A Simple DIY Modern Fence Design and Build - Frame and Panel, Welded Wire
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 08. 2024
- In part one of the 'wortheffort' "Back Yard Makeover" we tackle an easy to build fence. In this case to enclose a garden and double as a dog run. The style is common in our area for more modern yard aesthetics. It utilizes welded wire, 2x4's, 4x4's and simple hardware. We merged all these supplies into a frame and panel fence design that is easily doable with basic hand/power tools such as a circular saw and drill. Yes we did utilize other tools but those were unique to our situation, goals and location in the Texas Hill Country and limestone soil but other simple solutions are available.
This is an easily doable project for a beginner woodworker, craftsperson or DIY enthusiast that won't break the bank for the results you get.

Hahaha!!! Love the "sponsor" advertisement.🤣
I have to say that I strongly dislike ads and sponsorship breaks but I was thoroughly entertained by yours! Made me want some just because you made me laugh and because I like coasters.
Your workshop coaster add is the best add EVER!!
Not a carpenter but you got all those tools and they are all in place sir ! Great job don’t sell yourself short :) ty for the video
Nice job Shawn. Don't listen to them. You have the skill for teaching and you use it. That's why I subscribed and why I watch your videos. There's a ton of videos out there if all you want to do is veg.
And by the way. I'm gonna do a video on making a sanding pad like yours. But I'm gonna give you credit for the design. Not sure how yours is made. But I know how I'm going to make mine.
Thank you for a great channel! I especially love the "talking part" of the videos, as I got the knowledge to build everything I needed, from pergolas and benches for the garden, to keepsake boxes for my wife. Greetings from the eastern border of the EU (Iasi, Romania)!

Wow you did that all by yourself, you are a real superman! 😁
LOL - Coaster commercial so funny. Great project. Looks fantastic. You make it look so easy. Thanks for sharing.
Love your channel. I'm happily using your no skill work bench. But I'm sad to say, your Dad is the star of this video. More Dad!
The shop coaster earned a sub, I literally laughed out loud at Spouse distractor!
Omg!! Imagine doing a large area this way!!!
Really enjoyed that. I've used the same square buiding technique on concrete just using a soap stone. Works excellent.
Thank you for your sharing!
Thank you for this very detailed information on build this fence
Great video, I enjoy watching you work, lol. Putting in a deck later this week and the woman who hired me is worried I can't do it alone. I told her that with proper planning anyone can do anything. She scoffed. Her disbelief is reflected in my fee, lol.
“Not a carpenter”
Still does an amazing job. Love the channel.
My back hurts just watching you move all the stone and rocks. Looks great!
Love the design. Cannot wait for lumber prices to come back down!
Still waiting 😢
lol love the parts where
mix cement
chase away deers
mix more cement
look threateningly at deers
…love this site…u teach me a lot…thanks….
Great stuff Shawn! Thanks!
Great video! Magnificent sponsor ad!
9:57 this kind of fence with uneven spaces is meant to be "small spaces bottom, large spaces top" because small animals are more likely to be on the ground trying to sneak through. Hope you get the picture. Love your Videos, greetings from Vienna/Austria
We know. Had to duplicate what was there. Notice my fence is done right.
@@wortheffort i should watch the whole video before posting comments, sorry 😁. Btw i am amazed how straight your 2by4s are. Mine are always, really always twisted badly
Good job. We used some of those same techniques when we redid our backyard fence recently.
Great video nice job - just put 3/8 spacers in the slot between the wires that you cut to keep them from bending.
What you called a 'dovetail' for the top plate is known as a scarf joint.
Joining the corners would've added a lot of stability, which was sacrificed for making the ends removable. Good example of trade offs. Anyway, nice looking fence. Thanks for the video.
With using the ring and pin instead of a hinge and latch they are joined. Though I might add diagonal across top later to double as bird feeder stand.
love it
Nice job!
Haha I need a woodworking coaster lol
Excellent job. You make things look so easy.
Looks good ,nice job.
Great video, I just learned a lot! It truly is "worth the effort"!!!
I'm planning to build a welded wire fence at my new house as well so my son can finally bring his dog over on his weekends with me. Thanks for the ideas, I'm definitely going to be putting some of them to use!
PS - NEW SUB from Kansas.
Amazing job. I want to create something like this in the back of my garage - which I want to make in an informal garden area with greenhouse. I already have the framing made up for a gambrel style greenhouse. I want to keep the deer out of this area. Deer are everywhere!
Well done Shawn. Educational and entertaining.
Too wordy. I thought you were joking about those coasters. Ha4d work. Job well done.
Wonderful
Sounds like where I live in Texas. :p Deer have always been here as long as I have... Mountain lions moved back to the area several years ago. I still have my regular fence and so far so good as far as the lions go... I have two dogs. Well really 1 and 1/4 since one is a Border Collie and the other is a chihuahua. They are mostly outside as they like it that way and no issues so far. I also have cats that come in or out as they please and no issues there either.
You ain't kidding about wood being expensive right now. I just had to redo the floor in my main bathroom from water damage stemming from the Snowpocalypse. I bought 3/4 plywood as close to marine grade as I could get locally. Also 2x4's etc. and I was amazed by the prices but I had to do this. Bathroom is done with new vinyl floor tile, new vanity, sink and faucet as well as a new sturdy floor. I am so happy. :D Next step is the tub which I think I will just remove as I only shower. Looking to make my own custom shower pan with epoxy resin to put in the tub's place. :D Probably going to need more plywood for that to replace the floor there as well. Also thinking will have to replace the walls around the shower too as with the tub gone there will be a gap. Good thing I love DIY and fixing things. :D
The end result of that fence is great. It looks really nice! I would just stain it rather than paint it but then I love the look of natural wood. :D Thanks for sharing this. Going to save it for later also as I may build a fence like that soon when I move. Way too many people now near my house of 20+ years so I want many acres full of trees. :D - Heidi
Seeing your approach to building this fence, I would have a lot of confidence in the quality of the furniture that you make.
