.. 12:50 .. Final Costs Breakdown ..
Best breakdown for a fan-damn-tastic fence! I agree, the corner post set up makes the entire fence---well, that and the fact that you electrified the whole shebang. But what really made this video shine was the cuteness that are you two. Thanks for reminding me that that is still possible between couples. . . .some of us weren't that discerning or lucky.
Aww thanks so much :) That means a lot to us :)
WOW!!! Y'ALL DID A FANTASTIC JOB! Love the way it looks and having a woman who worked hard along side you is so awesome! God bless you both and thank you for sharing this with us..🙏🙏👍👍
Great job guys. And I must say I 💕 the cuteness between the two of you. Many more happy days between both of you.
My major project for 2022 is two 4 acre fenced pasture areas..... you all gave me some good ideas.
Mama looks like a teenager, in a good way! Wow, what genes
I appreciate the two of you so very much. Seriously. THANK YOU!!
All I want in life is to find a woman who looks at me like she looks at him.
BRAVO to a great fencing Cost Breakdown!!! Using HighTensile Electric Fencing, I totally dislike barbed wiring for fencing. WHY? because if just one of the cattle decided to jump the fence for what ever reason on the barbs you will find hair and most likely the jumping animal was scratched and cut by the barbs. Yes a 4'-5' high fence can be jumped by cattle. The black painted wood corner posts design really looked nice and gave it a finished look. Nice Job Tiny Shiny Home Family!!! for some of the family it was a SHOCKING good time!!!
That’s amazing!
Great job guys! Turned out great 👍
I've bought 1400 acres of land this year and have wondered the costs of certain must needs. This video truly helped. Instant subscribe!
That is a lot of acres!!! Thanks for the kind words, we’re learning it all right along with you 😁
Wow that’s a lot! What a dream 😍
What you gon do with all that land?
@@pubsway7087 36.6 of it is for my dream cabin getaway for the family, and for my familie's generations to come... The rest is for if SHTF. Right in pristine hunting land.
Great breakdown
Great breakdown guys, as always great video. The fence looks awesome.
Thanks sir! We couldn't have done it without you!
I love you guys. I watched your airstream reno... I'll be doing a shuttle bus soon... I love my little homestead & when they introduced you. I got so excited... I'm a big fan . And by the way I'm a MEGA-SNEEZER TOO.
WHEN I SNEEZE I FOLLOW IT WITH " NO WHIMPY SNEEZES HERE"
Good job guys
I love you guys you look cool together, it was really helpful.
Love Moses and Polly
Love you guys!
Can't wait to see the next project get started. I'll be even more excited when you get to your living quarters. I sorta envision something like what another family (can't remember their channel name right now) did, with separate earthbag structures for the older kids.
❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎
Thanks for following along with our journey. Very excited to start building!
Awesome job!
Hey thanks!!
Well I liked your explanation and you saved a ton of money. I just bought a house in NC and I want to put a 200 ft, 4 ft high chain link in with 2--12 ft gates and wait for it. Estimate $3600 to $3800. Unfortunately my health won't allow me to do it myself even though I know how and have all the equipment except the auger.
Hey Patrick We Can definitely help you out if your still interested!
Beautiful idea to paint the post black
Great information.... and I love that you coated the poles with asphalt emulsion... how brilliant was that?....
I won't be putting poles in the ground without coating them first.. it makes far too much common sense.
Excellent, Ave $2.00 per linear feet
Thanks for breakdown. I'm looking at fencing with deer and snake fence for perimeter. But I want high tensile fence for certain projects inside where some animals will live. This is great information. It give me an idea of cost. Thanks for sharing 🤗
You’re welcome!
Beautiful family congratulations
Although you had all those strange corners and extra bends, in the end you may end up with an advantage because the odd shape of your lot and having to bend the fence around will later on give you natural pre-made partitioning areas that you can later section out easier.
I'm very curious what you will put in the fence. Are you doing live stock? Or growing a future orchard? Or both? It seems like a very fun project.
