Day Steve, innovative and thoughtful work. Appreciate the way you learn from previous fails and modify accordingly. Hope your business flourishes.
Brilliant job , you make it look so easy 👍
Incredable the machinery and tools you have to make the job so efficient. You make fencing look so easy !
Thanks Ashley!
Classic bloopers at the end there!
Brilliant
Well done! nothing like that here in the states that I know of
Hi guys. Great tips! What is the model is post driver you use equipped with those hydraulic levelers? Never seen before. Such a great tool to make post plumb
Hey - you guys are good - nice system, ya must have learnt something when you came over here. Two questions, whats the approx cost of a complete end assembly? Have you considered pre-drilling the post with two opposing holes at ground level (one slightly lower than the other) and driving your picket right through the post? - we do that a lot here with wooden posts as a quick foot. Cheers
Could I see more of the drill press you made? I want to replicate it!
Very good video. So you guys sell those straps that tie the picket to the post?
Hey Coen. Yes we do. We'll be launching these on our website shortly.
Great video, Thankyou... On a 90 degree corner I'm having failed strainers where they are pulling in towards the centre of the paddock Should a corner have an internal stay on then?
Thanks.
Yep! A 90 degree corner should definitely have a stay to prevent it from pulling in towards the paddock. 💪
@@WaltersFencing Thankyou, that explains a lot.. Keep up the great videos.. they are really helpful..
What size of plow discs did you use for the stay pads? around 30cm? 35cm? 40cm? Don´t they bend where the stay pushes?? How thick in mm were the discs you used? I ask because i can only get the ones around 35cm where i live. Thanks a lot!!!
As mentioned in the video we haven't used the plow discs in a very long time so we can't really recommend any to you, sorry about that!
Are the nuts galvanized?
What´s the 3m stay wall thickness? do you have different wall thickness options? or just one serves various purpouses? Thanks!
there's two different thickness stays for normal or heavy duty stays.
@@mattjacomos2795 what’s the heavy duty one? Cheers!
Are the strainers pointed?
No. We are using 150Nb (6") galvanised pipe, so it is hollow inside
@@WaltersFencing bit too stoney here for that, wooden strainers at 2.1 metres need a spike hole first to punch through the stones. I used to dig and set 2 sets of strainers and stays a day with a shovel and crowbar before ramming then in, took 1 1/2 hours for each one. One day I did 4 but not again shes hard yakka that many a day. www.nzsoils.org.nz/PageFiles/49/SoilPics/Large/Lismore%20Shallow%20Stony%20Silt%20Loam.jpg
looks like a copy of the waratah stay assembly
Hey John, thanks for watching. We first saw a tie back stay in a Lyco brochure at Ag-Quip around 25 years ago. I believe a fencing contractor in Victoria came up with the idea. I imagine that all the tie back stays on the market would have evolved from this original idea.
He showed one he did 23 years ago doubt Waratah was doing that sort of set up that long ago
the 23yo one he showed is slightly different to the current waratah version and as his reply to me said he believes a lot of the versions on the market today have evolved from a victorian fencing contractors idea the waratah version is a very good one but is fairly expensive but when compared to concreting and welding the assemblies works out cheaper
Your stay s are to high up the post it acts as a jack! They need to be long and low
Your correct and that's why the triangle needs to be reversed. Structural geometry 101
