1st class advice , but here in england we,ll do this with second grade old railway sleepers for uprights , ones too far gone for construction , they last 30 - 40 years if not regularly flooded . these can be post driver-ed in if you water the sites for them for 3 days , then get through the turf with a hand spade , or if you,re fortunate enough to have access to a 360 machine , you just push them straight in . Good cattle & feral animal fences .

Run a string bro

Where is the beer cooler located? I also use a shorter drill bit

Wow that first hole i saw you did was beautiful. Went right down didn't twist your body etc. Digging holes in North Carolina well....I'm like 20 min per hole with a tamp bar.

Many places that sell those gas powered augers, also sell an extension, for it, as well. (Including harbor freight.)

And how!

thank you for this. Planning my fence and these tips will be helpful.

Wait do you guys don’t concrete it ?

What is the make and model of your drill unit for the 3/8 on wood brace?

Thank you Sir

That's what I need to stop the camels breaking through my star picket fence and eating my mango tree seedlings.

awesome video, very clear. going to be doing this in the spring. thank you!

Nicely done

Thank you; well done. Nice-looking assistant too : )

Awesome video. Thanks! Just purchased my first property last winter, and have been gearing up to build a perimeter fence. Videos like yours help big time.

Really like the H braces. Makes a good tite fence.

Next step is to be sure to tie off your fence to the close post, not the far post. That way you can center it so there is no post twisting which of course loosens the fence.

Very helpful video!

Hey, What kind of wire is it that you use for this? Is it the same wire used in electric fencing?

You do NOT want your post "as level as possible." Posts need to be PLUMB.

Smart fence builders learn to soak the bottom 4 feet of their wood posts in a 50/50 mixture of old motor oil and diesel fuel ! Those non treated wood posts will turn into cellulose over time ! Happy fencing !

I am currently building a perimeter fence on a 1/2 acre lot with dimensions 127’ by 172’. I am using 8 foot by 6 in treated posts and set the corner posts about 24 inches in the ground. My plan is to build corner h brace fence and I am afraid I may have set the posts below the recommendation of 40 to 50% of the post for h brace. Looking back I should have at least set the posts 3.5 feet to 4 feet into the ground. Also, when I set my corner posts I set them in commercial grade concrete/cement at 24 in. My question is will this affect the way my h brace will hold up? My next step is to set the brace posts and cross bars but I am sort of at a standstill because the more I read into it it looks like I should have set them at 3.5 feet to 4 feet deep. Since it is such a short run I am thinking it might not impact it much. I plan on running 4 strands of 14.5-15 gauge barbless wire and I don’t plan on putting too much tension on it. I would like to get your thoughts on this. Thanks!

at 10:48 what is that tool called?

It's always amazed me how different people build fences so differently. And every one of them is convinced that their way is the correct way.😁....... Example: Those size of posts you are using for corner posts, my family would have used as line posts. The posts we always used for corner posts, were twice that diameter!.....I grew up on a farm. Cattle and horses. Over time, we wound up replacing every fence around every pasture, because the original fences were decades old when my parents bought the properties.

Wife pick the shirt out for you bro?

When this guy put in the second vertical post in the hole he had it on the wrong side of the wire was pretty bright even though he corrected his mistake he never admitted it.

Bad

Thats one of the best makita drills ever made. Got 2 of them. They dont shut down from supposed overheating and are beasts. Pins? Why not lag bolts?

Great vid mate

I was building fences with top stays in 1960. This is very old techno stuff.

I would love for you to say " good ol' fashion pro-pain" 😉

Can you just secure the horizontal post with long timber lock screws? Or a long nail? So you dont have to drill a precise hole?

Man your doing it the hard way. I set my post to where the horizontal piece fits snug between the 2 post then drill all the way through the vertical post and into the horizontal post then drive my pin in.

you are crazy? topography?

No cement?

how often would you put an H brace on a run? Im about to run 2600 ft of cross fence.

Sometimes you need that Ph.D (post hole digger). That’s what we say out here at least 😂

young man , don't drill this would be wrong way put 2 - H - BRACE IN

young man , wrong putting brace post / take 2 - h brace not one brace

Where do you get those pins for the H-brace? Good video. Thanks,

Ah... posts aren't "level." They are plumb.

Thank you, Anson 4-H, for all that you do for our county!

Welcome new friends, look forward to connecting with you. Sounds like a great channel. Sounds like y’all got it figured out. Blessings

Y'alls dirt looks a heck of a lot better than ours does! If we could dig holes that easy we would have been done a week ago. :)

Very informative!