Can you make a video on how to modify or add a paddock after the fact? Great video! Super cute couple!😊
Awesome couples
Smart with the asphalt emulsion
I love how they look at each other! 💕💕💕💕it’s so adorable ! #relationshipgoals
For anyone else out there about to get a DeWalt circular saw, I highly recommend springing for the 60v version. The 20v version of their circular saw is decent for cutting plywood, but not so great at cutting anything up to it's 2.5 inch capability, unless you are able to cut very very straight. My 20v binds often unless I'm running it along a straight edge.
Also, being invested in the 60v system makes their electric chainsaw that much more appealing if you're in the market for one of those too.
You’re a beautiful couple
I have 5 acres one side is fenced and the back is a cliff so I got 2 sides to think about . Thank you for sharing
How many hours per person? Thanks, great video.
Very Nice! That Cost too Value, well it'll probably last a Lifetime or two? Other than replacement stuff for the Electric. Looks really good with Black Post, I'll be doing Steel Corners only because I'm a seasoned Welder, and I already have the Steel and Tools.. Good Job! 😎
Thanks sir!!
watching you build your fence has convinced me to try build my next paddock of about 10 acres in the same way but only 6 strands to keep my jersey bull in (he is kinda pushy) . Great job on the fence
That’s great! Let us know how it goes!
This is a super informative video and was super helpful. As I'm watching the video, I'm thinking to myself 'hmmmm this looks like AZ' duh! I guess I should pay attention to hashtags lol. Anyhoot, we have 8 acres up in Strawberry and I'm super not cool with co-existing with some of the wildlife. So question... bears and mountain lions... do you have any experience dealing with trying to keep them out and if so, do tell. I subbed ya' and am going to go check out your other videos, when I log in to my other account I'll sub from that too. =) FYI we are still stuck living in the West Valley for now, but not for much longer, we have outgrown our mini urban homestead and it's time to get outta' dodge. Peace and prospering to you.
You are such a lovely couple
A beautiful fence and under budget too! Win - Win 🏆
I'm a British expat living in Mongolia with my Mongolian wife. Just us and cats. My fence by comparison is rather ghetto. It's 650 linear feet and only 3 sided because it's on a mountain side and natural barriers exist (rocky hill) on the 4th side. My crew and I bought used rebar and plastic covered steel wire. My welder guy added 2 nuts onto each rebar stake to thread the wire through. There are cattle that graze on our land but we don't mind. It keeps the wild grasses down and we get free dung for fuel and compost. Cost was about 50 cents a linear foot with labour for the small crew of 2. It's more of a fence to let people know they should respect the property lines. It doesn't actually prevent anybody coming up, if they want to.
We have about 2 acres but there's millions of acres of common land around us, especially above us on the mountains. We are building a yurt compound on this virgin land. So we're learning and experimenting as we go.
I don't recall you mentioning why every strand is electrified or even the necessity of 9 strands! lol might stress me out to think of what specific critters you need to watch out for! lol I am used to cattle being trained to one wire also sheep to one wire and pigs to one wire each a bit different in height and "trained" being the operative word. What "wild" animals are you needing to keep at bay?
So the way this electric fence works, you have to touch a hot and ground line to be shocked. The top lines are spaced further apart for large animals like cows, and the lower lines are much closer together to keep out predators. Out here in the high desert in SE Arizona we have wild pigs, coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, and even possibly bears. So a lot of potential threats at all sizes and thus the 9 strands. If you just wanted to keep out cows, you need a minimum of 5 strands here in AZ for the ranchers to be held accountable for any damages. Remember, we're in an open range state so it's our responsibility to keep the cattle out, not for the ranchers to keep them in. It's kind of backwards :)
Arizona right of passage.

I have To say my friend you are a rich and bless man to have a Woman who loves and works side-by-side with you it’s a great example of what God word calls your help mate. God bless you both.
I have a 5acre in Rio Vista tx it's rectangular and I was getting quotes of 85,000 and am just like wtfn. And still lookng
Cool video thanks for sharing as much as you guys are but where I live using the wooden posts wouldn't be practical at all or safe really because I live in a high fire area here in California with a lot of dry weeds basically so I would definitely recommend anyone using steel posts over wooden posts to help make your fence last longer in the event of fires but either way cool video.
