Stoney Ridge Farmer, Josh I’m thinking maybe 10 - 16 ga posts ?
Best channel I've ever subscribed to. Hands down. God bless my Air force brother.
More education and more entertainment. That's a BIG project. It's fascinating to watch experts at work with appropriate machinery.
Hi..... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
This was a great video this is what America is all about community and helping each other thanks for uploading this
This is a great opportunity for newer fencing companies to get together and learn from the experts. Hope they are all successful in their businesses. Can you imagine doing this the old fashioned way? That would be tough and time consuming and still not a good. Thanks for sharing.
It is heart warming to see those young men learning to become real men with a trade. I would employ any of them in a heartbeat.
Good luck! That's the least employable band of misfits ever assembled! But I agree, it's pretty fun to watch them grow their skill set and businesses. Cheers
Awesome Josh, woooooo
thanks buddy...havn't heard from ya in a bit...good to have ya here again!
Wow Josh now their some busy guys. Looks like a good group of hard working guys. Fencing a hard job but those machines are awesome and make a great job. I can’t imagine doing all that old school by hand. Wooooo can’t wait for the next episode 👍🏻
Thank you for posting these informative videos. We are looking forward to having our fence put up in the next month or so. I never heard of Tornado Wire and this type fencing till I saw your earlier videos. Have a BLESSED Evening!!
Nice looking job by the guys. I like the buried dead man idea, I'd hate to mow around those braces if I had to put one at every bend in my fence!
Awesome fence! I’ve been watching you for the last couple years. Really enjoy your videos! Wife and I purchased 12 acres a couple years ago here in Kentucky and are looking to start a small farm. Getting a lot of ideas from you! Keep up the great work!
That is awesome!
I’m in Kentucky I understand about them Indiana bugs 😂🤣great job guys 👍✌️👊
Hey I grew up on a farm back in the 50's. Our fences were barbed wire and wooden posts. Posts driven with a sledge hammer hitting the top of the post to drive it into the ground. Hard work.
Give Mrs stoney ridge a big hello and hope she doing well and hope everything is going well for you .witch I believe it is bud godbless
Glad to see it's still coming together for you Josh.
You are a smart man, Josh. Having such great exposure on CZcams must've saved you a pretty penny by having FFS do this on your property and channel.
Having the fence Expo here on the farm did save us on some labor costs for sure....also good learning experience for these fellas that don't build much pipe fence...a win win for everyone!
You kidding? I charge him double for all the clicks my tight body and pretty face bring in! Bahahahah
bhahahaa
WOOOOOO 🇺🇸🇺🇸!!!!! Wow that's how to build a fence around the farm 🇺🇸 that will last for a long long time 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🚜🚜🚜🚜
I'll be doing some fencing soon as I'm also building up the small farm I inherited. Very excited about this "mini series". Love your channel and the knowledgeable content 🙂
this is great when you have easy access and few rocks. we have places we have to pack posts and wire in on mules to run fence
The farm has come a long long way. I have enjoyed the adventure
Great fence series!
Loved the video, watched it late last night and forgot to comment. Can't wait to see the rest of this series
AMAZING VIDEO JOSH !!! Can’t wait to see the pulling wire video !!!
Love these fencing videos. Learning lots of good stuff. Thanks.
Thank you for showing all the work and the guys.
Any time!
👍👍
Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻
Agree..... Learn something today. Nice video [Springbok country. ]
this dude must have hit the lottery, couse that stuff isnt cheep.
We have around $100k in our fencing so far on the farm.....ya don't get into this by being broke or crying about it. We both work very hard...have saved our money...done without new cars and a McMansion so that we can build a farm to make a living doing what I love until I die....some say spending money...other's might say investing in our future and our land....much more secure of an investment than any 401k!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer hope it works out for you, quailty is king. farming isnt easy and its a full time job. you are building what i call " your own prison" . i know becouse i have one, just smaller than yours.
Quite exciting Josh it's great to be around people who really know their trade. Makes less work on you, You own the other hand just need to make them happy.