I really like the removable ends. Could you have increased the "built-in incompetency" by making all of the panels removable?
Use a dado blade on a table saw and it’s super fast to cut those 2x4’s
good job
Great build!
Be sweet idea to have removable exterior "panels" that fit over the wire, you know for some extra privacy when needed, or maybe some canvas cloth? Hmmm I got ideas now, thanks.
Inaccurate is a better choice of words than incompetence when it comes to carpentry errors.
Not as funny or memorable.
Maybe supply the tenants with a lifelong supply of coasters. I mean, if they work for scaring cats and kids, maybe they work for deer too?
That's hill country ground for you. Always bring a rock breaker bar.
COOLKOOL GREAT AWESOMENESS
Nice video . I hear white wing dove. You must be in south Texas👍
Hey just checking in again!! Your videos are incredible resources thank you. Not to bug you too much sir but when will your book be out? I know I keep asking sorry. :-/
OMG that limestone. Pity da foo.
Thank you. Had me at the small budget and limited skills. 😂
Nice cage for stuffed animals
Oh and.... Make sure you call 811 before you dig!
Surprised that bee didn't sting ya at 12:00!
A router can cut the grooves easier than multiple saw passes. I often use a router for that purpose.
Not all DIY'rs have a router and those that do would know this. Circular saw is more common.
@@wortheffort May be so, but for someone about to drop several hundred dollars on a fence, another $60 - $80 for a router is small potatoes. Or buy one used. The real cost is the bits but a casual DIYer only needs one or two.
Kinda reinforced my point.
Deer can clear an 8’ fence in Nebraska!
You said "when you doodoo." Haha
a router?
I really like the idea of the removable panel. What are the bolts you used called?
Never mind, I found them. For anyone else wondering, these are actually gate hinges for a chainlink fence. From what I'm seeing it would only cost a few dollars more to used regular wood fence style hinges AND an anti-sag kit. Depending on your area it might even be cheaper.
Hey I just finished watching your mushroom turning videos and went to your web page and couldn't find them. Do you have an Etsy or someplace you sell them?
You may regret not putting drainage at the down slope end.
Pea Gravel drains.
That's a huge skid. What was on that?
Hey Shawn, Loving the content as always. What is the mic problem you're having? I used to work in location sound, wondered if I could help
I get into editing and it’s bad. All I know.
@@wortheffort what make and model is the mic and how are you connected to camera/audio recorder
I can not seem to find the hardware used at 43:00 I am not sure if im not looking for the right word. are these not Bolts and anchors? any insight as to where I can find them?
I think they're fence hinges but not sure. Just go to a farm store and they'll have bins of them different sizes.
Love your channel I do Not have access to free wood I have a new lathe and wondered where I should buy my would there is not very good wood here down in the pine belt
You can start with pine.
…where can I get those pins, orange adjustable square?…
Modern tiger’s cage?
Wonderful videos, thank you! I just need you to come here to help me with a deck and shed please.....😀
Not related to fences, but, will you be attending SWAT this year?
Not sure they'll have it this year. Planning woulda had to have started last year for it....
@@wortheffort It is on
Bro, don't put wooden poles directly in the concrete, they will rot. Better use metal bases.
limestone doesn't hold water.
Great looking fence , but definitely not simple lol.. good job tho
After the fence is done maybe you can build a sit up bench?
you may want to check but a deer can jump an 8' fence.
They need a run at it to do that and deer here are small. 7’ is good deterrent.
why not just do a dado cut ? that way use way less wood/posts
All looked difficult. And a lot of steps. Got lost early in the video.
Where the heck do you live???
PLEASE JUST DO THE WORK AND LESS TALKS. TOO MUCH TALKING...
no
No way I'm sitting through an hour-long TED Talk.....just get to the point, man!
Ah, let me get right on that. I'll tear down this fence and build another just for you with no talking.....
Little did you know, after covid wich is still arownd now with covid 2, after the Ukrain crisis, short any excuse, the prices never droped but went and are going even higher. What you are proposing is today basicaly unafordrdable.
Dunno what you are talking about. Lumber prices have plummeted from their high's. Not as low as before but iin line with what they woulda been without covid.
You keep using that word (incompetence), I don't think that word means what you think it means. :)
Your wire panels are installed upside down. The smaller mesh goes down.
Using the excuse that you were matching the existing fence, lame.
Do it right and don't justify the error in the original fence or your lack of standards.
My guess is that you have no clue as to the correct way until someone posted it.
Typical your tuber.
They are installed small mesh on ground. You didn’t watch video and just felt need to be rude.
In police state Switzerland, where I live we have to ask government for permission to build something like this on our property...asking costs money sometimes like $1000 just to ask.
For that the Swiss barely pay any taxes compared to western European countries.
@@hisxxx2 I’d rather pay a little more taxes than.be threatened with jail time for digging a hole or cutting down a tree on my property, without asking permission from the narcissistic psychopath Swiss so called authorities
@@cattleNhay Howdy, Brother! Heck ya! We're on the same page. You'll always have a place to hang your hat in Texas. Fire away Eggman!
Lots of places have zoning. If your neighbor decided to put up a 20' day glow orange fence, you'd be speed dialing 1-800 - police state.
Looks like a concentration camp!, but well done 👍
stop talking and build the fence.
I think you’ll enjoy a classic Diresta video more than mine. Might try them. Hope ya learn a lot.
