Thank you. My dad taught me a lot of stuff over the years, but he didn't have a farm so I never learned how to stretch barbed wire. I recently bought a small acreage and this video just helped me out big time. Thanks again.

When you are attaching barb wire to a metal post, it might be best to go around the post twice. This will keep the wire from sliding down the post when spacing the strands of wire.

Send some of that wire to us!!! Sheffield wire sucks! We had a strand break today and it wasn’t even tight yet. Also, you can pull off of the post, you don’t have to have a skid steer. Another thing it you want to wrap your wire twice and if you go under the run on the first wrap you want to go over the run on the second when tying off. It’ll put a bind on it and keep it from slipping. Also, if you ever have to fix it in the future it gives just that much extra slack to work with.
The most important part of the installation is the setup he has on his ATV to unspool the wire. This type of project is impossible without something like the spoiler as the wire spool is very heavy.😊
Mr. Lewis, that ATV attachment looks awesome, I'm doing a fence line myself and would really like to see a picture of it or short video on it, do you have either? Would like to build one. Thanks. EddieGzz
Nice basic tips and simple , great help . I also never thought about picking up the wire scraps I just ran barbed wire today and now I gotta go back and do my goats don’t eat em
Thanks for the reply. Yes, that little tool you had attached that you said was "special". Where can I get that? I don't have anyone to help with my fences and I'm trying to find any little thing that can help?@@LewisRenovation
Can I use the metal stakes as the beginning and ending of the fence? How far down should I hammer the metal stakes? Do I need to stretch razor wire as well?

New subscriber here, came for your barb wire post, but really enjoyed the mesquite post. I too, share your battle with unwanted plant infestation. We don’t have much mesquite in Oregon, but make up for it with a whole lotta wild blackberry vines.
Question I have an existing barbed wire fence. I want to fence in a portion if my yard for my beagle dogs using the existing barbed wire fences t posts. What can I use to layer over the barbed wire to keep my dogs from passing through?
Woven wire like this should probably work. You'd need to make sure the openings are small enough. Take care and good luck. www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/red-brand-woven-field-fence-330-ft-l-x-47-in-h
In the uk we call it "sheep netting". Sheep netting with two strands of barbed wire on top, is called "stock fencing". 'Go figure' as you'd say across the pond. The best thing abt this video is the background music - it gives the content both authority and authenticity.
Run the bottom wire first to set all the posts. If it's a long fence, once all the posts are in move it to the top and then work your way down. Keeps the barb wire from getting all tangled up
@@LewisRenovation Well I carry both and use both but I feel with barbed wire I find myself using the fence stretcher a lot more especially when repairing it from a break. Just seems it’s a lot quicker and more convenient.
I welded up what I call "the tree". It would hold up to 3 rolls of wire that you can roll out in 1 pass. Basically a verticle pipe 5ft tall. then it had 3 horizontal pipes welded about 18" apart. Put your rolls on, then put the big washers on after the wire roll, and then pin it with a thru bolt. 3 wires worked good, fast and easy...but any more and they would tangle on the ground bad. I tried with 5....a disaster. 4 was doable but still a tangle to fight. 3 was a breeze. afterwards I ended up going back and welded up 3 rings as wire guides. The wire rolls were stacked verticle, but the wire guides would lay the 3 wires on the ground horizontally about 18 inches apart. No more tangles at all then. I ended up mounting all of this to 3 point round bale carrier that goes on the back of a tractor. I cut the spear off and went from there. With us using the hell out it for the fact it worked really good, I ended up adding a carrier for a 5gal water cooler and also boxes for carrying tools, staples and lastly a rack that could carry about 30-40 t posts at a time.

Thanks, I'll try that next time
When correcting a guy who made a how to video it's best to not do that and just go make your own video if you think you're better at it.
I didn’t know bees would stay in the barbwire. Highly trained.
My wife is an especially talented bee keeper:)
There was 2 sunflowers on the head board of my bed
That’s really cool!
You made that look easy. I think I can do it. Beautiful property and view btw.
Good luck. Let me know if any questions come up.