Good video I like seeing all the different machines at work and people that know how to operate them looking good job at least you ain't driving wooden posts with a big ole sledge hammer lol looking forward to the rest of the videos have a good one
Sweet deal Josh looking forward to wire going up :)
Awsome amount of work.
15:05
Excellent Video Transition Josh
👍
Hope you cooked up a few of those meat birds for those guys...and a few adult beverages as well!
Awsome awsome video bud and your getting things done and wish I could have been there to see this happening bud godbless
Indiana bugs? I'm in north central Indiana and no bugs here. Lol. Thanks for the video Josh. Thanks for the bloopers also. Have a good week and we'll look for your live feed Wednesday. We'll see ya down the road.
Woooooo!
Indiana is south of 70. You are in Michanada my friend.
Cool 😎
Good video Josh I appreciate the hard work you put in making these awesome videos I know it's knot easy I say again I appreciate you
LOL, boys and their toys. Not going to lie though...the first time I climbed on a tractor with a claw I was hooked. Stuff that would have taken hours and backaches later took minutes.
Great vid and alot of work but looks to be fun like a festival awsome. till the next vid bud godbless.
That is some nice fence machines.
Thanks!
Smart having the grassy area outside fence. You can brush cut area once or twice a year and keep trees from turning your pasture back to forest. Neighbor didn't do that and is looking pasture to tree shade.
yeppers that's whay we build or fences off from the edges of the pasture....keeps it clean and easy to maintain
Great video looking good
Good hard work.
Amen!
So what did all of this fence work cost you? How much would that same work cost another farmer?
How long does steel last under ground?
I fear it may cost more than the rest of us just plain ole regular farmers could handle...
awesome
Great video! I'm about an hour southeast of Harrisonburg!
Congratulations on building your fence it will save your livestock
That definitely makes fencing alot easier
All some job guys 🇺🇸
You don't need two UTVs, you need three. I'm tired of someone running off with my buggy every time I turn my back!
Cooool
I have used those machines but I was putting in monitoring wells and drive point wells as well as soil sampling from depth never used one to put in fences
Woooo 👍
First big fan
Hello Josh
Stoney Ridge Farmer
Greetings and thank you for sharing your journey
In my eyes you serve a great purpose teaching us all about farming and farm life this is how our great country was built
If possible could you show us how much this fencing cost i understand it was a big project with many facets
Please compose a complete list and monetery breakdown
I believe this is very
Helpful
Thank you Josh
I understand and appreciate all you do
Like the deadman post under ground but not sure if it’s better than about ground setup
Could you please elaborate on your above ground setup?
You'll never find an overweight fencer. They work hard and earn every £, and sometimes don't make a penny
Fences make social distancing easy 😁
bahhahhahaha...dude...shoot me an email!
What time savers those pole drivers are wow
some of these guys have told me they've driven 500 post in a 10 hour day!!
Josh,
Hope you taught Mark about using bleach to kill chiggers. One of the most important things we learned when we lived in Eastern Oklahoma was to take a shower, then take a warm bath with about 1/2 cup of bleach in the water. You smell like you been in a public pool but it kills and disinfects the chigger.
I'll remember that. I haven't had a chigger problem in the almost 16 years I've been here, but that's nice to know.
Bleach is the way to go with skunk juice, too, BTW.
I'd love to see a video of "how to make a living on 5 acres" or something similar to that. I feel like most of the times it's terrible ideas from people who don't actually do it. I'd love to hear ways from people like you.
Check out Urban farmer Curtis stone...tell him stoney ridge farmer sent ya...he's doing it on less than an acre! Once we start marketing our products you'll get much more insight into earning a living on the farm. We plan on marketing our products online
To make a living on less than an acre one would have to sell veg at 1000 dollars a quart.... no one it their right mind will pay that. Now if you rely on making videos thats a different story. Long story short you need enough land to raise beef, crops that harvest at different times of year for cash flow. Can't be done on 5 acres.
Well, if I ever need anything welded, I will definitely call Gavin.
I may have sent you this info on a n insect repellent. Jungle juice will keep most bugs away including ticks. You can buy it at REI or order it on line. I don't have any connection to this product. Just a guy who has worked outdoors a lot
New subscriber here! Fluty Lick Homestead sent me over!
