Thank you! Makes installing my Redbrand fencing much easier!!
I have watched a lot of these tutorials and I must say, this was by far, the best. Thank you.
For those of you asking about tension on the very top wire and very bottom wire... those two wires (even though they’re being held under SOME tension after all the middle wires are cut and terminated - do tend to loosen a little. What I do is “re-grab” that wire with a single barb wire stretcher and either one come along or a heavy duty cargo strap. The barb wire stretcher is shaped like a small coke bottle and has a ring with a cutout that can be hammered down tight to pinch the wire (before or out in front of the post). Then grab or hook the ratchet strap to it. Connect the other end to either your dummy post, regular or next post, or what ever you’re using to stretch the wire. Then tighten the INDIVIDUAL wire and terminate it to the post. This technique can be used on both wood and metal pipe fence. I had to do that because sometimes the right tool for the job (gripple tool or having two strain boards and gripples or crimps was unavailable. Where there’s a will there’s a way!) 😂
Thank you so much. Within the months time im tackling a project similar to this, though not for livestock 😆
Thanks guys ,you saved me a lot of time trying to get the ends and corners right
Nice video. Very professionally done and informative. thanks.
I would be helpful if you demonstrated this on less than perfect conditions, such as uneven field.

lol. Based on how far that post fell in the ground, it looked like that hole wasn't dug by the post hole digger in the video.
😂 I totally chuckled when I saw that! No way he dug that 4 foot deep hole with that little post hole digger.
Very helpful tutorial, thanks for the tips! My project will require about 800 feet of your fence. There are a few dips and rises in elevation. Not too extreme, but it's not totally flat either. Can you give me some ideas on how to deal with the uneven terrain? Thanks again for the video!
These guys not only know what they're doing, but they can explain it clearly, and they have close-ups exactly when needed. However, at 9:50 be prepared to switch from one side of the fence to the other - you may not realize right away that the dummy brace, formerly on your right, is now on your left.
Was your brace wire the wrong way at 6:43, then at 7:35 it was changed? I've done them the way at 6:43 and it will pull the corner post out of the ground as you tighten the brace wire. I always put 2 brace wires on, one each way to hold both posts in the ground.
Excellent!!
Thanks i learned something, use a dummy post to put stretchers to
Is it better to keep the fence off of the ground to prevent rusting of the bottom wire?
I usually put a staple on the line right before I cut it to tie it off. You do lose a little tension if you do not do it. Good video.
ok maybe a stupid question to you, but to me I dont know so I am asking. What side of the post are you fencing? and do you have to cut the fence at every corner or do you just bend it around the corner and staple it and go...?
for farm fence you fence to the inside. you can go around corners
When fencing woven wire splicing was relatively easy but I can't find a good way to splice welded wire with the 2x4 inch spacings. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks
Cut them in between longer..
The yanks have a rare way of fencing. I have to wander wonder when is the 2 stands of barb at the top and 1 strand of barb at the bottom? It stops the cattle shoving the noses underneath or leaning their heads over the sheep wire ultimately shortening the lifespan. Plus will you lot learn to twist the bull wire being used in the strainer and post as doing this it will make it more secure and it will stop animals getting trapped between the gap.
I’m using Red Brand fence in my backyard for my dogs. I’m using 4x4 posts and I want the fence it be on the inside of my posts because this looks best. How do you turn a corner on 4x4 post when you’re running fence on inside?!?
I would suggest terminating the fabric in the corner by tying it to the corner post. This will prevent the fence from attempting to pull out of the corner. (Tension on the fabric will run in a straight line from end to end rather than around the inside of the corner). This is more work, but it will result in a better product.
فكرة ممتازة
What is the distance between each metal post and how many between each wooden post?
8 to 10 feet max. I went 12 first time and then had to fix it with more. Same with end posts. Make sure to put end posts in deep or they will pull up.
What about corners? Should I go around the corner and continue to the next gate, or does each leg need to be terminated as shown?
you can pull around corners.
I found it is best to terminate at each corner. Make later changes and repairs easier. Sometimes even terminate in the middle of a long run.
So...what do you do to join two rolls between posts?
5:15 shows how
Did it say anywhere in the anything about spacing between posts?? If it did I missed it...THAT is what I am looking for!!
Doug Chaney Red Brand website says 8-12 feet between posts using woven field fencing like what's used in the video.
