Knotless Easy End Assembly??

- Knotless Easy Fast end Assembly? You heard right. This week, fencing contractor turned inventor and manufacturer Peter Barrett talks us through tying an end assembly brace wire. His method eliminates the need to feed wire through staples, reducing time. He also shows us how, with the use of two staples he does away with the need for joiners or straining knots.

Used Peter’s method about a dozen times - on 6 and 7 wire electric fences using 2.5 high tensile wire.
Great to see you've caught up with Peter! One of the legends of the industry.
Most of us still fence with stays or timber box assemblies (as opposed to steel posts, etc), so these tutorials are worth their weight in gold. Thank you! 🙏🏼

Just in time. Im fencing my property. Gracias amigo from California.
A "Knotless easy end assembly" yet he ties two knots?? :-) A handy tutorial none the less. Thanks.
Absolutely brilliant, Cheers.
Another fabulous video Tim. Thanks for takng the time.
Thanks Tim. Just yesterday I was discussing with my boss about tying off end assemblies.
Great video & Great Tips.
Thanks Tim, tried knotless box end this morning, worked a treat. Had to watch the video a few times to work out what you were doing.
that is a very good tip. and hi from scotland
life saver
Looks like a lot less physical effort there Mr. Thompson. I like knotting the way you do in your videos. I try to make each knot closer to how you do it. When making a dozen knots a day... it makes the time go by faster. 😁
The knotless method can't be used on a corner assembly. I have a fence repair job that is due to a car knocking over 4 line posts and a brace post. The corner post is still there but has a slight lean. This is a field fence that has 13 high tensile horizontal wires. I was intrigued by the comment in the video that the theoretical way to brace is to have 1 loop for every 2 high tensile wires of the fence. This would seem to indicate that I needed 6 loops. There was also a mention that maybe 3 loops is the maximum that is needed? This is kind of confusing because every brace I see on CZcams is using two loops of wire. The previous fence contractor used 4 loops of wire. The loops were twisted together. I can see the advantage of twisting all loops at once because there is no tugging on the wire to get all the slack out that would be needed with for example a ratchet strainer that is attached to the last loop. Havinig more than 2 loops or needing more than 2 loops seems to be an undiscussed topic for all the fence straining videos. The idea here seems to be sharing the strain on the end post with the brace post. They both are the same size so it looks like the idea would be to share the load equally. A 13 high tensile field wire fence could possibly have thousands of pounds of strain on it and it would make sense that more than 4 wires would be needed that are in a 2 loop brace.
Probably a silly question, how is the tension held on the strainer wire after you cut the wire at the back of the wire strainer? I’m not sure if it’s the way he is overlapping the wires and where did the loose end come from that he tied off second? My way of thinking would be that the loose end would have been in the wire strainer. Not knit-picking, I genuinely want to understand how his technique works. Thanks for the video and info Tim.
Did you get a new camera?? The vids look amazing!! Crisp and clear!!
👍👍👍
i would have thought the easier way would be to use a piece of timber on the diagonal using gal brackets (the ideal brackets for this purpose may not have been invented yet) and tek screws. i could probably use tek screws through hoop iron twisted around the timber to secure it. i hate staples. i'd have used big fat tek screws for the initial wiring around then used those nifty wire stays and tek screws like ive seen on other tim thompson videos.
Newbie here. Enjoy your knowledgable videos. It’s not quite clear for me,
