That was a good how too
How to ride a cow! KID!
Not really. It's built incorrect. Wire is backwards.
that wire was installed backwards, that front post needs to be braced from the corner, so it wont want to pull away from the horizontal brace.
Huh? I thought the corner post gets tighten by the top corner, to balance out the tension??
Never mind, I checked my brace post 😅 and now that I looked at it. It does make sense, keeping the bracing post ain't gonna pull away from the post
Obviously backwards.
9:01 As jmmtcidc said below, the guy wire should go to from the bottom of the corner or the end post to the top of the adjacent post. I built fences for 35 years including many miles of farm fence. The guy wire at 3:19 is installed correctly.
I agree, he has it backwards.
The brace is built incorrectly. In the configuration shown, the brace wire is pulling in the same direction as the fence wires. The brace wire should run from the bottom of the corner post to the top of the second post.
Is that right?
.@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Yeah. Unfortunately you have it backwards in the video. Oops/
it was doing my head in to
I noticed that too. Maybe y’all just got a little mixed up. :)
Te is backwards.
FYI FOLKS....IF YOU'RE CONSIDERING GETTING A TSHIRT NOW IS THE TIME....ONLY 1 DAY LEFT OF THE T-SHIRT SALES..SO IT'S TIME TO JUMP ON IT IF YOU WANT A SHIRT OR TWO.....THANKS FOR HELPING SUPPORT A VETERAN FARMER!!✌
that three pin support for the wire to protect the post is a brilliant idea thank you.
You are very welcome
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Fencing how-to's are the one thing lacking from all the homestead channels. Appreciate the effort you're putting in this to break it down so it's easy to understand :)
Yessir!
Josh love what you're doing here on you tube and even more the obvious fact that you're already out there helping your local neighbors! We nwed much more of this in the world today! Blessings friend!
Y'all look like brothers
Glad to see somebody that knows how to build H braces properly...correct height, correct width and most importantly uses pins and ratchet strainers...oh, and does NOT use the totally ineffective crossed brace wires...and the folks that have been taught to use them will argue til the cows come home. I just ask them to check the brace wires after you're done and see if both of them are still tight - not possible....well, not possible if your fence is tight. I only use double H braces like in the video for long pulls, anything less than 75% of a roll I use single H and I've never had an issue. I did stop using the square drive ratchet strainers (that only turn from one side) and opted for the strainers that you use a specific tool made to adjust them - the tool contact is on both ends of the hub/spool so it puts even torque on the axle of the hub which keeps it from 1. breaking 2. trying to spin around as you tension the wire. I highly recommend a Pajik fence stretcher...no more bolting together 2x4's and wasting 8-10 feet of wire per pull, and they are quick - less than 2 minutes from attaching to pulling and only waste 1-2 feet of wire. Very informative video Josh. And your mini me friend knows his fencing. Good Job to the both of you.
Brian is so informational for a novice trying to fence her own 13 acres!
That's going to be a great fence. It's great to see people out helping others. Hayden gives a good woooo!
Thanks Ron....always look forward to reading your comments
Thanks for sharing! I wish this was here to view 15 years ago when we did our fence. One thing I learned the hard way was the brace pins. Hot dipped galvanized brace pins will last way longer than rebar. It’s a pain to replace later when they rust through and the field is full of cattle. 👍🏻
Man...rebar rusting through...sounds crazy....different climates I guess
Wow man that's cool that young man has his own channel and encourages other kids to be productive and learn the sport of the outdoors. They are the future of our sport
So, you do have a twin brother.
Wooooooooo...!
Good to see a young man doing good things.
Really enjoyed the education of these techniques obviously well-thought out. 👍🏽Putting up fencing is a lot of work, and you've got to ask yourself how many times you want to do it, how many patch jobs, and how much material do you want to have to buy?! I'd rather do it right for the long-haul, and not fuss so much.
Thanks Slyfysh
If that's a corner, you put the wire opposite of how it should go. it should go low at the corner post and high on the line post. FYI
For that, I just use 2 eye bolts, a piece of all thread, and 2 long nuts. I put the all thread in the center, the long nuts on either side, and the eye bolts in the nuts. Hook the wire on the eye bolts and use a open end wrench to tighten the wire.
The top part of the brace I actually agreed with the rebar.
You should look into the gripple brace system. Great price for what you get. I am really happy the way you can go back and tighten while wire still in place. I would share a pic of my braces for you just not sure how, so look into them they are great
Enjoyed the video, and meeting the young man you featured ! Thanks so much for sharing !