@@BC-yv8ew How do you fence on a slope like this? Do you have to cut the wire netting and do it in segments?
@@chatteyj
Field fence conforms to the up-and-down shape of the hills.
How do you attach the second run on an inside corner post?
2 T POSTS DRIVEN IN THE GROUND WILL ALSO WORK AS A DUMMPY POST....DRIVE AT AN ANGLE AGAINST THE PULL AND USE COME ALONG FOR EACH POST...1 COME ALONG PER POST...MAYBE EVEN A THIRD IN THE MIDDLE.
I enjoyed. There were two small tools that were used. One was called a fence tool used for wrapping wire. When I looked on line for Redbrand, the company was UK. What was that tool used to wrap called? Also, when the person attached the wire on the metal fence post, he used a tool to wrap it. What was that tool called? Thank you
Zeb Is this what you're referencing? www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/zareba-wire-twisting-tool?cm_vc=-10005
6:42 Fence stretcher holder not sold in stores.
Does the fence go on the inside or outside of post?
Typically, you want the fence fabric/wire to be on the same side of the post as the animals you want to control. That is, if you want to keep cows/horses in a pasture, but the fabric/wire on the inside of the posts. This does a few things: 1. It provides a smoother surface that is less likely to injure the animal 2. It forces the animals to push the fabric through the posts to escape (nearly impossible), instead of merely breaking or loosening the clips or staples used to hold the fabric/wire up.
I use a small boxed in wrench to wrap my wire rather than a fencing tool.
Where can I find that nifty tool you used to wrap your excess wire,,,right around 3 1/2 minutes?
Billybeargaming and clancrusher Here's the one we use:

The hardest part is standing the fence up.. I installed a section of 100 linear feet of fence by myself and that was quite a chore..
How do you fence like this on a slope? Do you have to cut the wire netting and do it in segments?
Can you please give me the specific name of this fence? I have tried to find the exact name but to no avail. I would like to use this type of fence for a trellis on my veggie garden, but I need to know the specific name of it otherwise I'm presented with all other kind of wire fences such as rectangular shaping, others with an X in the center, etc.
Myrrth S this is field hog wire fence or grassland fence. it is installed by wood post or metal T post.If you are interested in,pls welcome to me. I will help you. skype: wiremesh_yan whatsapp:+8615032721108 E-mail: wiremesh_yan@yahoo.com
Myrrth S While it's brand name is Redbrand it is commonly referred to as redtop fence.The fence depicted in the tutorial is 47 inches high and 330 ft long. There is a white tag tied to the fence roll and the first set of numbers will be 1047. An entire roll typically costs about $135- $150 depending on where you live. If you only need a little then I suggest you go to the Craigslist farm and garden section for your area or your local classified ads as you can sometimes find someone that has replaced their fences and has some of their old fence or a partial roll of the new left over. Hope that helped.
Jim Hudson Hello. are you manufacturer or seller? hope we can coorperate,thank you.
Sunny Zhang No, I'm not a seller nor am I a manufacturer....I just need about 12 feet of a thin gauge 4" x 4" squares to grow my squash, cucumbers & tomatoes upward. I'd hate to have to buy more than 15 feet when my garden is just not that big. I hope you know of someone that may be able to help perhaps a rancher somewhere toward the south part of Texas!
We are manufacturer of wire mesh fence, and we can supply you with high quality fence as you needed. Pls advise me the quantity you needed and your e-mail,then i will give you a good price.
How many tpost clips per pole?
Bare minimum is 3 but 4 or even 5 is much better.
How far too space post.
You need the EZ FENZER stretch the fence with a Truck.
Oh..that's how you do it.
You can buy a staple gun up to 50 mm saw a. contractor in N Z use one works good just a bit of an out lay at first saves o lot of time than a hammer ,great if you build a lot of fences
can these wire hold pigs
.......Or you could gut strain it and save an hour or two.
Nice video but should of gotten more close-ups of what the guy is doing in all steps
Go to woodprix if you'd like to build it yourself.
i believe this fence is called no climb horse fence
+JIMMY TATE Jimmy, no it is not no-climb horse fence. Entirely different pattern.
JIMMY TATE its not horse fence
Sheep and goat fence
no dummy brace needed.
Excellent tutorial. Could do without the annoying background "music"
