In 1954, aged 8, at Howqua in rural Victoria, I was having trouble with the new #10 high tensile fencing fire. I kept over tightening it, and kept breaking the wire. Dad explained the difference between the new #10 wire, and the old #8 wire, which was much more forgiving. We used the traditional wire tighteners. Dad’s helpful advice was “slowly and cautiously tighten the wire, until it breaks. Then back it off half a turn”. Mishaps with the #10 wire include seeing a new fence crossing a gully pop 10 feet out of the ground. The first frost caused such severe contraction. Seeing fences I installed over 65 years ago brings back happy memories.
Thanks mate, these clips work great on short runs of wire like I have here on my small property. The farm I work on we have much longer runs and so use normal wire strainers. I've found that it takes 5% more effort to do a good gob as opposed to a poor job and as the fences should outlast me I always try to do a good job. Thanks for commenting. Enjoy my other videos
I'm 70 Jimmy and I have learned from others that were much older than me now and it's good to see that the old homemade things are what really work and I appreciate all of your stories and ideas they're great
G'day Dave, it works great on short runs of wire, long lengths tend to wrap too many times and overwhelm the clip. Let me know how you go. Thanks for commenting.
I bought a box of these maybe 15 years ago, they were called ‘Twitchers’ and were made in Warragul, Victoria. I still have some in the box with the winder. They are very good and easy and quick to use.
Back in the early to mid 1950s my Dad was a distributor for a thing called the "Benbow Fence tightener" that was almost identical to this. It worked very well and was inexpensive and very easy to apply. The winding tool was a speed wrench like for sockets with a "chuck" that fitted over the 180* bent part to wind up the wire. I doubt they are still around. This was western USA.
A product like this is still available here in Australia. I can't remember where I saw it and this is a copy, it works pretty well. Thanks for commenting.
It appears you're right about the Benbow having gone the way of all things. However if you Google "Benbow Fence tightener" the results include Jake's Tighteners which are identical. They're quite cheap, really. About $1.50 ea in lots of 100. Simple and elegant solution.
I've got a socket I cut out to do scroll work on cattle panels for trellises, I bet a little tweak and it would work. Well would probably need to just make a new one with a smaller socket, but the same principle.
Thanks for commenting, make sure your family let's us know how that goes. I look forward to reading the crash investigation. 😀. Please don't apply any thing you see in my other videos to your aviation maintenance. 🤣
Oh, childhood memories of making these and winding fence wire up after fixing a moose breakage. None of our wires got that old ever, the moose took care of that. For tension we used a variation without the end LV-bend and wired a rock to it. Normal seasonal range was +35C to -35C with some dips up and down - looking back it was an amazing simple as effective setup.
Hi, I've made these before from large nails but I never had them come out as well as you have. I'll follow your procedure btw the tool for using I never made but will now that I've seen yours. A Florida USA cattleman Thanks

Hey mate, thanks for commenting on the video. It's actually a copy of something I saw once somewhere so it's just for private use on my property for me. I wouldn't want to poke the copyright bear...lol.
I'm glad you liked the video and it helped. It's something i saw somewhere but i can't recall where. Thanks for commenting. I hope you like my other videos too
If there are significant temperature changes in your area, it does not matter whether there are daily or seasonal temperature changes, then using such a device in hot weather will lead to the wire breaking in winter or undergoing plastic deformation, which means the device will work for half a year. But if you use this device in the cold season, then in the summer the wire will stretch under the influence of temperature and the fence will sag. This device can be improved if the lever does not rest against the wire, but is pulled down under the action of a load. Then this device will tension the wire equally all year round, automatically adapting to the air temperature
This sounds like you are correct even though I'm not fully picturing what you describe would be the solution. Does this device exist? Can you point me to where I could see it? The original poster says some of his has been in place for several years, but then again perhaps he doesn't have a lot of difference in temperatures in different seasons?
@@aprilm9551 I don’t know if a device similar in design exists; I only described the principle by which the tension of the contact wire on the railway is maintained. The author uses the tensioned cable itself as a support to maintain tension; if a load is attached to the elongated part of the device shown in the video, the tension will be maintained even if the wire weakens.
Thanks, it's a pretty cheap solution. I've got proper wire strainers but they're no use on really short runs of wire so I sometimes use these. Thanks for commenting.

