Came across this channel 4 hours ago,and got stuck. I was lucky enough to be working on a farm for a couple of years here in Norway,and working the fence was one the highlights for me.
Good job enjoyed it....when i run fencing barb-wire ...i'm digging holes, pounding in t-posts, running barb wire and tightening it all by myself. Your gang makes it look easy with all the heavy equipment and extra helping hands.
Hi mate...🇦🇺 Nice job in the fence..👍 We just finnished running 300 km's new fence line.. wish we could just drive our star pikets in with a skid loader.. here we use a modified jack hammer to drive our star pickets you referred as t-post. Our end braces are fabricated from old steel railway line and steel sleepers...
It has been a very busy day on my end, I just watched this video, and not only have you brightened my day, I must admit, I really enjoyed this video. Don't ask me, I just did. Great job on the fence. It was like clockwork going up. And I want to throw a shout out to dad, when he said "get ready to pucker", I laughed so freeking hard, I was like get me a pamper. I find him enjoyable every time, and his colorful funny quips are awsome. Thanks for the continued and regular videos. I look forward to each one.✌️🌻🌈🌎👍🖖. Professor Dewey L.
Thank you for the Vlog. Very interesting I always wondered how they did that. Looks like you have all the right tools for all the right jobs. Thank you for bringing me along. Have a good day hunting. I hope you get a big deer with many points. I wish I can send you pics of my 8 pointer. Have a good rest of your day Cole.
Thanks for the video....hammer machine is so needed ones around farm. I learnt so much from your hard works...back in those days...fense putting up need lots of hands....now a few hands only.... PPE must put on what ever job we do buddy....safety is utter most, I lost my indext left hand finger tip....woah....safety is so right at my face....human take things for granted.. never assume it won't happened. You need face shield with helmet...tedious but no choice...safety is profits..which one we choose...?
Interesting video! Using the skid loader and the loader tractor made that go smoothly. I made some notes about your h-posts for the next time I need to place a fence. Thanks
Good video, well done. You guys got a pretty good system. Just one thing I don't understand......why do so many western ranchers still use barbed wire? Personally I hate the stuff, I find it hard to work with, especially winding up an old fence, and it's hard to repair. Plus animals get cut up when they try and go over it, both livestock and wildlife. I'm sure you've all seen udders sliced up or a deer tangled up and hanging over a barbed wire fence. We only use 12.5ga high tensile smooth wire and electrify it, animals respect it more than barbed wire and they don't cut themselves up when they do go over it......and it's easy and quick to repair. And it lasts, we have some 30 yrs old that sill looks and works like new.
I personally have never seen udders tore up or an animal caught in barb wire. All I have ever seen is a little hair in the fence. Otherwise, we think the barbed wire is very reliable, quick to put up, and relatively cheap.
When i farmed years ago, i had one of the first post pounders, it was made by Shaver, and, was mounted to the front of my IH 656. My wife would drive the tractor, and, i would pound in the posts. We used all wood posts, so there were a lot of them. I used the pencil sharpened ones, but, we had hills and uneven ground. The driver had manual adjustment to plumb the driver, so, that the posts would be plumb. It worked great, i used to use my three point auger to dig the corners, which set in cement. I also had a three point cement mixer, it would mix about a third of a yard at a time, and, i could haul the cement to whrere i wanted it. Back in the day, in Minnesota, farmers used to use white oak for the fence posts, they were split, and, they were pretty rot resistant, they tended to rot right at the ground line, i would pull them out, pull the staples, and, carefully cut them into fire wood with my chain saw, lucky, i never hit an old staple. Fall seems like the perfect time to do fencing,, cooler, and, no bugs.
I really enjoyed this episode! It was so much fun watching a basic fencing project. Soooo much easier than when my grandfather and uncles put up fence...it was the old post hole digger, lots of sweat and time. It’s interesting that you like to fence... How many brothers do you have? A little backstory on your family maybe? I got the impression that you’re an only son.
what a nice little bro letting big bro hunt while you fence,, I have put up miles & miles of fence in my 60 years on earth but never ever have I like I more than hunting. so that gets me thinking you got hit in the head by a post sometime in your lifetime... lol p.s. I never got to use a skid steer or I may of liked it a lot more if i could have
Outstanding video.. Out standing in your field. LOL. I like geometry and nice straight lines and am a Engineer and we tend to get kinda fussy with that. Nice straight lines and it does not look like it was your first day at the rodeo /fencin. LOL
I think Benj. Franklin, said,"good fences make good neighbors". Here in Minnesota, if the fence line seperated two neighbors, one had to build one half, and, maintain it. I do not remember if i was supposed to do the right half, or the left half.
You may find trying a piece of half inch flat with a hole the size of your ties better and easier than pliers for tying of. It would need to be about six inches in lengtnl
Hey you guys know any companies that do the vibratory post drivers for skid steers? i want to set one up where it has a clamp on it so you can grab a post from a bundle and drive it into the fence line without getting out and needing an extra guy.
Why are your brothers so shy want to get to know them too they're almost as handsome as you I think but not as Dad dad's best looking dude I've ever seen tell Mom she wants to throw them away I'm here
It's a family affair! Nice to see it too. Good video Cole .

