Holy cats, that's impressive! As another commenter remarked, that's definitely a work of art. Wonderful presentation and explanation. I remember Almonzo from that previous video; we find that he's well-spoken as well as being a an artist at his craft. Thanks for the great content!
Dan my man… that’s a right impressive fence. Thars not an inch of Bob-whar in sight. I like the idear of using those steel rod thingys for fencing. It’ll keep the hosses and bovines from getting scarred up. And, scraping your Muck boots against it will keep them water proof. But, it does raise a question for us Ozark fencers… How do we weld them to our trademark Osage Orange posts? Is there a welding rod for sticking steel to wood? Or, do they make some kind of nail on clip or staple for attaching them? I mean, we are as open minded as you’d expect. We can adopt new ideas as well as anyone… shoot fire, just last year I upgraded from a brace and bit to a cordless drill for boring gate hinge pins! But, if the new fangled ideal doesn’t meet our standards… well bud, we don’t adapt! One thing we know is that there is no better post than Osage Orange… and iffen we’re gonna give up our beloved Bob-whar we need to know how to affix the rods to them. So please advise me of a good danged way of making this meet our standards! PS: them boys sure know how to throw up a purdy fence! Thanx for sharing.
When working with Osage Orange it's best to skip the steel and go right for pine branches. These can be "welded" onto your posts with an adequate amount of chewing gum, duct tape, and baling twine. 👍🏻😆
i dont understand why he makes it seem like one guy did all that work. i would feel as the owner of SWI he would talk more about the workers and team of guys who did that insane amount of work. that has to be a multi-million dollar fence job.
7 to start, 4 to finish. You're absolutely right, it takes a team and everybody did amazing. Almonzo's the foreman, so he's the one that has to answer for the job and make sure it gets done right.
FANTASTIC, IMPRESSIVE, INCREDIBLE AND OTHER BIG WORDS CAN'T DESCRIBE HOW PRO THIS IS!!!!

You’ve gone to a lot of effort for no likes.
@@Tom-hl7wc yeah… I enjoy trying to edubicate Dan about hillbilly alternatives! •grin•

@@SWiFence thanks… but, I think I’ll use cedar… they last longer and don’t get pine pitch all over our white cows!
With everything welded solid, what is in the fence to allow for expansion and contraction of the steel?
Absolutely nothing we had a meeting about it and they wouldn't budge on that part of thier spec
Excellent job.!! What is the final cost pero feel?

This should quell any Bigfoot doubters! Dang, he's a big dude.
He is.
VERY IMPRESSIVE!
Sweet project
My dad threw string line away over 45 years ago. He learned fast got tired of the wind.
Your dad is smart. 👍🏻
What does ‘whiteout spec’ mean?
WYDOT. Wyoming Department of Transportation
@@SWiFence LOL, I see. Thanks. Thought it was a snow thing.
We could use your talents down on the Mexico border!!
I bet a nice big juicy government grant paid for this facility. Nice work!
I think vinyl fencing would have been better
😆
Yes sirree Bob! That steel won’t budge an inch when charged by a raging bull. Vinyl will leave a lot less bruises!
PETA would agree a hunnert percent!
My string stays up and the fence stays on line at all times, I take it down when I'm done
how many SWI employees on this job?

Always use a starting measurement from everything else to run off, never use different points.
That must cost quite a bit 😮
For sure
I just drove through Wyoming. I can see why you guys don’t use strings. It would be impossible to use there. Way too windy
All that fence and welding and steel and not a drop of paint. I have seen rust do terrible things to metal over time. Looks good now, but later?
👌👍💪
I would have got paid up front this job would suck!
With money anything is achievable…..
Thanks for the welding credits Dan🥲
