I don't know where else to share this, so I'll share it here - feel free to re-use at will :) I have to say that my black Lift Arc pocket tee (which I am wearing today) has to be the highest-quality merch-type shirt that I own. It has a boatload of softness, a bit of stretch, and seems like it is going to be as durable as hell. As much as I would not normally make a big deal out of buying a $30 t-shirt, I'm glad I did. Thanks!
Beautiful hoop & spike iron work! I just saw a 100 year old hoop & spike fence being repaired on Austin Ross's channel & he mentioned that could be duplicated even today! POOF! LAS did it as if on queue! Splendid work! 👍
Consider renting a mini digger with a rock breaker attachment, Very handy for digging the holes and breaking any large rocks down. They're usually pretty reasonably priced for a day's rental. You could also use it to push the posts into the ground in a pinch.
This was just enough banter not too much. Good video, great work. It almost seems like prerusting and clear coat might be a good option so it doesn't rust too much in spots where water might pool but I could be wrong.
We would love to do more too! Will wants to make knives and swords all the time, but unfortunately not a lot of client work requires it as much as we wished it did.
They say it takes about ten years to become a true expert at something, and by that regard, we got about two more years till we're fence and railing super experts!
Spike doing manual labor is hilarious, him holding that bucket on his knees just waiting on that big load. Must get all his power from that man mop on his head. Nice work Tay.
Hopefully you are all safe with the storm coming through. I just drove from Myrtle Beach to Maryland and the rain was intense most of the way and I understand that it was worse to the west where you are. Also, Walker should always leave the banter long if there is even a hint of humor or personality. I'm sure I'm not alone in that stuff being the reason I watch all your stuff
We got a some flooding for sure, there's a video coming up soon where we had to make our way over to Arc3 in the middle of the storm. And for the banter, thank you, we try to make things informative but also fun!
I don’t know about putting fence posts through the retaining wall. Seems like the wall will shift and the fence will too. I’m no expert in either. Great looking fence!
Did they want the fence that close to the drain for the wall? I would have preferred to see it a few more inches away, on slightly higher ground, so it doesn’t drain right over the posts.
I love my hammer drill and love using it. For me, it either lets me do creative things in masonry or gives me masculine arm strength where I need it for unwieldy problems your guy muscles might consider mundane.
It's only half inch, why not cold bend it? As a hobby blacksmith, I will take any opportunity to fire up a forge. But for production work, wouldn't building a bending brace and cold bending been faster and have less cleanup for paint?

Hey fellas, if you have any questions on buried utilities, have the land owner call a week ahead. Cause if you hit it without doing that it's your fault. If you hit it and it wasn't marked and it's a utilities', it's there's. If you hit the landowners stuff, it's the landowners fault. CYA
the spears and hoops should be welded on top og the flatbar, because now it will collect water and dirt in the hole and facilitate corrosion. even tho the customer wanted a rusted patina i can't imagine they want the spear to rust off.. also should make drain holes in the squre tube posts so water can find a way out, it will always find a way in.
Digging post holes is one of the worst jobs without industrial equipment. I would much rather sift through extended Monty Python banter then plant posts.
Digging services such as 811, DigRight, Julie, etc. do not mark private lines. That means they stop at the meter or pole which are generally by the road. Private service lines are the responsibility of the property owner to locate.
Whoever whined about your banter needs to get a life. Also the few people that whine about the longer videos need to as well. Some people just like to whine.
We absolutely get where they're coming from, but unfortunately until we grow enough to make the content as viable as the client work, we're just knocking out what we can when we can. We will however probably never be able to fix our banter, we only vaguely know what ASMR is.
What a train-wreck. A two-story home with Italian villa roof and an American colonial roof on a lean to addition perched on stilts, for some reason with post modern windows and two different types of lap siding, now with traditional Victorian style hoop and spear fencing made out of steel at a cost of $1000/ln ft. Some people have more money than they have sense.
Listen, just because you can afford to pay for all your dreams, doesn't mean they all match! When I bought my house it was originally a MCM build in 61, that someone in their excellent taste, decided the interior needed to be what I can only loosely refer to as "Tuscan" styled and made it look like a cheap Olive Garden.

