My man staring at that camera hard as hell 🤣
he making sure we paying attention. lol
😂
🤣🤣🤣
“Just look at the camera, and let me do the talkin’”
Your side kick don't say much!
He's a sleeper, don't worry, he has his videos and they are great!
Now that's a sharp looking fence!
Van looks like he has a Terminator stare.
Certainly is a man of few words.
At 4:00, Van is creeping me out just a bit. He can’t see me can he?
Love it!
I tried this gaucho stuff and it was really disappointing. The stay wires aren’t tight at all. You can move them around with your fingers very easily. Also when I was unrolling it, a wire from inside the roll snagged the wire coming off the roll and bent it up bad. It never would tighten up when I pulled it. Hope the solid lock is better
Never mind I can't build this fence
Why do you say to stretch the fence 5' + 1' per 100'? Why the +1?
Why do you put the fencing on the outside of the post? Wouldn't putting it on the inside of the post give the wire more strength in case a horse happens to run into it? Also, having it on the inside wouldn't the fence block the H-brace cable from an animal getting it's leg stuck in there?
You're right. Typically the fence goes on the stock pressure side, however in the this situation- going up a hill and around a curve- we had to move to outside of the posts to accommodate the curve. If you put the fence on the inside of the curve it will pull away from the posts.
@@BekaertFencing Wow !..that was well thought of...some physics science there..👍👍..thank you for that guys..
@@dunroideparmir778 Of course, let us know if you have any further questions.
Inside to keep animals in, outside to keep humans out...good ole boy told me that.😉
How many feet of fencing can be stretched before needing more wood braces between besides t posts? We tried stretching 200 ft of woven wire 12 g with like 2in by 4in rectangles openings so it's very heavy. We
How far you can stretch between braces is going to rely on what your terrain is. If you're on flat land you can go up to 300 feet. If you're dealing with a lot of dips and rises you're going to want to add in braces at the tops and bottoms of those terrain changes.
Why did you skip every other line when nailing the wire to the wood post? Thanks
How do you decide when you are done tensioning?
To check you tension by hand, push on the fence line between two posts. You should see 4-6 inches of deflection.
This won't keep the thieves and druggies out! It might keep your cattle in and that's all!
4 to 1 ratio for line posts. What does that mean? Is a line post different than a t post (I know what a t post is). Why not show us a video of what you’re talking about? We can’t see what you’re doing on the stretcher bar. Take ‘us’ off the tripod and give us a close up. Now I know I’m complaining a lot but I really don’t know how to do any of this and I need build this same fence this spring. You’re giving us very good information and I truly am grateful but we are watching from a distance and it’s frustrating. You used your Paslode stapler and we didn’t see what you stapled. I would like to see the stapled post. Camera on other side of the fence. I just ran across this video and I’m going to check out your channel because you do good work. Hopefully I will see better in a different video. Thank you in spite of my complaints because it is ,nevertheless, an informative video
A line post is traditionally a smaller diameter wood post. A wood post is less likely to fold over (bending metal or in wet and soft ground plough a rotation of its base through subsurface. And have a 100' stretch at a 45° lean or flat with cattle and hog pressure.
(Currently contemplating the repair of a neighbor's fence that was put in during a drought with narrow hbraces 300' apart, junk thin wire just better than welded wire. With short posts driven to the spade.)
A line post is something like an 8' post sunk 3 to 3.5' in the ground.
I think the description of how they wedged the stretcher needs a little bit of revision. As it was said a wedge on to of each line wire (10 wedges?); both top and bottom wires which tend to be a heavier gauge need to be covered and wedged well. Also the intermediate wires need good pressure to prevent the fence from chevroning and keep the stay wires plumb.
I think the minimum is every other wire including top, don't think the wire should be dented or bent at the staple but rather allowed to slide for thermal and wind movement of the fence. But being paranoid i would put two staples per wire if I could fit them without distorting the wire. If you are new to fencing and not doing it as a profession the cost benefit ratio is on hand driven staples over the gun.
What I find interesting is the hbraces diagonals. Is that a single wire tensioned with a gripple? For high tension there is a wire for every two line wires not sure the ratio for field fence. I also didn't see a way to adjust the tension over time on the line wires, but might observe a bit more on the second pass through the video.
How many rolls could be joined together and pulled tight if I am on completely flat terrain? I have 1200 ish feet needing done but don't want to terminate so many times.
1320' can be installed at one time using the center pull method. 660' in one direction. Here is a video on the center pull method: th-cam.com/video/GifVgHN0a1Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=5guQziSJNr9tHMMX
How do you do field fence on hilly land?
How much do your line post stick up from your wire?
Here we are using an 8' post. We like to have 54-55" out of the ground. Good answer Keith, If using electric fence as a topper you will want to leave a little more post out but get at least 36" in the ground.
This video was very effective, thanks for the knowledge, it helped me build my fence!
You bet Lia. We are always happy to help. We can't wait to see what you grow in your new garden fence.
@@BekaertFencingdo you have a link to the chain walker you use in the video?
@@mr.bearded-homesteader5584 here you go: fencing.bekaert.com/en/fence-products/stretcher-bar-puller
@bekaertfence do you have a link to the fence stretcher chain walker system you use??
We sell it on our website, fencing.bekaert.com/en/fence-products/stretcher-bar-puller
You did not say which side of the fence the wire should go on. Which is it?
The wire should go on the side of the fence with the animal pressure. That way if the animal pushes on the fence the posts will be there to support the pressure as well.
How is the steel horizontal pipe in the h Brace secured to the wood post? 1:37
We secured it with a brace pin. You can watch the process in this video: fencing.bekaert.com/en/fencing-videos/how-to-install-a-wood-h-brace
What brand of stretcher bar is that and where can I get one???
We sell this stretcher bar: fencing.bekaert.com/en/fence-products/5-stretcher-bar-6-wedges
Hi. How long will this type of fence be operational?
This is a 20 year coating on this fence
Do you have to use a stretcher bar? Can you use a rod laced through the fence and a winch
There are other alternatives however we've found that the stretcher bar gives the best tension overall.
Wow. That is not me. What the hell?
I'm building a tension deer fence across an uneven wooded hillside. Any pointer on top of this video?
when fencing thru gullys, dips etc, foot your posts, with driven 4 foot posts, dont over strain, allow for pulling down into dips, stand wire up, we use a 2.5 H.T wire , stapled above netting height, bend short wire into S shape and use to hold netting up, i wouldnt use that netting, use the tight lock one, costs more but worth the money. look up any fencing videos, showing deer fencing in NEW ZEALAND.
What are you using as the crossmember in your h-braces??
2 3/8 sch40 galvanized pipe
Very professional!
Very professional and the most detailed and informative video I've viewed yet. Much of those little details are not typically mentioned in most videos. That sets this video apart from the others and makes all the difference.
nice content..👍👍...keep vlogging...
