From someone who installs fence for a living (in Asheville NC) it's refreshing to finally see a video of people who know what they're doing build a fence. Good video!
Divineing rods aye, Does this guy not know the James Randi foundation has ONE MILLION DOLLARS Up for grabs for anyone that can prove an ability to find anything, Beyond the ability of mere chance. Gotta build a lot of fence to put a million in your pocket.
I have a lot of freaking tools, and I don’t install fences. But, somehow I feel like I “need” a post driver, 6” nailer AND a STIHL climbing saw. Great video guys!
It's not that hard. I replaced a rotten wooden one with a vinyl one over a couple of weekends. I rented a jackhammer to reuse the existing holes and poured concrete around the vinyl posts. I'm not that big and am developing tendonitis in my wrists so I used the 60# bags
That’s a nice looking corral rail fence. I wish it was that easy in the west but we have to auger holes to set the posts. You’d never get them to drive into the ground here unless it was after winter rains and before the ground starts drying out. In summer months you’d be hard pressed to get steel t-posts to drive.
These boys know their stuff and my favorite part is that they have fun doin it. When you take life too serious it ends up being a lot shorter. Way to go guys. I appreciate the content very much.
You guys made it look easy. Good to see those nails. Screws are terrible for fences. They are brittle and more likely to break. That’s why we still don’t use screws for wood framing. Nails allow for slight movement and expansion and contraction of the wood
You make this look a lot easier than it is. My husband installed this same fence around our horse pasture here in KY(we hired out the post driving, and he did the rest himself). Yours looks great!
Hi Carla: I’m in ky and looking to hire out the post driving too. Can recommended who you hired? Most fence installers want to set in concrete which is much more expensive
I can say without a doubt I have never put up a Kentucky four board fence but that one looks nice. I had thought about putting up a privacy fence And get those panels that are already put together, hanging a panel and post every week to keep my costs down. It will eventually get completed.
Impressive! Clean lines, staggered planks, vertical face trim planks, deep posts, ample fasteners, great job. Really nice, clean lines, parallel with overall grade. Perfect, even post spacing, viable production techniques allowing high quality and a viable project. Great job.
The fence looks sharp out there Hax! Changes the whole look of the entrance to your home. Nice job and I think a great choice of fencing. Thanks for taking us along!
I enjoyed your hydroponic video so went through your list eventually choosing this one. I’m a single California woman in a gated community where fences aren’t even allowed but I watched it anyway because it was so entertaining. Plus, I love seeing strong, handsome men doing guy stuff. Good job. 👏🏻
What I gained from this tutorial: To get the perfect fence, use the imperfect family members as posts, drive them into the ground with sufficient force, and some time later you'll have a perfect fence. It's also quicker if you use a custom built machine. 😁👍
Unfortunately, the fence pounder wouldn't work for most of my yard. I've go SO.MANY. ROCKS. From small ones to 300 lb ones, they're everywhere under my lawn. I found out a couple years after buying my house that across the street used to be a gravel pit, which lets you imagine just how many rocks are in my yard. I've been redoing my sprinklers for the past couple years and it's been horrible.
Maybe put in posts with a ground screw (and place posts inside the screw? Depending on what type of rocks, a ground screw sometimes even can break larger rocks when going in. But I feel with you when needing to dig a trench... I had to use a large angle grinder with a stone disk in my yards at times as well when doing such work.
You guys need a show in Branson. Not only informative, but the quick witted remarks are spot on. Find a time to throw in “that’s what she said!” Stay safe from Mid-Missouri.
Over 30 years ago we replaced a board 6 foot fence with the 4 x 4 posts. All pretty normal except I decided to wrap a good grade of plastic around the post bases and a few inches above ground level. Ten years later we finally got tired of needing to paint the pickets every year. I was anxious to see how well the posts faired.... Just like bran new to be sure.... I gave them to a friend who was needing posts as new looking posts.... I put in chain link and saved a whole pile of painting from then on.
What kinda paint could you be using, that you would need to paint every year. Word to the wise high quality paint/primer is actually the cheapest paint there is over time, outside.
As a High Voltage "fence" builder, I'd say that's pretty clean. Please keep in mind, when building these lifetime fences, to leave 10ft minimum in front of any Electrical URD Transformer opening (green boxes).
Don't copy this American so-called fence builder/installer. The guy is nuts. And soon he will be without daughters and friends, killed and/or injured by his promotion and allowance of unsafe work habits,
