- In this video, I will walk you through the entire process of building a guardrail, providing detailed, step-by-step instructions. This DIY project is something my dad and I tackled together, and we’ll be sharing our experience as a daughter and father working side by side. We will cover everything from gathering materials and tools to the final installation, ensuring that anyone, regardless of experience or age, can follow along and complete this project successfully.
My favorite dynamic duo! Your dad is Amazingly skillful.. Tiff you are blessed 🙌🏽
Thank you. That is so kind of you to write. Dad and I enjoy working together. And, we are so grateful for the support. ❤️❤️❤️
@Tiffanysfarm Greetings Queen, have you ever applied for a micro loan with USDA?
We are working on the application and had a question. I'll send you a snail mail😉 Ty
@@mzwisdom7504 No. We have never applied for any of the USDA loans.

Hey Family 👋 it looks beautiful! Great job, we love & enjoy watching!! ❤
Thank you. We are so glad you enjoyed the video. ❤️❤️❤️ Dad and I appreciate your support. ❤️❤️❤️
the star bit that you spoke of is called a T25 bit. also - its important to note, not all treated lumber is created equally. Timber rated at Extreme weather is NOT the same as a GROUND CONTACT rating. also imporant to point out - that for applications in ground contact and treated lumber, the fasteners need to be galvanized or coated/ treated It does look nice, great work! Never pay another man what you can do yourself.
Thank you for the info! Dad and I appreciate you sharing the tips.
❤😊. The fencing looks great 👍.
Thank you so very much. We are so glad you think so. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow! You’ll did a great job!
Thank you. We are glad you like it. ❤️❤️❤️ We appreciate you watching. ❤️❤️❤️

It's very elegant!
Thank you so much. I am glad you think so. Your compliment means a lot.
Everything coming together smoothly I see, have you every thought about installing night time flickering lights that look similar to fire at night? If I'm not mistaken they come on with solar energy boxes that activates with moonlight and a timer, i could be wrong about how they are powered but they look beautiful at night.
That seems like a wonderful idea! I have not thought about night time flickering lights like that, but it seems like they could really add a magical, cozy ambiance to the area. You are right that some of these lights are solar powered, with sensors that activate them at night based on light levels. They mimic the effect of fire, which would definitely create a nice, warm glow. I will look into them. Thank you for the suggestion. ❤️❤️❤️
Very Nice
Thank you. We appreciate your kind words. ❤️❤️❤️
Love this good looking out...
Thank you. We are glad you love the guardrail. It was a bit of work, but definitely worth it for the safety and look. ❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations
Thank you so very much for the encouragement. We appreciate it. ❤️❤️❤️
It's beautiful!! Just wondering if you are going to paint or stain it. If so, what color?
Thank you. Dad and I are so glad you like it. We are still deciding between paint and stain, but we are leaning towards a rich, warm tone to complement the design. We will keep you posted on the final choice.
🖤
❤️❤️❤️
Working hard! Nice day to get some stuff done. Ok, Miss Muscle😂😂
It sure was a very nice day for getting some work done. Thank you for watching. ❤️❤️❤️
You have to have the right tools, or your project will become a nightmare. Nice work
Thank you. We agree. You are absolutely right. Having the right tools is essential! Dad and I are glad you liked the project. We are so happy with how the guardrail turned out.
Now that’s nice.
Thank you. Dad and I are so happy with how the guardrail turned out. ❤️❤️❤️
Baby girl you need to purchase a old used Truck just for this property 😊😊
Thank you for the suggestion. Dad and I are happy with the way things are for now but I appreciate the thoughtfulness. ❤️❤️❤️ We will purchase a truck eventually but we are happy to keep going for now. ❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
The fence looks great, but why didn't you guys use cement? Will it remain sturdy and upright? I don't know anything about fence building but I always see cement used.
That is right. Dad and I used a combination of gravel and tamped earth to secure the posts in this DIY project. This method utilizes a proven technique for stability without concrete, although you may choose to use concrete if you prefer.
O wow, I'm 45 mins below Macon
Macon has a nice Home Depot off of I-75. The women who greeted me and helped with my pickup were not only good looking but provided really great customer service. I was impressed with the quality of service in Macon and the quality of the store.
A flat piece of clear epoxy to cover the picture cuz it's beautiful
I will definitely keep that in mind when I am putting the finishing touches on the guardrail. I bet it would protect the picture and really make it pop. Thank you for the idea.
Im concerned, I didnt see a segment regarding concrete footings for the posts to address uplift and shear strength concerns. 4 feet isnt very deep with bluetooth post footings
Great question! We did not use concrete footings for the posts. Dad and I installed a wood fence with 6 x 6 posts at least 4' into the ground. We definitely DID NOT set them in concrete. The concrete will facilitate rot even if the posts are treated. We made the cross members with 2 boards and spaced the posts no more than 4'. This will stop a car from going over the edge at low speed.
Wow, so no cement was needed to set the post?

Thank you, that's great information to know. Love you guys channel, such an inspiration.
God bless you both.
Hey tiffany, did you ever figure out if the mother was separated from the doe on your property? Perhaps when they were fixing the gate? Never mind they probably killed that doe already.😒
I saw the baby with his mom several times after posting more no trespassing signs. I am not sure what happened after that, but let us hope they are both okay.
@Tiffanysfarm That's good to know! Thank you for letting me know.
Had any trouble with your neighbors any more?
The last major incident occurred around Thanksgiving:

And, the sheriff’s office was finally able to provide a civil service for us:

Hey Tiff, buy a drone , $200 it can fly around your property when you want, day or night, DJI drone, even your daughter can fly it, very easy, let me know if you would like more info, just another tool great to have, keep been bless.
That is a great idea! We appreciate the suggestion. ❤️❤️❤️ I will tell Dad in the morning to see if he wants to invest in one.
Tiffany, I'm helping my friend build a farm in New England, would you please send me a list of all the equipment and wood board sizes. I'm a Baby Boomer and was trying to type and write everything but I couldn't write fast enough. I wish we could copy and paste. Thank you, from your Gullah Geechee farmer❤😂🎉😅😊.
Thank you so much for commenting. Dad and I would be happy to help you with a list of equipment and wood board sizes for your farm. It is wonderful that you are helping your friend build in New England. I understand the challenges of keeping up with everything, so I will add a detailed list in the video description section as soon as I can. Sending you all the best from one farmer to another.
@@Tiffanysfarm Thank you so much.
Tiffany, you need a truck! 🛻
Dad and I will eventually be blessed with a nice truck. But, we plan to keep moving, growing, and building and not wait on the truck to come.
ahhh- i dont know if thats going to stop a car bud. but its pretty.
Dad and I made the cross members with 2 boards and spaced the posts no more than 4'. This will stop a car from going over the edge at low speed.

I will build it higher then that.
The guardrail that Dad and I built is actually the perfect height for a car or truck.
Thank God for gasoline ⛽ and sparkplug.
Yes, the auger really helped us to dig these 38 holes 🕳️ in the ground.
Are you still having problems with idiot tresspassers.
We are still experiencing some issues but we cannot allow anyone to block our progress and prevent us from doing something great each day.
