How to tie and end knot, then strain a fence and tie off the tensioned wire using a knot. Allows the construction of a fence using no crimps or gripples.
like your video and you are the only one that I have found on these videos who has stated that when tension your fence wire ,you start at the bottom thank you
Thanks mate you're bloody legend. The wife and I bought 40 acres a few months back north side of Gympie. We've realised that we need fencing for when we get a few horses and some cattle. The neighbour has helped us a bit where he can but he's pretty busy himself which has still partly left us scratching, clueless and almost close to giving up and hiring someone. You mate are a bloody legend thank you ! Rob.
You have come a long way since then , there’s a bad edit in this one at the end of the knot and new tech means a reshoot with Dave’s clip.thanks for all your tips so far , you need a medal.
Tim your videos are gold and we really love your style and humour. The goat test was very funny! I'm new to fencing and have a few acres we need to replace fencing for. I'd love to see a video on basic fence runs. What posts, droppers and best gauge / tensile for different uses. In our case, we have no stock so it's mainly to keep the dogs out and the chooks safe.
Curious why is it a bad habit to strain to the post and tie an end knot with no knots in the wire? Also do you have a knot you use for a hot wire jumper or just use a crimp?
Hi Tim I've seen your initial vineyard set up video. Did you do another on spacing the intermediate posts between your end assembly s. Àlso why do the vineyards in northern Victoria not have posts nearly as tall as your vineyard trellis posts.
Hi Tim never see wire despensers , around here did you make yours,lot of plain wire now is in small reels for a bar to go through or is there a simple despenser for them too? cheers
Thanks so much for your excellent videos Tim, I have learnt a lot. I'm getting ready to replace some old fences on our 2.5 acres - what is your preferred wire thickness for the high tensile top and bottom straining wires? (I am planning to use hinge lock dog wire) Thanks, Ben
Mate between you and the video operator you made a total hash of that knot, probably should have reshot with longer tails and no flashback on the video.

Bless your son. And thanks Timmo. Really helping me.
These videos have helped me a lot. Thanks Tim.

Really helpful thanks
Like your video. Would this knot also be good for mild wire? Not everyone converted to high tensile over in the UK.
I've tied off hundreds of line wires from 12 ga HT to 8 ga MS without any lazy loop and have never seen one break.
GV Donald brand wire strainers are made in South Africa and sold in Australia by Waratah as the Wizard range of wire strainers.
1st knot,known as termination knot as well,if I am not mistaken😅
What size wire do you typically use? I use 12 gauge, 200psi. Seems hard to make knots.

aluminium or concrete posts?

Which tension wire is the best to use for the electric stand off? Soft of medium tensile?

Tim Thompson how far apart are the intermediate posts? Do you you need them as well steel pickets