Interesting product and pleasant to watch video, especially appreciate that there's no music. A small suggestion if I may, change the name to fence wire tensioner. Most people associate strainer as a device to filter or separate.
Hi, thanks for commenting. In Australia Fencing wire tensioners are generally called strainers but I get your point. Thanks for watching. I hope you like my other videos too.
There's something about watching a man using his tools and being creative on his bench building things that makes me want to just watch the video even though I may never need what it is that they are building. Sadly, this young generation only knows how to push buttons. They would probably even get up on a horse facing the wrong way if they could even figure out how to get up on it.
Looks like a fantastic design for simplicity, cost and function. Regarding the possibility of the wire breaking due to radius of the wire on the tensioner. Wouldn't the weakening due to radius be no worse than the bend needed for almost every other method of tying off or tensioning the wire? I doubt it's an issue. Thanks for the video.
@@nicanorbadal689 possibly, but I think twisting it with two hands gives stability, try it and let us all know how you go. Thanks for commenting on this video. I hope you like my other videos too

it's one way to do the job but can't you still tighten the wire without it? or its a bad idea? i'm just asking if its the one good way or can be done other ways who knows maybe one day i would need to use that :D still useful tho
Hi, thanks for the question, in my experience simply twisting the wire it'll come undone when an animal hits it. I only use these clips on very short runs of wire. Thanks for commenting..
Хороший крючок. Только в целях безопасности, когда закручиваете, по обе стороны проволоки повесьте или тряпки, типа старых рубашек, или веревку накиньте кольцами. Не дай Бог, оборвется проволока (трос) - тряпки погасят импульс разрыва и разлета проволоки.
No mate, I don't think so, the posts closest to this section of wire aren't scorched or burnt, the other wires above and below it are also rusty but I don't know why. The wire further along is still in good nick. Thanks for commenting, I hope you like my other videos too.

I agree.. I'd rather do it properly with a set of strainers but the lengths of wire in using this on are maybe 8 or 10 metres so can't get enough stretch to tie them off. These clips are good for that kinda length but get overwhelmed by too much wire if it's a long run. They're good in a pinch. Thanks for commenting. I hope you like my other videos too

@@zen4men hi, thanks for commenting. Fencing is very satisfying, I've got a little more Fencing to do so I'll make another video soon. I hope you enjoy my other fencing videos.
@@IdeasBox In South Devon on our farm, we have stone-faced earth hedges, some hundreds of years old, and teeming with wildlife, who use the hedge as a highway. They are about 5 feet high, narrower on the top than the base, but wide enough on top for a hunter ( horse ) to use the top while jumping over. My father would repair a slide with barbed wire, but I would get stone, and do what lasts 100 years. A hedge gives cattle shelter from wind, as in the lee it is 5 degrees warmer. So I rarely use wire, but always interested in ideas! /

==== IDEA
If you made a series of jigs,
=================================
you could halve the time to make them?

Fencing is of interest -
mechanics is not really my line.
I like simple things,
and your fence wire clip is simple!
I like CommonZense!

@@zen4men hi, thanks for commenting. Fencing is very satisfying, I've got a little more Fencing to do so I'll make another video soon. I hope you enjoy my other fencing videos.

In South Devon on our farm,
we have stone-faced earth hedges,
some hundreds of years old,
and teeming with wildlife,
who use the hedge as a highway.
They are about 5 feet high,
narrower on the top than the base,
but wide enough on top
for a hunter ( horse )
to use the top while jumping over.
My father would repair a slide with barbed wire,
but I would get stone,
and do what lasts 100 years.
A hedge gives cattle shelter from wind,
as in the lee it is 5 degrees warmer.
So I rarely use wire,
but always interested in ideas!

belo trabalho

Hi, thanks for commenting. I'm in Australia, we have them here for many years, I have used them for about 10 years. Spasibo.
Awesome!
Thanks mate for the comment. I hope you like my other videos too
Spiffy! 🤠
Many Thanks !!!
Really some spare fencing wire and a fencing strainer is a lot easier. I guess you do have to buy a strainer though.
Hi, I've got proper wire strainers but there's not enough stretch in short runs of wire to tie them off so sometimes I use this clip. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks mate. It's a copy of something I saw in a magazine so I can't really take credit but it works well

У нас в Челябинске бабы на таком проводе бельё сушат, а натягивают его с помощью простой прищепки и парочки нецензурных выражений в сторону пьяного мужа, который слабо натянул трос между двумя соседними осветительными мачтами. Хотя муж не виноват - это мачты погнулись, они ж сделаны из бетона и всего в полруки обхватом.

Непоганий тенвіт і закручувалка цікава, я робив трохи іншу, а в якості матеріалу для тенвіта використовував гвіздок 120 чи 150.
