DANNY, wish more people would take the time to do it right then just just throw it up and call it good enough,, love the clean fence rows,, have a blessed and safe day
I always used a come-a-long, sometimes hooked to a truck and sometimes to another tree.. Never had a tractor then, but it works regardless.. Thanks for the fond (now) memories to day Danny..
I’ve done that many times but we usually dig a hole under the 2x4s when we get it tight and let them drop into the hole to keep maximum tension on the wire.
Get yourself a couple lengths of 3/8" thick angle iron, IT's not as nice as interlocking U channel, but you won't have to fab anything. Armed with that you can really tension your fencing
Hey Deep South! Your videos are very informative. I read in a comment that your T post are 15’ apart. Would this work on a slope and for a goat fence that has 4”x4” squares?
Why was the fence on the inside of the t posts but outside of the corner posts? Which side will the animals be? Inside that 90 or outside where the cameraman and tractor were? Thanks!
A man can work independently in this world, without depending on another, as long as he has an appliance dolly and a come-along, and the support of a wife.........
I have fencing I have to put up to and I have to make a pig pen for a couple pigs what is the minimum size for that you would put up for pigs thank you for your wisdom and your help God bless you
Good Idea! Especially if you can start breeding your own :) It's like chicken math. We have one growing for bacon/pork and two for breeding for the first time. Won't always be able to go and buy piglets.
Looks like you stapled on the corner and kept the fence running without cutting and tying it off. I see where so many recommend tying it off at each corner but I was planning to staple mine and keep it running. Did you have any problems doing yours this way?
Come along is a MUST HAVE tool for a homestead. I've used the same method to remove small trees, pulling then down and cutting the roots.

You know... for old guy, with various ailments.... you get more work done than most young healthy people. Great job.
Great job Danny! No better way to stretch a fence than with come alongs. Even had to use them a time or two to help deliver a calf.

Tractors are SO versatile! But they can’t do everything! 😉 Things are looking SO GOOD! Glad to see so many new accomplishments there. Great video! 😊
Excellent video. Clearly shows every step. Consice to the point.
The place is really shaping up.
Have a great Sabbath!!!
Shabbat Shalom
s fetterly Shalom my friend
Great video. My father in law was from Brooklyn, MS. I've been through Wiggns several times myself. Either work or visiting.

Thanks for the lesson! Hopefully we will be able to put it to good use this Summer. :)

That's really interesting Danny. Those old folks were no slouches when it came to inventing something to make their work a little easier were they?
Way smart idea on how to get the fence tightened up
You're doing an awesome job
I use this same method to tighten the new fence I’m putting up.
Thanks for sharing different methods.
Excellent video
You’re very resourceful.
Instead of easing off tension to get that end of the fence lower, I would've tried digging in the dirt a couple of inches to lower the 2x4s.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Thanks!
Thanks you for this
Awesome Job!
That is one nice fence!
Great job
Good job!
Great Video God Bless!

Awesome saying!
Nice.
Excellent tutorial. How much I owe you?

God bless you
Keith S For 2 pigs i would not build less than a 32 x 32. Thanks
Deep South Homestead thank you very much I'll probably go a little bigger than that

It's cominalong lol 😉😂
Finished and goats are in there. Video tomorrow. THanks Guys

I haven't had any problems with mine.
Thanks!
How do you move and hook the fence to the Tposts with it being so taught?
It gives just enough to put it where I need it.
Seems like there is no place where people are not encroaching on ones privacy.
Is that cattle fence your putting up?
Yes, field fencing
How far apart do you put the T-posts?
Diane Bailey They are 15 ft apart. Thanks
Danny did you get your tractor fixed
david gunter No i traded it in on a larger model The XR 3135. Thanks
