@@StoneyRidgeFarmerLol. That reminds me of a comedian, Jeff Allen. He said before there was all this safety equipment and warning labels, the dumb kids just didn't make it. 😅
@nicoleking772 I wouldn't say tougher, just with a different skillet from the vastly different experiences they've been offered. I'm lucky enough to have grown up working on farms while going to school in the city, and although the city kids I've made friends with have never had a day of haying, I can confidently say they're still tough as nails.

Great tip at the end. I have welded galvanized before and yes it requires a special respirator. I have once had the respirator come off while grinding in a tight spot and yes it gave me flu like symptoms for 3-4 days. Wear your PPE.
I am wondering what this project costs you to get done...ball park figure.. This was, I am sure '' NOT CHEAP " ‼️ Well Congrats are on order here.. I know the cows will really benefit from this set up Most farms don't care about shade for their cattle...I am happy that you do. Have a great rest of your summer ‼️😎🤠🪶🦅🦅
Since I bought materials several years go ....Pre-covid and inflation....my material costs were around $4k...total cost of construction now would be around 20-30k for a fence like this, maybe more. You can just about figure on around $12-$16 per foot on pipe fence with high tensile woven wire
Always enjoy your videos. I'm glad you addressed in the bloopers about welding Galvanized metal. Those fumes are nasty and drinking milk will help! God Bless.
Man has your farm come along way Josh but it’s always been true. You get out of it what you put into it and lookin at this fence company you get what you pay for so you should be satisfied with the results.👍🏼‼️
Your investing in peace of mind. I don't blame you. My neighbor has a bunch of t-posts he said I could have, (those are machos dinar now). I'm small time, good for garden plots (deer). Thanks, get I'll over there (don't look gift horse in the mouth).
Sure i thought i heard him the galvanized post would be suitable for a post pounder while the wood post woukd t be. Im sure he meant the type of driver they are using is suitable for just galvanized posts. Ive seen your fencing videos and seen post drivers on wood posts in them. Just confused me for a second. Fence looks great!
My dad was a boilermaker/welder for decades. They didn’t understand the lead concentration found with the zinc in the galvanized metals. They didn’t understand lots of things. He has breathing problems today because of it all. He is pushing 80 though so not too shabby.
The Romans were immune to radiation because of all the lead in their bodies. They used a lot of lead in pipes, pots and utensils. They also used LEAD ACETATE as a sweetener. They used it like you would use sugar!!! It was the Roman version of Aspartame, just ad a lot of steroids to it, and it poisoned many!
Josh On the fencing progress; that is great is that pretty near all fencing? Any cows still pregnant? I so 51 cattle up on Stonet Ridge Farm up where I live the property it's free range the cowboy and his veterinarian daughter just today brought up & put out 84 pair of cattle cows & calves so it slow going up & down the mountain road for a month or 2, until they learn the ropes of automobiles and trucks; about that time they all wrangle them back to the valley & winter starts in for 5 & a half to 6 months. But the cattle run rough shod eat any vine ie pumpkin thats not fenced. Such is free range mountain life. Dog gone Canadians are not in control of forest fires that all can run right over.the border making it very smokey, pushing wolf packs & some potentially grizzly bears south over the border which really change the dynamics for the deer species, like elk & moose. Glad to see your progress Best David
That looks a lot easier than planting wood post and pounding T posts all day! Any idea how long those steel posts last? Mainly concerned about rust. Looks great!
these are SS40 posts....meaning schedule 40...not grandmas old chainlink fence posts...they should last 60-100 years if the soil isn't caustic in most cases. We're building a lifetime fence here my brother...t post will rot off in the ground at about 20-30 years...chineseum steel just rots apart
Seems like it might be faster to run the fence as you drive the posts sense the machine does both. You wouldn’t have to back track, but I’m ignorant when it comes to a fencing machine. I’ve only done acre sized fences. Only one with metal posts.
no sir....you'll just get in a tangled mess...drive your posts, then run the wire....you won't save time doing it the other way and your fence won't look this good either
Hi, there. QUESTION please: what keeps the fence wires from slipping, up and off the posts, on those steep hills? Really enjoyed this video, very informative and satisfying to watch these experts. God bless.
I know...that's why when a heat wave comes.....tens of thousands of cattle die from heat stress. Not good...that's for sure...I'm sure they can find a good mud hole out there or scrub brush lol
fencing isn't on the property line my brotha.....however I have my property lines marked...we are at least 200 feet from property lines in most cases here
The fence of this quality is not priced by the foot. I build fences myself, and pricing by the foot is the old way of doing it, and it is a sure enough way to sink your business. No two properties are the same. Root rocks, etc. For example, sometime I quote jobs & math tells you I come to 8 dollars a foot while your buddy I quoted at 4 for the same quality fence. It's depends on your job.
I'll never try and contact you or ask you to contact me outside of youtube or my own website....look closely at these scammers buddy.....click the channel link and take a look at it ....clearly a fake channel that stole my logo on this one....I had about 50 emails this morning from folks falling for this ridiculous scammer...no telling who actually contacted the scammer! Research it a little bit and you'll find that the channel was totally fake and a scammer, sorry that happened to you and hundreds of other's ....youtube needs to do better at keeping this from happening
I agree with you that utube needs to get a handle on this. Working in law enforcement for 32 years I had my doubts that it was you. That’s why I asked this morning. Thanks.
this video is completely unrelated buddy.....we're looking for a new home for her that doesn't have farm animals or cats and while I appreciate your opinion....this is my decision to make in the long run....she's still here and is behaving just fine, but she won't stay..if we have to put her down then we'll do so for sure..I'm old school...and I have to make sure she has a safe place to live for her and her new owner

This section of fencing cost me around $30k
Wouldn’t the tie with the chuck leave a sharp edge on the outside of your fence? Just ask’n in case there were cattle or kids on both sides.?.?.?.?

Sturdy fences make great neighbours and happy cows. The forest will become the cow's refuge. Nice video and great team of fencers without the swords.
Beautiful fencing, a great investment to such a well thought out farm. Quality right there!
Yes indeed!
Morning Josh its awesome you are getting your fence line fixed
Thats awesome so happy you got it done

Great way to build a fence, thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
WOW ,watching is easy !
That is some quality fencing, Josh.
Amazing!!! That’s a lot of fencing in 3 days! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Thank goodness it's done! What a relief it must be.
I am wondering what this project costs you to get done...ball park figure..
This was, I am sure
'' NOT CHEAP " ‼️

I know the cows will really benefit from this set up
Most farms don't care about shade for their cattle...I am happy that you do.

Good morning
LOL! Kinda like my t-post pounder, only on an industrial scale! 😁👍
Great video! I am in the process of getting ready to fence my property and you are right, it’s not cheap.
Those machines sure as heck beat a hand T-post driver which I had to use to drive T-posts for some hog wire at our place.
Looking good as always.
Thank you kindly
Looking good!

Hi, there. QUESTION please: what keeps the fence wires from slipping, up and off the posts, on those steep hills? Really enjoyed this video, very informative and satisfying to watch these experts. God bless.
the wire is tied to the post with post ties.....tied up and tied down look back a few weeks ...I have a video dedicated to this
OK, thanks.@@StoneyRidgeFarmer

Josh, what gauge are u using on your fence posts?
the posts are SS40 (similar to schedule 40 pipe)
Where did you get the t-shirt you are wearing on day 3? Barbed wire and cowgirl silhouette....
what is the t shirt you wore with the barb wire and cowgirl?
that's my farm fencing shirt, we used to sell those

Now he wants to brag about how much he spends
I bet it would be even more expensive if it wasn't in a youtube video...