Your buddy does a good job on the corner bracing. We built a bit of barbed wire fence on a ranch and you want good solid corners to stand up to the tension. Good job on the teen age vlogger.
i use twist sticks for pulling the corners, ends. once done its done.
In Australia we call these braces stays and often the corner post of a stay is heavier and of a larger dimametre than all the other posts also we would generally use a native hard wood eucoliptus post for that corner about ten inch diametre
Cool...interesting information

Huntin fishin & lovin every day.
If thats an outside corner then you ran your tension wire wrong way
Happy Easter buddy!! And all viewers too!!
That rebar would be easier that the sawing and chiseling we did and barbed wire with a stick to tention the corners. Good stuff. Every build a rock jack? All the best!
Hi..... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
Good pointers for bracing corners. Thanks!
Ordered two $100 truck and one support vet farmers t shirt. Appreciate what you are trying to do with your channel.
Thanks Patron!
Good for Hayden!!
Just noticed your from n.c I SUPPORT MY N.C UA-camR👍👍😊
Thanks
I need to put up fencing. This will be a great help. Thanks.
That rebar trick in super cool. I'll even check out Hayden.
They make a special tool to use on the ratchet hooks on both side that way the ratchet doesn’t twist in your hand.😎
brace wire they showed at the end was backwords to
Great vid! Thanks and looking forward to next one!
Wish you would show us your version of concert set post. Drivers are expensive. Nice to see a Real Red Tractor
Good kid.
My son fell in love with Kendall Gray who has a channel very popular good kid, great idea to promote that young man there is a huge need for our young people to develop a life other than looking at a screen, heck adults too
Awesome!!👍 Helpful info. THANKS FOR SHARING .😊
I have no talent.
I am working toward a healthier lifestyle, and lost 27 lbs since September 2017 to Now. That's it. lol
I was hoping you'd show us the horse, awe.
You Go Hayden! You Can Do It!
Lore Lynn keep on going! Don’t ever give up!
Ben Aschenbrener Tyvm. I will not. I really appreciate the support.
Lore Lynn anytime :)
Thank you so much for making this video. This was exactly what I needed!
Your tension wire is backwards. It's supposed to be at the bottom of the corner post.
Thanks for the input brotha...not my fencing job....but stay tuned on the channel...we'll start our fencing project very soon....show ya how to do it right!
I was concerned with the diagonal as well. The brace post is supposed to keep the corner from moving toward the tension of the line fence. So something has to pull the top of the brace toward the corner so the horizontal post keeps the corner up. I realize it’s not your fence.
With widely available Osage Orange (hedge) in the western Ozarks, that is what we used for all fencing except where it was too rocky to auger holes, and we drove metal through the sandstone then. Decent hedge posts can last 50 years. I’m replacing one stretch of a bit over 500 yards in a project now, and I think that fence is nearly 60 years old. It probably is about 20 past due to replace.
Our corner braces were a little bigger than line posts, maybe 5-6”, and corners were 8-10”, with a 3-4” horizontal between them. We set and tamped the corner, augered the hole for the brace, then assembled the brace without filling and tamping it. That way, we didn’t need the second rebar piece any longer than the first one, and we didn’t have to auger the hole clear through the brace. Hedge was very hard to drill through with a brace and bit back before portable tools. We placed the horizontal about halfway up and ran 9 ga tension wire loops both directions. We didn’t have those ratchet tensioners, so just took a short stick and twisted the wire loop until the brace was a rigid unit. Then we filled and tamped the brace post.
I've built a ton of fence and he is doing it perfect great job
Thanks
Josh don't forget the dummy post to stretch the wire off of
Thanks...I may have to look that one up brotha
Stoney Ridge Farmer your welcome. Red brand wire has great videos too i think they might have some info on a dummy post. God bless brother.
You and your neighbor look like brothers!
lol...probably cousins from distant relatives lol
I am 12 and I fix lawn mowers and mow lawns
I'm fourteen and I mod and offroad lawn and garden tractors. Check out atltf.com to check me and some friends out.
Your Neighbor looks like you
Rebar should not be used with pressure treated wood. The moisture in the wood will rust then out. You should only use galvanized pins, just like framers need to use galvanized nails on the sill plate because it is treated wood.
Great video, thanks for introducing me to Hayden. I subscribed to his channel also
Right on...he's a smart kid...hope he sticks with the youtube thing!
Nice video, i don't know how you can tell each othere apart.
we have matching beards eh? lol
Thanks guys, learnt some deadly tips
Very informative. Good young man.
Is he your mini me 😂🤣😂😂
They got a dragon on that farm! 😆 🤣
Good Video and I got Hayden clicked
do you put that diagonal wire at the nine minute mark backwards just for demonstration purposes? cuz its backasswards
I saw it was backwards and only watched to see why, but?