Thanks for commenting and the added info!
Beautiful video! I would love to see a video on you building the barbwire 4wheeler attachment.
Thank you. I'll try to get a video out on it sometime soon
How far apart are your t-post and what’s the furthest length you can go before stretching the Barbwire?
T post are usually about 12 feet apart. I’ve rolled out 2000 feet before stretching and it worked just fine
How seperated should the metal post be? Every 10ft?
I generally space 12 feet apart
The most important part of the installation is the setup he has on his ATV to unspool the wire. This type of project is impossible without something like the spoiler as the wire spool is very heavy.😊

Your welcome
What is the tool called that tightens the barb wire ? Thanks
Are you asking about a “come along”? Thanks for commenting!
Can u share an Amazon link to the wire stretching tool?
Search for Dreyoo Barbed Wire Pullers on Amazon. This is just one Chinese brand but there others as well
Thank you! Quick and easy. Greatly appreciated
Hope your fence project turns out well
That stretch kills me every time
Thank you for the comment. Hope your own projects are going well
Only useful if you have those tools.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment

Great video idea. I'll try to work it into my projects. Thanks
About to run my first fence to try and impress the lady and her family. Thanks for the info. ;)
Good luck impressing the woman, and lucky you to have that kind of woman
Nice basic tips and simple , great help . I also never thought about picking up the wire scraps
I just ran barbed wire today and now I gotta go back and do my goats don’t eat em
Good luck with your goats. I’ve never had any but I hear they are major escape artists
What was the special tool called? And was the barbed wire attached to the chain that was attachef to the tractor? Great vid
I think you’re asking about a wire gripper. And yes, the chain needs to attached to something like a tractor, tree, truck …
Thanks for the reply. Yes, that little tool you had attached that you said was "special". Where can I get that? I don't have anyone to help with my fences and I'm trying to find any little thing that can help?@@LewisRenovation
Never mind, I found it. Thanks!!@@LewisRenovation
Email if you have any more questions joeu235@gmail.com. Good luck!
Can I use the metal stakes as the beginning and ending of the fence? How far down should I hammer the metal stakes? Do
I need to stretch razor wire as well?
You really need something more substantial on the ends, like wooden posts. Hammer the T posts down until the flat piece on the bottom is in the ground
Thank you
You are welcome!
Damn... I really enjoyed this video!
Wow, thanks for the nice comment!
hi, what gloves do you use for barbed wire? thnx in advance!

What brand come a long are you using it looks like it works great. Thanks for video!
The company I work for was throwing them away. Not sure what brand but all aluminum and stainless steel. I'm sure they were expensive
How much for a row of barbed wire?
New subscriber here, came for your barb wire post, but really enjoyed the mesquite post.

Can you eat your wild blackberries? We have wild blackberries but they stay in wet areas. Thanks for subscribing
Good video man do a video on the attachment you made for the 4 wheeler to unroll the barb wire thanks
I’m always looking for video ideas. Thanks!
Looks like a project I finished a few years ago. Nice job. Now brace for all the haters to chime in.
Thanks!
Can you make a video on the wire roller thing of majig?
Next time I use it I'll see if it makes good content. Thanks for the suggestion
Thank you, I appreciate the information!👍
Hope your fence work goes well. Thanks for commenting
Very helpful. Thank you
Awesome, your welcome!
Yes, I did learn. I feel like I can tackle my fence project now.
That’s great man! Hope it goes well

“Trailer queen leased 4 wheeler”. Hahaha!!! I like your style
Thanks man!
Nice vid. Thx for the tips boss 👍
Hope your project goes well. Thanks for the comment!
How deep are those metal poles where you secured the wire?
3 feet in the ground
What wire do you start with bottom or top
Run the bottom wire first to set all the posts. If it's a long fence, once all the posts are in move it to the top and then work your way down. Keeps the barb wire from getting all tangled up
I had the same skid steer and loved it
Mine has almost trouble free for 10 years
Good video. Thanks…
Thank you
How much is the stretching tool?
The tool that grabs the wire is around $20
Goucho wire...shit
I've had good luck with it
One wrap major no no
Hopefully my cows aren't too disgusted by the single wraps everywhere on my ranch and my parent's ranch
Do you like the come along better than the fence stretcher tool? Nice job!
I think a come along works better, plus it has other uses like pulling a truck out of the mud or strapping something down on a trailer. Thanks!

That’s awesome! Maybe I’ll steal the idea 😁

💯👍
Thank you!
Wow I had no idea how this was done and have a fence to repair now that I'm on a Ranch.
Good luck with the repair. Hopefully my video was helpful
