That is awesome. Just finished 6km of boundary fence in hilly country. I can see this product helping sort out a number of fox and roo paths under the fence. Thanks Tim, love your work!
I just looked them up. Turns out they are stainless steel wire which was my main concern. I wouldn't trust galvanized wire (underground) to hold down a fence for long. That was why I originally abandoned the idea of using cheep, plastic and cable ground anchors for the job.
Hi Tim, With all the videos out there on how to tie a termination knot i can not find one that explains how to tie a termination knot under tension the other end to Finnish the straining process. Can you help. Have enjoyed lots of your videos. Regards Colin..
I've got wooden intermediate posts (knocked in by a contractor) and am thinking of using suspended droppers in between to maintain the vertical spacing of the fence wires, would this work well, or do you think a petrol-powered star picket driver would get posts into fairly riddled limestone country? Cheers.
Depends on the timber post spacing and the stock being run. If you’re worried about sagging or strengthening the fence then steels will help. If it’s just the spacing ( to stop sheep sticking their heads through) then droppers are a far cheaper option and work well. Yes, the powered post drivers are GOLD
@@FarmLearningTimthanks, loving the content. The intermediates are about 12m apart, but by the sounds of it a powered driver will do the trick. The neighbour has driven some pickets, so I imagine that's how it was done.
Hey Tim does the harpoon turn in the ground when you pull on it
Yes, a bit. Depends on the soil. That's why it bites.

Be careful to set the wire up properly and it should work a treat
Great product and even better back up service. I was having trouble with them after a quick chat with the maker, problem solved (operator error)
hi mate all these great little gadgets coming into the market good to see Aussie made even better great job mate

Brilliant. Can we see the outtakes of when you had the applicator stuck in the ground Tim?!!! Could go do with a bit of a laugh 😬
Hahaha. Not fit for broadcast.....
Great video and super useful tool Tim, hope I can buy one here in Portugal?
I find out today if I am buying a property. It will need about every fencing gadget that Tim has shown.
Start small mate!

I'll stick with star picket off cuts with a notch in them to grab bottom wire, at least I can recover and reuse them.
Thanks anyway Tim.
All good
great innervation that will change the way we fence and help the problem of livestock pushing under and breaking a new fence geat one Tim
Great bit of kit , didn't catch the price of the slide hammer harpoon, and would it have any other uses ?
Not sure on the price to be honest. I know that you can also get a plain steel rod with the head and use a hammer
G’day new sub from Qld...
Amazing content can you make a video of making barbed wire or go through the history of barbed wire
Look out. one on making barbed coming soon!
@@FarmLearningTim yeewwwww how cool thanks man