In the case of a true wildfire your fence posts would be the last thing to worry about.
@@TinyShinyHome compared to your own self or your home I agree but your posts would burn really easily being wood and you would have to replace them even with a small fire compared to if you used metal or something that didn't burn so easily.
I put in sprinklers around the house (including two run to the roof) that has an emergency turn on and also a heat sensor. That is connected to two 20.000 gallon water tanks that auto fill from a well.
So, fire comes close and the sprinkler system is triggered and the house (from the roof down) is hit with water.
Hasn’t been tested yet by a wildfire.
I wonder how many solar wire fence chargers you would need to run all this
One.
You guys are the cutest couple ever.
Awe. Thanks. I like him:)
So how many man hours do you reckon? Just a rough, ball-park number?
No idea we did this like 3 years ago 😂
@@TinyShinyHome thanks!
4500 dollars to watch your boy say -- you have to touch this one and OUCH
And it was totally worth every penny 😂😂
Such a nice job/analysis. Nice to see the beautiful fence again too. Love it and sort of feel your satisfaction vicariously. Anyway, I was wondering what would happen if the title included different words like "electric fence" or "was it worth it keeping the cattle out" or "the cost of no more cows at my window" with pics, whatever, would more people come to your site? I have no idea how the search functions work but I would love for more people to find you who might not be the usual profile of your fans (airstreamers and nomads, off gridders, etc.) idk. I like marketing. 🤠 (sorry, I know there's a lot of unsolicited advice and opinions these days.)
Thanks Simone! We use a few tools to determine title keyword stuff, but those are all great ideas that we might totally steal :)
@@TinyShinyHome haha please steal any time. ❤️
You guys are survivors ! How many acers do you have. And also look at the money you saved by doing it yourselves. Looks like a pros work.
Thanks Dave. We have 11 acres right now:)
Where can i buy those t post?
We went through Moses from High Desert Homestead. He’s your guy for all things fencing. They’re from Timeless Fence Systems
Why have a fence?
I am from Denmark, and we only need fense to keep our animals in.
But it is a very beautiful fense, You have made🥰
Am I missing something? Why didn't you just go out to corner of property and back to the bat cave entrance? Would of been the same labor and fencing and would have squared things off. .
Because we don’t own that section.
do you think this will keep in goats?
Keeps our adult goats in great. The babies definitely need some training as they can slip through unscathed :)
You've got a crew with your kids...
Start a second crew. 🙉🙉😁😁😁👍👍
Third crew could be grandkids
Greg Judy youtube drills holes with pressure washer. Minutes vs drilling...
Yeah. We definitely don’t have enough water for that and we didn’t even. We’d to drill for most all of them:) it worked out great.
So how much did it cost?
Umm. It’s in the video…
🌟🍀💐
I imagine you are not in California?
Because you are able to build what you want on your land ?
I have land in CA and can't build anything without the city approving or else they will ask for it to be taken down and fined.
But they are backed up for years because of covid in permits and inspections 🤦
So my tiny home in Joshua Tree, CA
Has been postponed for a few years until pending approval
We're in Cochise County, AZ. Lookup the owner builder opt-out. Big reason we bought land here.
OK so question, are you surrounded by cattle? I own 80+ acres but I'm surrounded by cows. I want to fence 5 to 10 acres for a homestead but I'm concerned that local farmers are going to give me problems
Yes. That’s the entire reason we put up the fence. We are in free range country and had two bulls fighting near our water tank! Where we live the rule is if you have a fence with at least 5 strands and the cattle get in and mess something up, it’s the rancher’s fault. So far so good. It’s even keeping the other wildlife at bay.
Also, it’s your property to fence. They have no say as long as you only fence in your property.
My property line's shaped like saw teeth with hundreds of corners in just 2 acres.😭😓
I’m so sorry 👎🏻
Seems very strange that ranchers just turn cows loose to graze on everyone and anyone's property. I don't really understand that concept.
Yeah it's definitely a foreign concept if you've never run into it before. Pretty standard out in this area though, apparently. Look into "Open Range State" if you want to dig into it more.
She's gorgeous
Is more of eyes gazing than teaching. Is good though
