Thank you Sir. You’re the living proof that there are still good people left willing to share wisdom without ripping off your bank accounts!! Blessings
I appreciate that
Above and beyond Dan. Nicely did, even I could understand, with that explanation. That was pure edutainment.
Excellent video as always, very entertaining and perfect for fencers new to the trade and the diy crowd. 👍👍👍
Nice Video, I've been repairing fences that have been cut by thieves for over 20 years and this is the first time I heard of those ties you use and I like them. I'm going to look for those for sure.

Thank you for this video 😊 I just bought some used fencing for my dogs and I had no idea what I was supposed to do 🥰
Excellent, and detailed tutorial. You guys are on point.
Thanks Carson!
I bought the yellow mesh puller you sell and it is a time saver! no more cables or clips and i can get 3 times the amount stretched up and hang now
Love it! 🤘🏻
You're an excellent teacher. Thank you!
Thank you! 😃
Good deal dude! Excellent instructional vid!🤙🤙👍💯🙏
Appreciate it!
This guy is awesome man great videos
I appreciate that!
Awesome information 👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video just subscribed 👍
Your TH-cam videos have been so helpful. Have you ever dine a video on installing a Chainlink fence with a large on the perimeter? I need some help. At this point I plan to put terminal posts on both sides of the tre following the fence line. Then I plan to put a low tension piece of Chainlink between the terminal posts to as low for some growth
Very professional presentation. Thanks, Tim in northern TN
Thanks Tim!
Could I pay you a consulting fee to help me put a parts list together and the proper tools and supplies to purchase and some help discussing some installation tips? I'm looking to add fence intsallation to our business portfolio and want to get off to a good start. In the mean time, I've liked and subscribed a long time ago. Love your videos.
Wish I had those tools 20 years ago.
We're as a Wire Fence factory for many years 😄
good job,, thanks for shearing.
Thanks. Very informative.
You're welcome!
Definitely need this knowledge
Thank you!!!! I've been watching all of your videos and I started my fence today! Question: How do you turn corners??? Must you start a new strand of fabric and tension bars??? Great Videos!!!
I'm going to delete your other 3 identical comments. Don't be offended. 😉
Yes, if you're turning a corner you would use a terminal post at the corner and consider that a new run. 👍🏻
I'm not offended, I just wasn't sure where you'd see the comment, and wanted to be sure to reach you. I didn't think wrapping the fabric around the corner terminal post would be good, I was thinking of just ending it and starting it again on the other side. Thank you. Really enjoy your videos, I've watched it at least 20 times and took good notes and have all the equipment I need, now I'm digging my wholes, by hand to save money, old dogs can learn new tricks! I'm a Granny. I've already got my first Terminator post in and am starting the next. I'll put the line posts in after I have the corner posts in. Last my gate! Yea!!!! Thank you!
Love it! You've got this! You'll do great! 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Great video, very informative in my opinion. 👍
Wish I lived in Wyoming. Having a heck of a time finding a company with integrity here in South Fl that will do my gates for a reasonable price.
Love this comment, but I think if you like south Florida you wouldn't be a huge fan of Wyoming. 😁❄️🥶
@SWiFence You are mistaken. I hate S Fl and I am here due to circumstances.😭😭😭
I love the countryside and mountains and rivers.
Dan! I finished phase one of the fence, next come the other sides and the gate. I'm sending you an email of my fence, see😊 how a 67 year old Granny was able to build a beautiful fence all alone! Thank you for all of your videos! Your email came back not sendable...oh well, I'd so wanted to share. Take care now!
Thanks so much for sharing that news! I'm so glad you were able to accomplish what you set out to do! You're an inspiration!
Thank you!!!@@SWiFence
I used Stainless Zip Ties but I would 100% use those.
How do you find the 2 strand 12ga wire for the tension wire?
Great Video, Thank you for doing it.
You're welcome!
Learned alot ,Thank you
You are welcome!
*Very easy 🥳*
Thank you once again…🤘🏽
Thanks for the language of chain link fence beside normal English!
You bet!
I need a gate this exact size.
I have an older 15ft long dog run and the door opens into my fence in back yard and I want to cut out a portion about 2 ft x 2ft and turn it into a gate so my chickens can get into the fenced back yard and roam free-ish, lol. I want to be able to open and close it with the standard gate latch to help keep them safe too.
I think I can get the gist on what I need to do from this video but do you or does anyone else have any suggestions?
This might be of help as well: th-cam.com/video/eWmv83ZK_YQ/w-d-xo.html
Hey dan! How about using angles instead of round post?
Awesome! Thank you!
No worries!
Hello,
I’d like to ask for your advice. I have a fence with 19 terminal posts in a straight line. The terminal posts are 2-3/8” inches and 6ft tall above the ground. They are embedded 24 inches down in concrete. Approximately 15 of these posts are not plumb. They are slightly not level. Approximately 5 degrees off. I have a top rail going. I have also a top rail bar that is tension banded between all of these posts. My worry is that over time the terminal posts will continue to tilt. Should I correct them now or is it not worth the effort? What kind of lifespan can I expect if they are going to continue to tilt? Thank you in advanced.