I used to be an equestrian fencer and that is pretty much exactly how we used to do post and rail fencing, just with added treatment to stop the horses from eating it.
Great Fence idea. We just moved to a small town and I have 100' x 135' lot. Needs a fence as I have 3 med sized dogs and 1 yorkie. I may have to improvise and place a board lower to the ground or use 5 or 6 boards to keep him in. But I love the clean lines of this fence and minimal materials. Now just to rent a post driver. LOL
Looks amazing. I have a start up fence business and I love watching your videos with SWI and learning new things. Great stuff from some great people! Thanks guys
your power company is going to love it when they come out and see that you have placed a 4 board fence in the 10 foot clear zone in front of the transformer. not to bad but might call and see if they can come out and turn it 90 degrees before they find it and charge you to move it.
As a fencing contractor in Nsw Australia we make the bay before the root a bit short and then back to standard width otherwise cut out the tree root simple
You can also use the trick to find half to find more than 2 equal parts. Using the trick to 60 inches you mark at 20 and 40 and now you have 3 equal marks
The fence looks fantastic . I love the trick with the measuring tape and staggering the joins . That protech Evo is an amazing piece of equipment . I did notice it was the British flag on it not an English flag . 😉
As a Couch Contractor, LOL, I must say that fence Looks Great Guys!! Well Done, now if only I had some land that needed a fence, I know who I would call to do the job.
Nice to see that Mark is still alive, have not seen him make videos in a while. There is no such thing as a "no dig" fence around here with the coral rock. You need a carbide tipped auger on a skid steer, a jackhammer or if you are lucky, dynamite!
When two boards meet at the center of the post they have to share half the width of the post to be nailed or screwed in my case. Thats why I offset the runners/horizontal boards on the post that way you can screw them with 3.5" torc 25 exterior crosscut thread screws across the entire width of the post. Then I put fence posts about 2' in the ground and 6' above, with the fence boards 6" off the ground that way I get a 6.5' fence. Thats what I did for my courtyard fence. Came out great good.
Flank the tree. There will be an extra post, and that run will be closer together (with the posts), then resume. Put the flanking posts as far away from tree on either side as necessary to avoid the superficial roots.
From a lineman's perspective, the biggest mistake, (and only 1 comment mentioned it) is installing the fence right in front of the transformer. We have to get into those. You are supposed to maintain a 10' clearance to the front, and 3' from the sides. We have literally cut down trees, bushes and even fences to gain access, and homeowners don't have a leg to stand on if they sue for damages. You may want to figure out a way to make that section removable.
According to my calculations, unless these posts are tapered at the base and the ground extremely soft / wet, there is no to bash these 6"? diameter posts into the ground without destroying them.
as a professional DIYer and longtime couch coach, I think you guys did everything wrong just right. My teacher told me the best workers are the ones who can effectively hide their butcher work. It looks great from my house!
This method wouldn’t have worked on my friend’s farm in upstate NY. We had to auger with a bobcat and then rock drill/ Jack hammer out the wholes to get to 3-4 foot depth. There were very few holes that didn’t need extra help clearing out. Boy do I wish it could’ve been this easy.
The fence turned out amazing and I didn’t see a thing wrong with how it was laid out, from start to finish. I have about 350’ that I need done myself just like it South Georgia: any takers?
Thats an awesome fence, But i think i would leave the post as is and put a cap on to keek the rain & snow off! The snow depending on what part of the country ur in is more damaging than rain!!!
Never really paid attention to that adhesive on the nails. I always thought it was there just to keep the nails together. Learn something everyday. Great entertaining video! New sub here.
This is pretty much exactly how we put up fence, we use string to drive posts with a level, we also use string to mark the top board with thumb tacks to put the string where you want it on each post you need to adjust on. It looks like you guys are using deck boards of some sort though we use fence boards oak or popular depending on customer preference, and we have a pre made 3 board/4board template to mark top mark for each board on the posts. You guys have a top tier post driver too ours is a two man yanmar dump bed on tracks converted by taking the bed off and putting rails going up on front and back to keep posts on the driver and we put the actual post driver on the back and used the hydraulic hoses to power the driver that previously raised and lowered the old dumb bed.
