Goldenrod Wire Fence Stretcher Model 400

From www.dutton-lainson.com
"For many farmers, the word "Goldenrod" is interchangeable with "fence stretcher," as multiple generations have relied on these versatile and dependable tools to help them quickly stretch, splice, staple, raise, and draw down fencing wire.
Stretch wire:
Wire stretching is an easy task when you position one of the stretcher's hooks on a post and the other to draw the wire to the post. The hook will remain fast to the smallest post or the largest tree until released.
Splice wire:
The tool's hooks take up slack from both ends of the wire and hold them in place, so both of your hands are free to make a splice. The ends are held firmly in place until the tension is released.
Staple wire:
The stretcher holds the wire tightly in place around a fence post so it can be stapled.
Raise wire:
Position the stationary hook of the tool on top of a fence post to raise wire fencing over hills or other obstructions.
Draw down wire:
The stretcher can be used for drawing wire down to a "deadman" as when stretching fence over wash cuts, draws, creeks, etc.
Features include:
Makes fence repairs easier
Reliable, proven design
Ideal for quickly tightening and stretching any wire fence
For high tensile, barbed, and smooth wire
Hardened guides and clamps grip wire firmly over a large area for superior clamping
Clamp teeth are sharp enough to firmly grip wire, but not so sharp that they damage it
Hardened rivets at the load bearing pivots (handle and pawl areas) last longer
Strong, one piece handle
Ergonomic rounded edges on handle for more comfortable operation
What's the difference between Goldenrod fence stretcher-splicer models?
The standard model 400 has been around since the 1970s. Several design improvements have been made along the way, but the concept is the same. The stationary hook holds the wire in place while the ratcheting traveler hook "climbs" the bar. To accomplish this, the traveler must pivot to allow the stationary hook to engage, and the release is abrupt. The special cast guides will hold high tensile and standard wire, whether smooth or barbed.
Model 405 is identical to the 400, except for one additional feature- a controlled release holding ratchet, which allows for a more gradual release of tension that reduces line breakage.
The 415 Hired Hand® fence stretcher-splicer allows you to pull up an unlimited amount of slack in the wire while maintaining tension with a continual clamping motion. When the ratcheting traveler hook is released in order to get another "bite" of wire, the extra stationary hook holds the wire tight and securely. Whereas the 400 and 405 tools can stretch a few feet without having to be secured, model 415 is limitless."

Fencing repairing or installing new is a Hard Job ! But with the right tools it makes the difference in the end results
Thanks for sharing 👍
Cool video - I have little or no need for the tool but liked learning about it and will keep it in mind if I run across the opportunity to use it. Saved the link in Amazon for future. Thanks and great channel!
Thank you!
So happy I found your channel, I have the Kubota B2601 and your tip on how to turn the PTO will save me countless cuss words as I used to keep bumping the PTO to try and get it in position so I could attach my tiller.
Thanks for being here!
I carry a roll of wire of the same gauge to get more purchase further from the splice.
Good Evening Sir Ed, You Have Made An OUTSTANDING Informative video and Be Well And Drink Plenty of water 🙏😇👌Cheers 🍻
As always, David, you are too kind!
Neat tool. The last time I stretched fence like that I sandwiched it between two 2x4s screwed together, and pulled with a come-along attached to the tractor. It was a cheap solution since I had all those things “laying around”.
I still have my 2x4’s that are bolted together with carriage bolts. 👍
It’s absolutely insane that the projects I find myself getting into are the videos my favorite content creators are making ! Thanks again MCG!
That is awesome! Thanks for watching!
I’m in need of a 2 hook model, to assist, buttoning my trousers!
🤣🤣🤣
The fence pliers holding the staples when you drive it in is something I didn’t know. That I will put in my mind for later. Good info.
I just learned it recently too!
Ed. I have to say that when I first saw that on your hat i thought you had been fly fishing and forgot to take that hook out of your hat. Then I realized it was a microphone
🤣🤣🤣
Once you've tightened and refastened the fence to the posts and tightened the wire as you've done, you can take the remaining sag out of the fence between posts by using your fencing pliers to put "Z" bends in the horizontal wires of a vertical row, or more than one vertical row, if necessary. It has worked well for me until another tree lands on the fence. 😀
Well that's a very functional tool! Now it'd be even better if I had fencing! 😊 Thanks for sharing, and a nice😊 fix of the fence. Any issues with the donkey this time?
😂❤
Haha! No he was nowhere around today.
Update on wildflower planting?
IMHO that thing needs 3 hands to operate it - so clumsy and awkward