@@budhrseh2001most homes aren’t architect designed. And often, when they are it’s just the bare bones and the local contractor does all the rest. Frank Loyd Wright used to work that way. It’s one reason so many of his homes fell apart. I think it was for Falling /water, that he designed one of the first fluorescent tube entranceways. Looks great with the glass blocks. But they found, what the tube went, that there was no way to replace the tube without breaking the wall. There are plenty of other boners he made. So it’s not architects today. It’s architects that do t really care.
Angle grinder with no guard and no face shield. Are you feeling lucky? One guy had a broken cutoff wheel removed from his gut, right next to his spine. No bueno.
Oh man! I hope he was okay. I was at a hardware store and mentioned to my friend how expensive protective chainsaw pants were and his perfect response was "Yeah, but so are new legs!". You make an excellent point!
But we love him just the same! Having been there for it and having seen the video at least twice, I still laugh really hard when he goes "THAT'S A BIG GATE!" at 34:05
Please do not split projects into multiple videos at editing. I understand installments for multi-month projects, but dividing for the sake of dividing breaks train of thought. I much prefer getting a complete story in an hour rather than rolling my eyes at a short video's weak artificial cliffhanger. The cliffhanger puts work on viewers to search or wait for answers to project challenges. I find I stop watching creators who divide streams of thought unnecessarily.

Fence looks fantastic and fits well with the landscape. Nice work. Would be nice to see how it ages after a couple of years.

Very nice looking fence, it looks like it fits well in and around this home.
Thank you! We were happy they were happy too!
That reminds me…. I would love to have my forge back when you finish with it!❤👍
Blacksmithing 😊. Love it. Would love to see more of this on the channel.
We would love to do more too! Will wants to make knives and swords all the time, but unfortunately not a lot of client work requires it as much as we wished it did.
Very nice, no drama just competence. Ray

Great video. As usual.
Thank you, sir! Glad you enjoyed it!
That is cool. And real world stuff. I think it's interesting
Yeah, that's the secret about our channel, the real world stuff makes it so we can do the UA-cam stuff! I'm glad you like!
Note to the editor Monty Python quotes are always welcomed and enjoyed 😁

Neat looking project!
Thanks Bobby! We had fun with it!
There's nothing to it but to do it
Start with a smaller auger and end with the bigger one for your post holes. Works better. Nice vid🎉
This is an excellent tip and a good excuse to buy a smaller bit for our auger!
Good, and you may stumble on those horrible stones much quicker😀 It's a nightmare.
Most of the metal I get has a bow to it.
I don't even want to tell you about the stainless we got in last week!

Hard work digging those holes 🥵
It's hard work but someone (named Tay and Spike) had to do it!
I don’t know about putting fence posts through the retaining wall. Seems like the wall will shift and the fence will too. I’m no expert in either. Great looking fence!
Well, we did fill the voids in the retaining wall with concrete which hopefully will prevent some of that.
I’ve never seen anyone mig outside like that before. How much gas were yall using to insure coverage?
A gate that swings both ways. . . . sounds dirty!!! ;-)
You have no idea how many times we had to rephrase "on today's episode, we're putting poles in the holes! ...wait, cut that".
How did you not have the gas shield blown away? everyone I've known try MIG weld outside gave-up & used stick.
Tay's a beast on any welder but that one we got for this project was also great.
Dyk Van Dyke would've approved those accents....🤣
This is a good point! We should get him on the channel, have him give us some advice!

Yeah thankfully the homeowner had done a lot of that, but you know how it goes, after you hit a gas line once you always have the fear in ya!

👍
the square poles all had drain holes which allowed for the air to come out when we put them in concrete, allowing it to fill in the post.

Digging post holes is one of the worst jobs without industrial equipment. I would much rather sift through extended Monty Python banter then plant posts.
hahahhaaha same!
You guys don’t have “DigRight” in your area to mark utilities with flags?
I believe you can dial 811 across America for it.

why dance music
We just try to figure out the music that's going on in Spike's head most of the time and run with it.

You guys need to make more consistent video lengths. 15-20 minutes is great. If a subjects needs to be longer, split it up.
Why?
@@TheVideoWasteland I can oftentimes spare 20-30 minutes in between stuff, 40-50 minutes is a time investment.
You know you can pause it and come back to it later....
@@Jim_2571 Of course, but it's much nicer if it's a full video instead of having to think back to what happened earlier.