Lol this guy is so funny lol I love these bideos
Can you tell me what's all included in a corner post kit 2 3/8 kit 5ft tall
Dan,
Over the long term and even the short term the Dewalt battery drill will smoke with the twist ties I found. Twist ties work great. I presently use corded Bosch 8.5 amp hammer drill on drill mode. Would welcome a battery drill which would not smoke. Thoughts? Thank you!
Hmmm, that's interesting, so I will share some history with you. We have never had a drill smoke, but we have had the 1/4" impacts smoke just from use and getting hot, this was often in impacts that had brushes. As soon as they came out with brushless motors our problems stayed in the past and have not come up since. As far as tying ties, we never had a drill smoke no matter how many ties we put through it. Dont forget its best to have the drill on the lowest speed. Hope this helps.
We are enjoying your videos. Can a gauge 9 twist tool work with the 11gauge easy twist tie? I ask because I bought 1 today in Toronto and it has the number 9 on it although I asked them for an 11gauge tool. I am heading to the Caribbean at the end of this month to do our own fence. Thanks to your videos.
If it does work (I'm not real confident that it will) the wraps won't be as tight, which will make for a sloppy tie.
Thanks a million
How can I figure out how much chain link material I need
Thanks.
No worries!
I got a problem with my fence gate that my neighbor helper broke my gate trying to get his lawn mower through the gate so he could cut my grass the aluminum metal ends broke
😂lol come to Australia and check out chainlink fencing 👍very different even in different states lol maybe check Victoria could be interesting! We lace everything down here 👍biggest strain I’ve done personally is probably 500 metres run 😊👍
A good dang day!
In a corner, do you put a double the tension bands so you have one pointing one way and another they other?
Yes. You don't wrap the fabric around a corner.
Is there a list of equipment/supplies needed?
Do you use the same brace band for a diagonal brace post?
Yes
I need to replace a line post on an existing chain link fence. The post has broken off at the ground. How is the best way to tackle this? Thanks!
Snip your post free from the fence. Dig out the concrete (the least fun part of the job). Reset new post in concrete. Reattach.
I see you're indoors now. Veeery eeenteristing. ;-)
🤣
Do you tuck in the twist ties after you tighten down? So no one pricks their hand when they touch the fence?
Yes, that's absolutely standard practice for us. We knock them in with a hammer.
I need to fix my chain link fence for my dogs.
You got this!
Dan, did you mention that you also need fence fabric? I know you referenced it several times but… you know me… I’m a literal kind of guy.
If I made a list of all the things you specifically named as ‘necessities’ and you didn’t tell me to make sure I had fence fabric… I might have trouble keeping my neighbors goats out of my garden… once I got it built!
I may have just missed it… so please pardon me while I watch it again and check my list to make sure I didn’t miss anything else!
PS: about those straws… paper or plastic?
Fabric is optional. That's really only for "fancy-schmancy" neighborhoods. Otherwise a nice, neat system of posts and rails should do the trick. It also saves you the trouble of having to walk around to the gate every time you want to enter or exit. 😁
@@SWiFence I knowed it couldn’t have been an oversight! Good thinking bud!!!
Can you PLEASSEEE tell me how far apart the Tension Bands and the other ones are apart from each other??? I am putting up a chain link and I cannot find anywhere how to space them! Please help[ a girl in Ohio out! :)
We do every 4 or 4 1/2 diamonds (the diamond shapes of the chain link).
Can I just do a 80pd concrete bag per line post for a 4' chain link
I wouldn't go with less than 2 or 2 1/2 bags minimum.
Is there a decrepancy as to if the chainlink is behind the post or in front of post to tell who owns fence. My neighbor removed mine by this theory.
Like you see here, fabric is typically on the outside, and all nuts and bolts are on the inside--the secure side of the fence. However, this isn't really a great way to tell who owns a fence because whoever installed it could've done it differently. The only real way to know is to look at your property line. If it's on your property, it's your fence.
What's the easy twist tool made out of? $75 seems like a lot.
Vibranium. 😉
I have been searching for eight feet fence but cannot find any. Can you help me? fyi, i have tried Lowe’s and Home Depot
I would call local fence companies in your area--they should be happy to sell you supplies if you want to do it yourself. If you can't turn anything up with them call our shop (but freight might be a deal-breaker): 307.754.8166
Hey dan its the 21st century...
Even in Wyoming???!
@@sassafrasvalley1939
You might be on to something...😅
Hey hey hey! 🤣 That just shows you how old the stick ties are! They're pre-20th century... 😁
Not on the fence world
What to do if there is a slope?
I found th-cam.com/video/GlkcMqawiiE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=SWIFence
Thank u
What is the name of the tool to tie the wire?
We literally call it an "Easy Twist Tool".

👉🏻 Easy Twist Drill Tool - bit.ly/easytwisttool
Speaking of bars, seems like you had just come from one 😂
Totally sober, actually.
"military ties" is what we calll them
Would the 9 gauge tool work with the gauge 11Ties?
Why tf dont it just come with all of it lol
I can do without the corny outbursts...just the fact love.
We'll make a note immediately. Michael prefers no corny outbursts. 😉
75 dollars for drill bit to twist metal, lol lol lol ill use the old fashion way for free.
You do you. 👍🏻 We do this all day every day so it literally cost more money to do it the slow way.
When you do 100+ ties a day 5 days a week... you will LOVE the drill bit..lol
