Cool design and cool video 👍

@@Ambrose4695 cheers 👍👍

Great work. So many different ways to do corner posts and this one looks strong. Treaded rod at the bottom instead of wire would be my preferred method

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Cheers mate 👍

[@cheryesido364]

Brilliant job

Thankyou!

Thanks Pauline 👍

[@eddieandjulieklysz458]

That's a great idea plus a cost saver.

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Cheers 👍👍

[@BronnieBee]

love your work! I am unlikely to ever need to build a fence but Corey your skills and presentation are engaging. What an asset your knowledge and skills are to Rockpile, Great viewing as usual! 🐝

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Thankyou so much!

[@chynalani87]

What a great video! I would really love some plans for this kind of set up as its a great design

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Someone else mentioned plans too… we’ll see what we can pull together.

[@crazydaverocks]

Nice job mate. One thing I thought of. If you drop two spots of weld about 10mm apart down the corner post every 100mm (or so) you'll have little 'nobs' that you can sit the wires in (as you wrap them around) and it will stop them potentially sliding up and down the post as you tension your wires. Useful in case your corner post isn't always perfectly vertical (and they will always move a little). Or you could drive tek screws in and it will do the same thing.
By the way @reeceplumbing - for the love of dog, sponsor this man a new t-shirt, he's given you guys so much free publicity. 😉

I think I’ve finally convinced him he needs a new lot of shirts 😂 -Amanda

Noice work, are yes tha rock we’ve got some epic ones of those dyna bolts straight into that

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Yah there might be some spots with a full granite shelf we’ll have to do that 👍👍

[@paulmarchmont8699]

Awesome vid... when I need this done.. which will be soon. I will send the flight details...

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

😂😂 you got me on speed dial mate no prob

[@Ptmence]

G'day, mate, I admittedly did fast forward through a lot of the video, so apologies if you've addressed it somewhere.
When doing a corner end assembly, it's much stronger to have a single stay arrangement pointing into the paddock at whatever angle is halfway between both strains. If, for whatever reason, you can't have the stay pointing on that angle (machinery hazard/goat escape), the closer you can offset two stay assemblies towards that angle, the better.

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Yeah 100% correct there mate, it was mainly to avoid an extra hazard but you’re right about the strength 👍 … fast forwarded…?! C’mon 😂

[@MarkW-Aus]

Love the idea of the threaded rod at the high point , rather than the long piece of threaded rod at the base to put pressure on the post. So easy to come and re-tension later if needed.
Is that all made from 50nb 2.3mm Galv pipe ?

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Cheers mate. The post is 50nb the diagonal is 32nb abd both are 2.3mm

[@arohafarr7189]

Amazing technical brain. Aussie Tuff, Aussie Smart 😊 Are you a engineer Corey? If not what is your trade Corey? We enjoy watching you, Amanda, Hippo and Dozer here in NZ. Many Thanks

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

Thankyou!! Gyprocker by trade (both me and Manda) but also qualified welder who loves engines and making stuff.

[@cheryesido364]

Are you going to patten those and sell them. You'd make a fortune.

[@RobHill-t2o]

Details for bracket? Plans?

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

You reckon people might be interested?

[@dannyfrommyceswickfarm1758]

I am about to embark on some fencing for our residential property some of your brackets would help, there's also our farm so yes I think people would be very interested

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

@@dannyfrommyceswickfarm1758 what would be most useful, just the plans so you get them laser cut yourself or a little kit with the bracket, threaded rod and bolt or just the bracket?

[@dannyfrommyceswickfarm1758]

@@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead just the plans for the brackets would be easier

[@trevorwilton2723]

Why are you using the ceramic insulators backwards, they are stronger in compression not expansion.

[@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead]

@@trevorwilton2723 yeah realised a bit late, will fix it on the remaining runs 👍
