    didn’t read every comment to see if this was mentioned, but a suggestion for those working alone: use a set of board hangers. make em from a vertical 2x4 in a couple minutes with blocks for each board to rest on at desired spacing. run top board first. rest one end on a clamp. fasten one nail/screw. level other end with one nail or screw. adjust as needed to make it flow. screws are great if you need to adjust. hang your board jigs on the top rail and then you can set the bottom three rows hands free. i’m doing 500’ like this with rough sawn oak.

    I built my first fence this year as well. I didn't use a string as a guide on the bottom because my property is so hilly. Looking back I wish I would have at least tried, but felt it would be impossible to keep the boards properly spaced as well as staggering them AND still follow the curvature of the earth without having huge gaps underneath where my dogs can go under. Only a professional fencer would complain. Its 3 rails, painted black with 4x4 square posts. I used decking screws and I'm jealous I didn't buy a nail gun...but I also built it by myself....all 140lbs of me! 1180ft worth. Yours looks amazing, great job! If you want to put up an automatic gate opener, I'd highly recommend Ghost Controls. I was able to install their stuff on my double 16ft gate back in February and everything still works perfect so far. Wish I could share a pic!

    In my experience, nail guns use much too small a nail. We had fencing contractors put up a fence with rails just like that and the boards were constantly knocked off by cattle. For any pasture land I'd recommend putting in larger nails the old fashioned way, with a hammer. Alternatively, nail the boards in from the inside of the fence so the animals push against the post when they push against the boards, not just relying on the strength of the small nails. For fence that won't be in contact with livestock, those nails should be fine. Still, great work Josh. Love the style of your videos.

      Actually, we always use a 4” screw on each edge of the board on each end of the board with a nail in between the screws. The screws will prevent to board from backing off and the nail provides strength. Screws will pop/break without the nails and nails will pull out without the screws.

    It's funny. Every time I watch a video I find myself asking you question during the video. Like "are you going to do this or that now"? lol I'm retired from the Masonry business and we used a "masons line" when we had a long wall. It is a lot faster than using a 4' level if you're going a hundred feet. Even staggering the boards. we laid brick on a half or 3/4 bond depending on the size of the brick. Brick bundles, yep we used a claw hammer! Never used a post driver, but we had about every kind of lift equipment. From a bobcat with forks, rear steer, telescopic booms to a crane. I even have a Paslode finish nailer that is near 40 years old that finally blew the seals. I'm fixing it and retiring it too. Lots of similarities in most things construction related!

    A interesting project would to plant a grove of black locust- maybe 1/2 acre. I think the old timers would do that . State forestry sells seedlings for very little. You could prune them and make them grow straight and fast. Endless high quality posts.

    Pressure-treated lumber is fine, but you will be replacing boards anyway. See that middle board at 3:20 with all those knots? It'll probably fall apart in a couple of years. Most PT lumber is #2 or worse, so it's to be expected. It's still the way to go.

If you are right handed I find it is easier to work left to right cos you can hold the rail with your left leg as you nail with your right hand . I also rail from the top down but that’s just a personal preference as I like to set the line at finishing height mark the post and roll up the line

  • @knottide64
    @knottide64 3 роки тому +3

    Nice job and good video, but never top your posts. The reason for this is the treatment is only so deep into the wood all the way around the post. When you top them, you cut the treatment off of the tops. They will most definitely rot on the tops over time. If you ever analyze an old post that was topped and that’s been in the ground for an extended period of time, they are always rotted at the top, and normally right at ground level. They are rarely rotted where they were under ground. The reason they are normally rotted at the ground is most people eat their posts up with weed eaters, stripping away the treated wood. I have built many fences and I do my best to get the tops perfectly even, using a string, so I don’t have to cut posts. Also, make sure you get it painted right away. I hear people saying you need to let the wood dry out but that’s not true. Let it stand for a couple of weeks in dry weather and your are good to go. We paint about 100,000 feet of fence every year commercially. The longer it is up without being painted, the more damage it will suffer. The reason for this is the UV damage...

    Good job, although I personally never start railing up from the bottom, always start with the top line and work down. That way you can get a nice flowing line along the entire stretch.
    Nail guns, while ultimately quicker make for a weak fence. Nails from a nail gun are much thinner than regular nails and are a lot easier for livestock such as cattle and horses to push off. I always use 4mm x 100mm galv nails, you can use a nail gun for a second nail if you wish. Test it out, drive a couple of 4x100mm nails into a rail and try kicking it off, compare it to nail gun nails, you'll see the difference.
    Another thing, why use round posts for a post and rail fence? Using 5" x 3" posts make the job much stronger. Round posts are perfect for stock net.
    Take nothing as negative, just good old criticism. We all do things differently.