I look at this from a dad's perspective and I know Brian has to be loving every bit of this process. Boys all together again. Awesome video.
This a good video, shows how it is to put up fence and how it is to fence for us town folks.
It’s nice to able to your equipment to every post hole in the flat land.
That was the best way I’ve ever seen to put up fence!
Fascinating! Always wondered how fencing was done! Thank God for machines to put those fence posts in.
For some odd reason I enjoy fencing a lot too, especially repairing old fences.
I enjoyed building fence too. It’s satisfying.
We always learn something…thanks

Family Fencing...what fun
Well done to you all more hands the better
Y'all made that look easy!
You guys do fencing really well. I like watching it get done. Those bobcats are pretty versatile.
I love dads precise fence post measuring system
Great video good luck building your fence
I love fencing too. “En Garde!”
This is a #MondayMotivation video for me. All of you did so much work for one day. Very inspiring.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video!!!
Glad to hear!!

Awesome job TY for sharing
It was neat. Good fencing lessons.
You guys could be on the US Olympic Fencing Team!
I would try out for that!

Sounds like that fence is sturdy and last looong time. 👍

Great video, keep doing what you do.
More of My Three sons the whole family Tami he is so blessed jelly jelly jelly
Didn't know they made post drivers for skid loaders. It was a neat video. Thanks!
what a nice little bro letting big bro hunt while you fence,, I have put up miles & miles of fence in my 60 years on earth but never ever have I like I more than hunting.
so that gets me thinking you got hit in the head by a post sometime in your lifetime... lol
p.s. I never got to use a skid steer or I may of liked it a lot more if i could have
thanks for the videos enjoy them alot
i enjoy fencing too who knew
You guys make it look easy. Never seen posts put in that way. 🤔
It was all right🤠👍🏻
Outstanding video.. Out standing in your field. LOL.
I like geometry and nice straight lines and am a Engineer and we tend to get kinda fussy with that.
Nice straight lines and it does not look like it was your first day at the rodeo /fencin. LOL
Loved it 🤘
great work. i loved it.
Have you ever put in used drill stem pipe for your H brace? We love using the used drill stem for fencing it will last for ever!
Sure have! Never tried it before
Love your vids keep up the good work wile we go work some calf tomorrow
Do you ever get a chance to have any fun off the farm? Wow, the work you guys do in a day.
Some days when it rains haha
I think Benj. Franklin, said,"good fences make good neighbors". Here in Minnesota, if the fence line seperated two neighbors, one had to build one half, and, maintain it. I do not remember if i was supposed to do the right half, or the left half.
Yea my dad says if you are standing in your own field and looking at the fence, you are responsible for the right half of the fence
Hi 👋
You need a mower for your bobcat. Make it luck good.
It was smart to roll out the barbed wire with an iron bar in the 3 lift.
I remeber mending a fence standing on a 5 gallon bucket with a sledge hammer where we couldnt get the hydraulic pounder in
You may find trying a piece of half inch flat with a hole the size of your ties better and easier than pliers for tying of. It would need to be about six inches in lengtnl
Rebuild fences Down south tx over 104° 🥵 !!!
You gona work everyday day your home 9 days? Good job
Any news on when merch will be available? Love watching ur videos :)
Its taking longer than expected, but the designs are made and so it shouldn't be too much longer
I had beef cattle and it seemed like the only thing I got done was do fencing. What are the ages of your brothers?
Why a mixture of post types??
That looked like Red Brand barb wire? I worked in that dept. for 18 years before moving to the steel mill side.
Yea we've been using red brand for a long time, its pretty good stuff
Family affair good to see
Why not all wood post or metal post? Good video 👍👍
It is faster and cheeper to put in the metal posts, but the wood posts dont lean over when cattle push against them. Good question
nice work,,,, expensive
I have done fencing it is a fun thing to do except getting tore up from the wire
Why do you guys use railroad tie corners instead of steel corners?
Preference
Hey you guys know any companies that do the vibratory post drivers for skid steers? i want to set one up where it has a clamp on it so you can grab a post from a bundle and drive it into the fence line without getting out and needing an extra guy.
I do not, and we have never tried any before, seen a few videos of them being used though.
I love your channel and watch every video by the way I have a TH-cam channel
Get some descent fencing pliers,
I'm guessing the pulled metal post is rusted?
Yea some are snapped, some are bent, and a lot of them are an older style that do not hold the wire in place as well.
👏👏👏❤😎
Hey bud I live in Philip SD and u make fence fixing tooooo hard and use fencing pinchers
Was that 2 point barb wire?
Yes
Who is Robby and Jacob?
my brothers
@@SonneFarms What no horses to roundup the cattle? Just Joshing!
Why are your brothers so shy want to get to know them too they're almost as handsome as you I think but not as Dad dad's best looking dude I've ever seen tell Mom she wants to throw them away I'm here
Why not reuse the t posts?
We save them if they are good
First View.
You get out and deer hunt yet?
Went yesterday morning, only saw 3 doe. I better go out again tomorrow morning
That such a waste of money it’s a fence isn’t it mate