You better get working on that second generation buddy👍
Great Video Josh! Really interesting. I'm looking forward to the others. How was it going through that crooked part? (Where the contractor didn't clear in the straight line you had marked out) Lots of deadmen/braces there?
Still yet to pull wire through there...you'll see more in the next vid...a bit frustrating to say the least
Yeah you can really see why he wanted it straight now.
That's going to add a lot of extra braces.
Always has Kewl Stuff and something new to learn. It looks like there was 26 people with bad mouse click control, just a little more to the left for that Thumbs Up
I think some folks just can't help but dislike everything they see....some even subscribe just to put me down...it's sad that they can't see the amount of work I put into sharing this stuff with folks
👍👍
Thanks for answering! I’m curious as to the cure
hey josh
Around here we use an auger and concrete posts. Those steel posts would bend trying to drive them in coral rock.
Most coral isn't much trouble for the pipe we use. It has a yield strength of around 80,000psi, and with an experienced operator, it isn't too tough to peck it right through. If it's too much, we just swing the rock auger in, drill the pilot hole, fill the spoil back in, and drive the post. It's still stronger than concrete, as we've proven many times.
@@farmfencesolutionsllc7804 That's good to know. We have rock that varies from pourous oolite to sandstone. There may be sand next to rock so when you drive a pipe in it will deflect in the ground or pinch off the end and cause the pipe to crunch up instead of cutting in rock. On filled in land you can easily drive those posts in.
@@farmfencesolutionsllc7804 80,000? I have hauled many loads of steel, and tubing in my life as skateboard cowboy. I used to haul out of mills from Detroit to Alabama. I have never hauled any tubing to my knowledge that was galvanized like this with a 80,000 spec. Usually i understand to be hi tensile it is gonna be cold rolled. But I have to be careful with tightening my straps on thin 18-16 ga 55,000 min yield tubing especially if my winch spool is empty or I can easily make it to tight and it collapses. 50,000 min yield is most popular. This looks like my grandfathers industrial chainlink fence that i had to cut out with a torch. Just common cold rolled SS40 if it's Allied, SPS40 if it's Stephens, or WT 40 if it is Wheatland. I've hauled it all. Usually like to look at the footage I'm hauling. A 4" 40WT is like a little over 6-1/2 lbs a ft. Very heavy and strong. But I haven't seen 80,000 tensile on any BOLs yet that I recall. Nascar racecars used to use a really strong tubing in their cars that was seamless and made in Detroit if I remember correctly but it wasn't ever galvanized that i recall. That's really incredible if its 80,000
@@ifyoutip It really is 80KPSI yield.
How did you get all these different companies on this project? Great information and great video. Love for Stoney Ridge
This was organized by Farm Fence Solutions....he does it several times a year...once on the east coast here on our farm...once on in Indiana!
If I had that 150 acres, I would build my own private golf course ( or least a few holes)
I build fence out here in Idaho and I've seen these machines before. Wonder how they would do out in the hard ground of the rocky mountains. I'm starting to believe it'll do it. I might need one..... 👍 oh, and I'm subscribing! 👍👍
We have them out your way. Call Mark @ SWI Wyoming if you want to try one close (er) to home.
@@farmfencesolutionsllc7804 Thanks. I might just do that one of these days. That would be awesome! 👍
What business is it of anyone else if you have ten side by sides? It's not like their paying for them. I like your vids keep em coming.
lol....I agree Brit...folks have alot to say about having multiple tractors, tools or side by sides....truth is we need them on the farm...this place is big!
Hey Josh thanks for the video I enjoyed it love that fence if I ever do get the money I would love to fence the property that I buy because eventually I'm going to get 46 acres of land I'm going to buy and I just don't know at the moment how much that would cost me 2 by that tornado fence there
Hi Josh, Jeff and Barb from Edmonton here, I love the bass riff at about the 18 minute mark but google could not identify it, could you post a link to the piece. Really enjoyed this video and content for the series.
