Not the most exciting video on the channel but an important part of my fence project that took more planning that than many people might think. To see the rest of the project the links are in the description.
Great work. Amazing planning and attention to detail and brilliant on taking the longer route to cut the pickets to length. Its cleaner and just an overall better feel knowing you took the time and extra care to make it right. Craftsmanship at its finest. Measure twice cut once mentality.
@@ThatTechTeacher427 That was my Barclay, who passed away maybe 8-10 years ago. In total, I've had 8 Goldens, and every one of them was an absolute joy! My current girl, Ginger, is a blind Golden that I rescued about 5 years ago...
next year use the bobcat with the auger to pull out the old post. Save your back and time and you can get the bob cat in your yard thru the nice gate you build. Nice video!
This fence is tuff‼️‼️love the voice over with the drone cam😏😏you make this stuff look easy peasy 😮💨😮💨keep up the good work tech teach you nice with it😉😉
Did you measure from high to low to get your rails looking parallel to the ground? It looks great but cant tell if you just eyeballed or measured on each post
In this case I marked the same height I had been using on the post at the top of the hill and the one on the bottom then ran a string line between the two. Where ever the string hit the middle post on the hill is where the stringer was going to land.
I’m building a fence on my property now, it is on a slope but not as bad as yours, I’m kinda stuck on how tall to make my posts and get everything straight still
Just wondering about the trees at the back. I hated my low limbs giving sinister characters and a crazy huge neighbor dog easier access to hop over and harass my dogs. What I thought I heard you say was you trimmed them up. I trimmed my lowest limbs off to about 5 feet above the fence, not sure what your plans are. Also, I like the bottom finished look but I have dogs that would dig their way out of the holes if they can see the neighbor dogs. I used gravel in spots they dug up, but those dogs figured that out. So I when I replaced my back and side fences, I concreted under my fence panels and made a packed gravel walkway around the perimeter of my yard with a metal border to keep the gravel in the pathway. This fixed the digging and also stopped weed eating near the fence.
Those are all good ideas. I have a rubber fake mulch product that I am going to put under fence to help with weeds and erosion that I will show next spring. Unfortunately for me the shadow box fence is very easy to climb over for the limbs just over the fence dont make much difference for me.
I thought the same thing! I was also thinking using them for plant trellises, like beans and tomatos could be nice... I think the back corner there could be such a nice area for garden boxes, and it would feel really peaceful and secluded and give a nice backdrop for the pool!
I want to let you know that one tree that is very close to your fence is never going to stop growing, you should have made a box around it, or something, because one day it's going to push your fence out of alignment.

Exciting and educational. It helped me.
Great work. Amazing planning and attention to detail and brilliant on taking the longer route to cut the pickets to length. Its cleaner and just an overall better feel knowing you took the time and extra care to make it right. Craftsmanship at its finest. Measure twice cut once mentality.
Thanks I appreciate it!
Fantastic! And I loved seeing your fur-babies! (Gotta love those Goldens!)
Thanks! We love our goldens, like the one in your picture!

Loving the quality of your work and your videos, keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
I liked the way you measured twice and cut once
I heard it works best that way
I'm moving 2 fence panels and this vid is very helpful! Ty for this.
That’s amazing how you did that good planning
that 'mistake' was so dramatic with the music hahahah
Great video, love watching these and your attention to detail is impressive
Thanks I appreciate it!
Brilliant video again, love the content! Keep up the good work. FF fam for life!
Thanks! Will do! Hell ya!

your channel is great dude. cool to see you doing stuff you love. hope all is well.
Thanks I really appreciate that! Same to you!
Fantastic job..
Great video.
At what measurement did you mark for the top stringer so you could put a string line ?

Thanks!
Did you measure from high to low to get your rails looking parallel to the ground?
It looks great but cant tell if you just eyeballed or measured on each post
Great job thanks .. How did you set height of horizontel 2x4 when grade starts to drop?
In this case I marked the same height I had been using on the post at the top of the hill and the one on the bottom then ran a string line between the two. Where ever the string hit the middle post on the hill is where the stringer was going to land.
Ok thanks was having hard time to measure as grade not even.

Great video! Did you cut the end of your stringers at an angle for pole sections on a slope?
Shout out to your dad that helped.
He does come in handy!

Rather than removing the old fence posts, you could re-use them to light up your backyard with some lighting.

Woodglut has very good and accurate plans.
Woodglut has a lot of plans to choose from.