Really enjoying your channel - American Indian Hogan building hint - lay the ground end of your poles in the fire and scorch them well. They will never rot..
I do commercial work for a big fence company in my area . Talking thousand feet jobs. Do jobs for turner construction always or airports or industrial building. This is a good video
Great job guys! It isn't as easy as you made it look but that is because you're in the business. As for the post driver I have been around one mounted on a skid loader that was really slick but yours did a great job also.
fence looks great nice job but here in PA you could never drive that many posts with that machine we have toooo many rocks beneath the surface ,I only wished it could be that easy to out a post in
Kentucky Four Board is so pretty. Don't see enough of it down here in central Florida unless you're in horse country. Hoping to help change that one day! Great work!
they would have fun trying that in WV, mountains, mountains, and more mountains... hell around my house you'd be lucky to get anywhere between 6 to 18 before hitting rock... yup a fence in my yard would be a no dig fence, since one would have to blast the holes first...
I have had "suitable for ground contact" PT posts rot below the concrete collar within 5 yrs. My next fence project, I will buy the posts a year in advance ,sticker and space the posts to dry,and cover with sheetmetal . The crap in the store is too green! Then treat with Cu napthenate ("terminate") that which goes below ground and timber oil above ground.
Nice call out to "Hoges", this would have reminded him of the days he was building the Sydney Harbour Bridge :D .. which was a long way before he was Dundee
Great advice! I now know the secrets to fast fenc6on my property. Ill easy save myself 4k doing it myself thanks to your help. All i need to do is buy a 80 Thousand dollar piece of equipment!!
Utility lines are frequently mis-marked by radio frequency location equipment because the device basically puts you over the center of the field - often lines are run in parallel and can be picked up in the field so the center line is skewed.
This is exactly what Im looking for... What is the exact terminology I use to look for a local fence installer that can do this? also, what is the current typical cost for installing a fence like this?
Nice looking fence. Will the wood still be treaded somehow? It looks like it is only initially heat treated but nothing more (and where you cut, you loose some of the Treatment) or is the weather such that is it not a problem? In Germany leaving it like that, would probably give you a live span of 5-15 years (depending if the moisture can get well out of the wood/ Shade/ Sun reaching the fence). Like you tip with the wheat eater! So true! On my last fence posts replacements, I have treated them now with Kali water glass. Lets see f they last longer than my older one (North side facing, always wet ground with little sun. Some posts I set now inside a ground screw and put an Aluminium post so I don't have to change them as often...
Great looking fence and looks like a well oiled team!! Hey, would those be 60 Penny nails?? Man we used those to nail purlins back in the 90's building pole barns... we used a framing hammer though, and we were MEN... NO wimpy nail guns!! (though we wished we had one)
As you walk along all you gotta do is twist it when you pass the spot where you know the trench is and it will tell you where the trench is with the water, power and pot of gold
I do mainly pvc. Too bad 811 doesn’t mark cable lines lol. I hit those with the auger all the time. Wrap them shits right up haha. One time I was drillin a hole and the home owner comes out wavin and screaming I’m hitting his Wi-Fi because I pulled the wire out the house and pulled his router off the shelf lol. That’s one beast post slammer though. I have a Rhino for chain link. Rarely am I doing this kinda fence.
17:09 I know most nail guns have safety measures preventing them from firing off a nail unless the point is pressed against something, but that lack of muzzle discipline still makes me wince.
As a couch professional what you guys did wrong with this demonstration of this particular fence project was that you did it on the wrong property. 😏 obviously you should’ve done it on MY PROPERTY! 😂 Great video 👍🏻
Love the measuring hacks! Nawthcackalacky boy bringing the tricks..... And British engineering. Great video as usual! Thank you for the ideas as usual!
From someone who installs fence for a living (in Asheville NC) it's refreshing to finally see a video of people who know what they're doing build a fence. Good video!
Thanks! It’s refreshing to hear a fence installer compliment instead of criticize. 😂
D
Do you know Richard or Mary Calloway in horse shoe nc.
Divineing rods aye,
Does this guy not know the James Randi foundation has
ONE MILLION DOLLARS
Up for grabs for anyone that can prove an ability to find anything,
Beyond the ability of mere chance. Gotta build a lot of fence to put a million in your pocket.
+qq+
I have a lot of freaking tools, and I don’t install fences. But, somehow I feel like I “need” a post driver, 6” nailer AND a STIHL climbing saw. Great video guys!