Hey Josh. Fun video to watch. Question. Is there any advantage to mapping the fence posts with GPS before hand or is that just not worth it for the number of posts involved and the fact that your perimeter is already well defined?
sure...so we measured and mapped with GPS...but there is an element of error....and gps won't tell ya about corners...low spots..high spots and other unforseen situations like sandy or rocky soil. Best to drive it and plan it out...this was all planned 4 years ago my brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Understood! Great work!
Have them come do my farm
Fence is looking sweet ! How many gates do you plan on putting in ? Awesome video and a big thumbs up !!!
3 gates in this 1 mile section of fence..more gates will be in the cross fence
what gauge pipe did you use ss20 or ss40
How do you know if you will hit a bolder?
Keep drilling - You might find OIL.😎
I feel sorry for the weed eater having to trim around that much fence lol
lol...our weed eaters go MOOOOOOO!!! lol
🤠💙🇺🇸
🚜-Woooooo!!! I=====I=====I=====I
did You get the Boy's to pull the cylinder blocks out of the pond?
yep....we had a chat afterward about cleaning up after yourselves
6:47 What!! You have rocks on Stoney Ridge Farm???
He might've named it after some of his trespassers. ;o)
What's the reason for having multiple fence crews????
this is our summer fence expo....maybe you didn't see the intro but this is a learning experience for all these guys...and it provides them some exposure to the world. Imagine watching folks build the fence you want...before ya build it.
Josh did you do a video solving your water problem?
Still isn't totally solved buddy....but we're about to move the cows to a newly fenced pasture! Wooooo!!
ding,ding,ding,ding,ding,ding! Do you hear ding all night long?
not too sure what ya mean....however we wear hearing protection for sure....you'd be a total fool to not wear hearing protection driving posts..its loud!
What does "Building a first generation farm." mean to you? I get an idea without watching the video or reading an absurd comment. I'm impressed by a 14 YO farmer with a corn field as big as North Carolina.
I feel like my skid steer with a montana post driver is better at driving post then the protech machines and way cheaper with more attachments.
If that were the case, that's what we would take with us every day. We run very efficient and high profit margin crews, and we do it with the best equipment available. We keep a few Montana drivers around, and Farm Fence Solutions is even a dealer for them, but for true quality and production, you just can't beat an EVO from Protech Machinery. If you just need a driver for the odd job here and there, and already have a skid steer, the Montana is a fine choice.
there ya have it brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer You should have the pigs install that thar fence! Save ya a bunch a money!
From the videos I've watched the protech just looks slower and theres no way that auger would drill through the rocks you'll run into in Montana.
I agree with the montana is the only way.. i want too see yur evo lay out, spread an pound 300+ wood post a day. We run a 5 guy crew an i wud have a hard time believing that the evo cud keep up with us.. we have no problem putting in 4k+ feet of 5 strand high tensile in a day
Wont the pipe rust where the galvanize has been welded?
It is sprayed with a cold galvanizing compound after welding to prevent rust.
@@jmtebbens Thanks I guess I missed that.
yep...we paint them with cold galvanized paint....we also do periodic repaints on those welds
Rouge chicken at 1:25!!
Hi Josh,
2 things...first how dose the Quick PTO work, have you had a chance to test it yet? Second, I watch all of your videos, and I would say 80% of the time they don't show up as watched on my page, I know you guys get paid for view and likes, the like is always there, but I'm not sure why the views aren't showing on my end. This video is one of the most recent that I watched that shows on my screen that I didn't view it...
I hope you warned them that they would need some kind of insect repellent, Josh.
oh yeah! We keep it on every side by side
How do those guys make it pay with all that expensive kit? Credit to them.
Average cost to construct a fence is between $3 and $8 per linear foot
We make it pay by operating efficiently. The kit is really cheap compared to labor costs, and time is money. We don't charge less because we are able to do it better and faster, we just make more money in the same amount of time. An EVO only needs a few hours a month to cover the cost of ownership, and the rest goes in the pocket of the man who learns to operate it efficiently.
@@farmfencesolutionsllc7804 thank you for taking the to reply Luke.
