    My dad and I were building fence years ago with new barb and T posts. Dad said this fence should last your lifetime. I guess I’ve just lived too long I’m 73. I’m rusty and saggy too.

    I liked this video. I'll never use a fence like this, but I like to see how things are done, I always dreamed of owning a farm, my grandparents owned a 280 acre farm in eastern Kentucky. Some of the land was essentially vertical, and some was vertical. Grandpa answered why he didn't own a tractor " a mule wont fall off a hill". Mules can walk a steeply sloped hillside with no problem. Most of the farm was growing hardwood timber, the rest was hay, and the flat part was tobacco.

      You said “was installed” lol
      It WAS and still IS installed way different than this!
      Normally folks stretch it one wire at a time and secure it one steeple at a time.
      We always used black locust posts that we grew from a coppice we made.
      I can’t tell you the fun of stretching with a one man star stretcher and trying to drive a steeple into those hard ass posts… it’s like driving a steeple into stone, while your other hand holds the whole thing tight.

    @jonathankeith2547 Před 3 lety +2

    Instead of the ratchet strainers, we use a product in Australia called a Gripple. They are a small aluminium housing about an inch long with mini ratchets inside and you feed both lengths of HT wire through it. There is a tool that you then use to tension the wire through it. On a permanent strain you wrap both ends of the wire just like a conventional ratchet tensioner, for a fence that may need to be tensioned in the future, you leave a 4” tail on one of the wires and it can be strained further if needed

The art of hedge layering has just about been lost, because it is as much an art as it is skill.