You can never have too many tools.
Well said.
Everyone needs a bigger hammer.
That’s a nice looking corral rail fence. I wish it was that easy in the west but we have to auger holes to set the posts. You’d never get them to drive into the ground here unless it was after winter rains and before the ground starts drying out. In summer months you’d be hard pressed to get steel t-posts to drive.

Yes, these guys do awesome work. Just goes to show.....having the right tools and the proper knowledge makes the job look easy.

I love you guys! I've got to put up about 600 ft of fence this spring and not gonna lie...I'm dreading the post-hole-digging.
Rent an auger
The fence looks sharp out there Hax! Changes the whole look of the entrance to your home. Nice job and I think a great choice of fencing. Thanks for taking us along!
Thanks so much Gord! We love it.

Incidentally, I also loved watching your daughter drive that massive tractor 💪🏻
Very nice , we put up a private fence 10 years ago and still strong.
What I gained from this tutorial: To get the perfect fence, use the imperfect family members as posts, drive them into the ground with sufficient force, and some time later you'll have a perfect fence. It's also quicker if you use a custom built machine. 😁👍
And use a dial scene rod and trust that before you hit a high voltage electrical line and kill yourself.
Only screw up is location. I would look better in front of my house! Looks really good.
😄 Thank you!
Trust in Jesus Christ the only LORD and Savior Amen and Amen repent for the kingdom of GOD is at hand

Wedge cut the ends of the posts before you drive them

From a pro fence builder up in Canada - this look is great and nothing wrong with the install. The one handed chainsaw cuts was very impressive.
Canada? How you making it out up there in that socialist run country
Don't copy this American so-called fence builder/installer. The guy is nuts. And soon he will be without daughters and friends, killed and/or injured by his promotion and allowance of unsafe work habits,
I have built a couple of fences…..and let me tell you, after watching this video, I did it wrong!!! Great video guys.
That's a beautiful fence. When I picture a perfect fence for a property that's what I imagine. Keeps the critters in the yard and yet looks beautiful.
I used to be an equestrian fencer and that is pretty much exactly how we used to do post and rail fencing, just with added treatment to stop the horses from eating it.
How do you get the horses to hold the swords? On a side note, I've never seen horses fence. I bet it's awesome.
Great Fence idea. We just moved to a small town and I have 100' x 135' lot. Needs a fence as I have 3 med sized dogs and 1 yorkie.

Done the sticks for years, was taught with one or two
Heck I use my pocket knife.
Learned it in my late teens working in the oil and gas feilds.
Nice to see that Mark is still alive, have not seen him make videos in a while. There is no such thing as a "no dig" fence around here with the coral rock. You need a carbide tipped auger on a skid steer, a jackhammer or if you are lucky, dynamite!
Use a core drill 👍👍

Great Job Rich Guys.
great dream, But I'm stuck with shovels, string and screws. 🤷🏽♂️ All I got.

I live in the rockies, and personally I love that fence.
In Australia the rule is (and the signs say)
“Dial BEFORE you Dig”
Good advice that saves lives.
Never really paid attention to that adhesive on the nails. I always thought it was there just to keep the nails together. Learn something everyday.
Great entertaining video! New sub here.
You gotta hold a shovel, if for nothing else, to keep the ground from moving.
Good banter on the job site and appreciate the info.
We got special guys to do that; they work 4 the local council 👍👍
This is pretty much exactly how we put up fence, we use string to drive posts with a level, we also use string to mark the top board with thumb tacks to put the string where you want it on each post you need to adjust on.

