    Wow, probably the best fence video on youtube

    I feel like I’ve watched every fence video on youtube and finally found one that showed the process in an understandable way… great work!

      Totally agree. He explains the “why” which so many people don't do in “how-to” videos.

      Red Brand won't say if the bottom wire should be on the ground where it will corrode.

    As someone who has watched a thousand how-to videos on youtube, this one is perfect. All the info needed without a lot of useless jib-jab and wasted camera time as you spend two minutes drilling a hole or explaining what tools will be needed to complete the job, etc.
    When you're finished covering all the farming stuff, please consider doing a how-to video on how to do a how-to video.

      Hi John, lol! Yep, I got tired of the same thing. But when I watch car repair or appliance repair videos they're straight to the point. I don't care for long shots of pretty scenery; I can watch National Geographic for that.

    This was, hands down, the best fence video I have seen. Especially since I am doing my fence mostly alone and without a tractor. Thanks much for the outstanding video!

    I've taught for 40 years. I've also used video a lot in my presentations. You have a great ability to narrow down what's important and make your presentation precise. Other DIY videos guys on UA-cam make you watch as they hammer in the third nail. You video the first occurrence of each step then assume that your learner is smart enough to duplicate that as many times as necessary also using slip time to show the passage of time to the completion of that task. Very well done and helpful. As a suggestion, you might want to mention the names of all of your tools and fittings, eg. "crimping ferrels" for the tension wire, so DYI dummies like me will know what to ask for when we go to Tractor Supply or Home Depot :).

    Great video! We put up a bunch of woven no climb fencing last year the same way you showed (except we used a skid steer to attach the come along)... It worked great, but this year we purchased a 3pt fence stretcher to hopefully save time and make it a little easier... Haven't had time to try it yet but I'm looking forward to it.