Happy Easter I braced myself b4 I watched this vlog Feel guilty sitten down to Easter ham dinner with that intro LOL
I’m 13 and I drive hunt and fish
Sweet!
I feel that you hooked up the wire backwards
cool vid and Happy Easter to you and Mrs
Thanks David
That horse must be related to your rooster.
You guys look like twins.
Happy Easter
Man Josh.....you guys could almost be brothers.So ....I will keep asking about your guitar set up.....You can do a vlog on that sometime.Anyway.....your neighbor and his son seems cool.Happy Easter and tell that kid......don't shoot the Easter Bunny.........118 here Josh.........Wooooo
Holy twins Batman
Why no staples and reinforcement on the top wire? Or did you just not show it?
Enjoyed the video. Fence bracing is a subject of interest to me. Thanks for sharing.
Hope you subscribed...we're about to build around 5 miles of fence here on the farm!! OMG!!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I have been subscribed for a couple of month. Enjoy the videos.
Hello from Taylorsville NC
Hey!
(Mike) Happy Easter
they put the wire on backwords
thanks Ronnie...I was just a helper
Glad to see kids like that btw where did y'all get the hand held wire cutters with the yellow handle?
Here is a link to a similar one on Amazon: amzn.to/2H3IplV
Stoney Ridge Farmer thank you sir
Any concerns with the tensioner with the sharp bits being on the inside of the fence with the animals? We have horses and are concerned about them scratching themselves if we use this method. Thx!
Happy Easter.
Great video man! God bless
U guys look exactly the same
What y’all look like twins
Do the fence posts need cemented in the ground?
no....typically posts are driven and no concrete is needed. Dig and tamp/concrete or drive and no concrete. Honestly digging and putting concrete in a post hole is a pretty antiquated way of building ag fencing....check out some of our other fence vids....I've go a playlist with about 100 videos
I noticed in the video after show the bigger picture they had to brace wire the wrong way
To bad those treated post will be rotted in about 5 years. And your brace is to hi. That's city farmers for ya
Shane.....some folks will just tear apart anything anyone does brotha....I really don't understand it......is the internet just somewhere that you go to rip someone apart?
You and I both know those post will be in the ground for 20 or more years....and the bracing is just fine......it's not my bracing...and I may have done it a bit differently.
We take you somewhere to show you something and you rip it apart....why? "City Farmers" you say....well...why is it that manners go out the door when you're on the internet?? It doesn't make you look better or smarter....why don't you educate us...teach all of us and give advice instead of smearing rudeness...if you're a country boy...then I'm sure you were taught manners
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I appreciate your comment. He is right though brace post is too high, should be about 2/3 of way up from bottom. Also if those posts are treated pine they will last a long time, maybe 20 years...but i would not set them in concrete. Reason for that is it will cause water to pool near the base and the wood will rot over time. I only use concrete to set fiberglass posts for my electric fences and I used treated southern pine for woven wire fences
The brace wires are installed backwards
Am I missing something, or is the tensioned wire at 8:33 running the wrong direction? Shouldn't it be running from the top of the brace post back to the bottom of the corner post?
They look the same😲!!!!
All Haden needs now is a beard !
lol
At 9:05 the brace wire is backwards
Okay, not trying to be critical here, but... isn’t that brace wire installed incorrectly @ 8:26 ? It’s just opposite of how you described the way it should be. The way he did it the tension is going the wrong way! Or am I drunk? Lol, he explained it all at 2:48
This is tje best
You two look like twins
LOL My brotha from anotha motha
Great video…. Questions: are those brace posts set 4’ in the ground and if so is concrete needed to secure them? What is the diameter of the posts? Thank you.
What size fence posts do you use?
Hey Josh, great video! Can you post a link to the crimp Ferrules and size of wire?
use strainrite crimp sleeves.... best source for wire and crimps farmfencesolutions.com
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer you are the man! Keep doing what you are doing great content!
Happy resurrection day for the lord our savior Jesus arose for the tomb
How far apart do you put your fence post? And how often to you do bracing in a long run?
I can hardly believe it, you guys are installing those brace cables backwards. The tighter you stretch your fence wires the looser that brace cable will get. They to angle the opposite way.
They need to angle the opposite way.
Nice idea from your neighbor but not really necessary on the tension wire, if you dug 3 foot holes and put two bags of concrete the braces are not going anywhere! Trust me I do this for a living
Thanks for the input
Are you stringing a wire on-top of the page wire?
Your description for t-shirts is missing the "r" lol
lol just fixed thanks buddy that was pretty funny
