  • This really is probably the best method I’ve ever come across and most certainly the cheapest way to tighten fence.

    Man, i just got into your videos.

    Daily goal is to have learned something new.
    No matter how miniscule.
    I tell kids all the time that.
    I lost one of my best friends
    My grandpal.
    and he knew all these little tricks. Ive picked up or forgotten thru our 26 yrs.
    I was always his help and the past few year's. Ive been needing his.
    Especially trying my hand on the land myself.
    Prayers man.

    I wish I had one of those, but I don't. I only have a Goldenrod fence stretcher. I'm going to see if I can get it work with that. Granted, there may not be as much room above the wire, but I'm hoping I can get it to work somehow in the smaller space above the wire by turning the pliers nearly parallel with the fence instead of perpendicular like this. Thank you and Good luck to you and your family.

    Looks like that old design is much better than the new ones like I have - the wire tends to slip out of the jaws when you are tightening it.

    Good job........ I use several different methods and different tools. Depends mainly on which truck I am in when I find wire to work on. Just strung a full plus 1/4 mile of brand new post and H Braces and corner braces with SIX STRAINS of wire. I used four rolls of 15.5 gauge and two rolls of 12.5 gauge. Started those runs eight inches off the ground and eight inches between each of the first four strains then to 9 inches then 12 inches at the top. This is bran new perimeter fence and the neighbor has dogs and he does not care to pen them up and the cows were here first. Praying for you and your family for Gods will to be done and comfort from the Comforter if needed. If you need anything, let us know. Will be glad to do whatever we can do.

    One thing to learn.......On using steal fence post driver ........ never use them with handles on them. They are short....and if they pop off the top of the post.....your fingers could be in jeopardy !!!! Use the same pipe size....about 2 inch inside diameter. Weld one end shut. Primary...... make the driver pipe longer !!!! Nothing less then 3 feet. You can always cut it shorter ! That way it wont pop off the post...and theres no need for handles because you have more area of travel to hit with.....creating for force ! With handles.....its a good way to amputate fingers ! I know...... cut those in pieces !
