The quality version is not usually the cheapest up front.
@@samgardener324260? Will last longer than that haha
I think you would go broke here. Just saying.
Why by doing a fence once you never have to worry about again in your lifetime?
Hold Your Breath When Welding Galvanized bro... Not Good 4 The lungs!!!!
Umm you obviously have never seen or built an oil rod all welded livestock fence.. You should give back your Wyoming issued man card ..
You mean like this? ruclips.net/video/aeyMcnl3pks/видео.html