Really enjoying your channel - American Indian Hogan building hint - lay the ground end of your poles in the fire and scorch them well. They will never rot..
When I was 6 or 7 my grandpa found a Y stick, showed me how to hold it. That thing would drop down all by itself, it pulled! They really work.
I do commercial work for a big fence company in my area . Talking thousand feet jobs. Do jobs for turner construction always or airports or industrial building. This is a good video
Great job guys! It isn't as easy as you made it look but that is because you're in the business. As for the post driver I have been around one mounted on a skid loader that was really slick but yours did a great job also.
"Did you depricate in my yard!" Classic Haxman. Let me know when the coffee table book comes out on Haxmanisms.
I would like to see some tips on how make fences on rocky grounds
The only thing more astonishing than dowsing is that people are still falling for it.
Well sitting here from my couch, looks like you boys did hell of a job on this one.
That's cute that wherever you are the posts pound down and don't splinter on solid limestone - nice to see. Thanks for the video
Love your fence work! So nice straight as an arrow. I’ve been telling my husband to spray around fence instead of weed eating. Point proven, thanks.
My uncles cousins brother put a fence in and he did it way different, but this was still awesome! Good job !!
😉 Thanks!
Short answer: Use a post-driver in sandy loam. Great looking fence.
fence looks great nice job but here in PA you could never drive that many posts with that machine we have toooo many rocks beneath the surface ,I only wished it could be that easy to out a post in
Kentucky Four Board is so pretty. Don't see enough of it down here in central Florida unless you're in horse country. Hoping to help change that one day! Great work!
Thanks! Yes we love the look of it.
Yep, horse country, those rails get run on the other side though.
they would have fun trying that in WV, mountains, mountains, and more mountains... hell around my house you'd be lucky to get anywhere between 6 to 18 before hitting rock... yup a fence in my yard would be a no dig fence, since one would have to blast the holes first...
I've pounded many guard rail post all through west Virginia. ( most recently Ghent)
Couch builder here and you are right, you really messed up that fence.
cover the bottom of the post with PVC or weather tin an you can weed eat it np, Great video
I have had "suitable for ground contact" PT posts rot below the concrete collar within 5 yrs.
My next fence project, I will buy the posts a year in advance ,sticker and space the posts to dry,and cover with sheetmetal . The crap in the store is too green! Then treat with Cu napthenate ("terminate") that which goes below ground and timber oil above ground.
Nice call out to "Hoges", this would have reminded him of the days he was building the Sydney Harbour Bridge :D .. which was a long way before he was Dundee
I am getting ready to try this for my first time. How deep do you put the post?
That damn fence looks awesome, wish i had friends with fence tools
Fence looks great! What are the posts spaced at? Are you exactly at 8 feet apart?
I get more flack for using roundup on fencelines- but i have 5 acres I have to maintain by myself! Yay for roundup!
Gardening vinegar or salt. RoundUp is liquid pure evil.
Each state has own rules for underground utility protection. In PA its 18 inches either side of utility. Dial 811 always to have locates performed.
Thumbs up for the one armed which witch.
Great advice!
I now know the secrets to fast fenc6on my property. Ill easy save myself 4k doing it myself thanks to your help. All i need to do is buy a 80 Thousand dollar piece of equipment!!
That’s what I love to hear! A can-do attitude! 😄
This is the most Georgia video I’ve ever seen. Y’all would be so fun to hang with.
Utility lines are frequently mis-marked by radio frequency location equipment because the device basically puts you over the center of the field - often lines are run in parallel and can be picked up in the field so the center line is skewed.
We've got too much clay to pound posts in....auger and tamping for us. But that's a fine fence you got there.
This is exactly what Im looking for... What is the exact terminology I use to look for a local fence installer that can do this?
also, what is the current typical cost for installing a fence like this?
You guys need to build more fenced. These guys are great. Very entertaining videos.
Thanks! Mark and Ryan are a lot of fun to work with.
Agreed. I have a good spot in Canada you all could shoot a video doing more fence 😉
Nice looking fence.

Great looking fence and looks like a well oiled team!!
Hey, would those be 60 Penny nails?? Man we used those to nail purlins back in the 90's building pole barns... we used a framing hammer though, and we were MEN... NO wimpy nail guns!! (though we wished we had one)
Yes I believe they are
As you walk along all you gotta do is twist it when you pass the spot where you know the trench is and it will tell you where the trench is with the water, power and pot of gold
Damn, that is a really nice fence. Good job for the family and friends.
I do mainly pvc. Too bad 811 doesn’t mark cable lines lol.
I hit those with the auger all the time.
Wrap them shits right up haha.
One time I was drillin a hole and the home owner comes out wavin and screaming I’m hitting his Wi-Fi because I pulled the wire out the house and pulled his router off the shelf lol.
That’s one beast post slammer though. I have a Rhino for chain link.
Rarely am I doing this kinda fence.
17:09 I know most nail guns have safety measures preventing them from firing off a nail unless the point is pressed against something, but that lack of muzzle discipline still makes me wince.
This looks cool. Can you get away with this design in the northern climates where we typically need to get below the frost line to prevent heaving?
Watching this from England, sipping my English tea feeling accomplished that that epic piece of plant is BUILT IN ENGLAND ;-)
As a couch professional what you guys did wrong with this demonstration of this particular fence project was that you did it on the wrong property. 😏 obviously you should’ve done it on MY PROPERTY! 😂
Great video 👍🏻
GREAT JOB & strategic 3 worker placement.
Love the measuring hacks! Nawthcackalacky boy bringing the tricks..... And British engineering. Great video as usual! Thank you for the ideas as usual!
Wow, in New Hampshire we grow rocks and I don't think you could get one post in without hitting one.
That dowsing demonstration really puts the ideo* in "ideomotor effect"
Take a Hax to that root! 🤣
