THANK YOU! I live on an old peach farm w/ fam & dogs, am 75. My love is a gift, a sweet pug pup. Limbs branches shoots all over. Am gathering. A woven fence needs to be only 3 ft. I can & will make this! An aside, thank heaven Pugs can’t jump!❤️🌈 Thank you again from rural Colorado.
Thank you!! I want to try this. It makes me feel independent and self reliant! I will use guava sticks and they might even grow because they often grow when poked in the ground here in Hawaii.
Hi thank you so much for making this video! I am wanting to make mine like a wall for my back porch. But I do not have any ground to secure the posts. Just concrete. Would you happen to have any suggestions on how I can secure the vertical posts?
So we cant kill buckthorn and use it corpse to build a fence because its invasive? Seems like an illogical, emotional charged response to the mere name of an invasive species.

Oh, and this is perfect. Willdo looseweave deep & strong uprights. Wind here can get unreal.
Thanks for getting straight to the point mate lovely job cheers bud

Wow, a living wattle fence, what a cool idea!
I'm fairly certain the result would be a "hedgerow." That, in itself, would be a fine thing.
@@GiveitaGrow It would be a hedgerow. Not a wattle fence. And that's just great.
How do you prep the ground to insert your sticks?

I would ask a home improvement store. I would not want to make a suggestion that damaged your concrete. Sorry, and good luck!
I strive for non perfection... and love it
How far apart do you need to make each post from the next?
The closer together, the stronger it will be, but harder to weave. I made my posts about 1 foot apart.
Do the stakes eventually rot in the ground though? How long does the fence last?
Yes the stakes will slowly rot, just another reason to get very strong vertical stakes.
Biodegradable!! Made to not last forever! Love it!
Thanks for the vid, should the wood be green/fresh cut? Or should you let it dry/season first?
Green wood is more flexible and would probably be best, just make sure the vertical stakes are strong.
Great video! Thanks for sharing! How did you hammer your posts in? Did you cut the ends to make them sharp or anything?
Thanks! Yeah I cut the ends at an angle |/ and pounded them in with a sledge hammer, I think. You definitely want the stakes to be sturdy.
Hardest part is getting the materials
How deeply did you place the stake limbs?
As deep as I could, about 8 inches maybe. The deeper they are the stronger the should be.
I did it with Woodglut.
Woodglut plans are amazing!
Stodoys plans is a solid company with solid woodworking plans.
In my first work I always used Stodoys plans.
"Bendy"?
How about PLIABLE?
...or FLEXIBLE?
Bendy works.... but I see your point :)
Buckthorn? NoNoNO it is invasive. Use some other wood PLEASE
He’s cutting the wood down to make it, so this project is doing good in that regard!
So we cant kill buckthorn and use it corpse to build a fence because its invasive? Seems like an illogical, emotional charged response to the mere name of an invasive species.
I'm 10 man I can build a fence easier then that 😂
This takes a lot of sticks, and it works best if they are all the same size.
@@GiveitaGrow yes I know but I can't use a knife I'm not trusted
@@GiveitaGrow But u did really good
Thanks. I am saving up sticks for a new fence but they are all odd and gnarly, should make for one ugly fence :)
