      Posts are the first thing to fail, Good depth but too wide. You want to be able to easily replace them, I would stick with cedar 2x4s and pickets for longevity. Wood quality, especially pine, just doesn’t last like it used to.

    I almost never comment on UA-cam videos but I’ve gotta say I watch a lot of how to videos on this platform and this has got to be the most comprehensive and digestible guide I’ve ever seen. The details and explanations so viewers can understand the why and not just be mimics. I’ve never even heard of compression strength but with your quick example I get why the brace goes the direction it does in a gate instead of just copying what you did with no shot of retaining that info for future use.
    I have literal pages of notes in front of me for this weekend’s project. Thank you.

      As someone who’s going to be building my own fence this winter, I agree. There’s another video on here about how to build a fence gate which I also love, but I’ve gone back to these two videos over and over. This video has answered several questions I’ve had with every other fence video. This video even has the added bonus of the gate and staining - things you also have to do on every fence project. So it’s great to have it all in one concise video.

    Okay, I love how clear this tutorial was. When I ever get my own place with a nice size yard, my goal is to get a dog, but I want to fence the yard in so the dog wouldn't bother the neighbors unless I'm living in the country. I added this to my new playlist of how to build things by other youtuber's tutorials. This was the only video I ran into so far, first one I clicked. And you explained everything so crystal clear and you showed which tools to use, how to measure and what the measurements should be. And you even made sure that we needed to know to have professionals check for water/power lines underneath the ground! I'll be sharing this video for sure!!

    That was one of the best tutorial videos I have ever watched when it comes to explaining how to do something yourself and I was very impressed with every step you took in the process of building something that will last and even with 41 years in construction, I still continue to watch and learn from others to enhance my skills and knowledge because there is always something valuable in a well put together video by someone who knows how important it is to do something once and do the research necessary to feel confident about doing every step correctly and the best way possible to have it last. Your entire method for setting your posts is very impressive and the most effective way yet that I have seen because you didn’t cut any corners when it came to making sure that your post doesn’t rot because it is encapsulated in concrete, and you took the time to make sure you had a substantial amount of concrete on all 4 sides of your post and I am sure you were not happy about having to move them away from the property line, but it was obviously necessary with that particular neighbor and bringing the concrete up above ground level and shaping it so you have proper water runoff and no dirt near the post to cause rot issues. Also, your methods for strength and stability in your runners, and checking for crown in your runners are all great factors to include in your video and extra steps taken for aesthetic appeal and attention to detail are all great tips and points to include in this video. Amazing job and I would highly recommend this video to anyone who is interested in taking on this task themselves for sure and I don’t ever read all of the comments in these instructional videos, but honestly with my 41 years in construction, I can’t imagine anyone would ever consider posting any criticisms that may be in the comments, because I couldn’t find one single aspect of your process that I would critique in any way at all and I would just like to say thank you for taking the time to create this and edit this to absolute perfection and it held my attention 100% from beginning to end and was worth every minute of my time to watch and I would not hesitate to watch it again right before I was getting ready to build a fence just to refresh my memory on everything you did throughout the entire process. This is the only video anyone really needs to watch if they are planning to build a fence for themselves, including me. Thanks again and keep up the great work and contributions to your library. -Billy Miller/Handyman Services & Odd Jobs, LLC in Virginia I have the highest of standards in every job I do, and I would hire you in a heartbeat because it is so difficult to find someone who cares about their work and will go out of their way to perfect every aspect of whatever they are doing, and you prove this right here and with minimal maintenance that fence will last for generations and most homeowners never do after you put so much effort into something for them and they think it will just take care of itself. I will definitely be back to watch more of your work here.

I was unable to use a farmers jack because the posts are too old and break. When I wrap the chain around the concrete after digging a couple feet the concrete breaks. Had to dig out 14 posts in this Texas clay. Each one took 2 plus hours to dig out. Cut my fiber optic cable in the process (it was marked but it was right next to all the posts and bound to happen) All holes are gratefully filled to the top with water from the rain.

    I think this an outstanding video, both content and editing. I build fences for a living. I can honestly say that you definitely need some experience to build your own fence. The first fence I built was for a little old lady. I asked her to pay for the materials and an extra $20 for my beer. That was 15 years ago. That fence and what I can build today is night and day. Looking at your tools I can see that you have about $500-600 in tools. Someone with zero experience isn’t going to have most of these tools. Not discouraging anyone from building their own fence. Just saying that digging holes and pulling up broken cemented fence posts isn’t fun in any weather. Handling circular saws and drills in the hands of an inexperienced person can be dangerous. And lastly, heat stroke is a real thing. You don’t know you’re getting it until it’s too late. Thanks for sharing!

      You are very welcome my friend. Yea the video is about 1 year old but fences have been around for decades and they are basically built the same. I try to encourage people to take on a challenge and who knows where it will take them in the future. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎

    Any gravel in holes for drainage? Fence looks great 👍

    • @FunkyColdMedinaDIY
      @FunkyColdMedinaDIY  Рік тому +1

      Thank you very much. No I did not put gravel in the holes. I only put about 2-3 inches of concrete on the bottom of the hole. I never cut the bottom of the 4x4s or 4x6s so the bottom was still sealed. Ive seen people paint on motor oil on the bottom to help seal it more but ive never head issues with the wood rotting. As long as you have a proper slope of concrete running away from the posts on the ground. Based on your username I assume you are from Houston, as am I. Clay soil is all around and it sucks at draining any water. You could put gravel down if you want but water won’t drain unfortunately. The concrete I placed on the bottom is enough separation so the wood won’t be in direct contact with wet dirt. Another thing to think about is water collecting and wicking down from the top of the post towards the bottom underground. Make sure to seal the top of the post with a sealer, like I used in the video and you will be good. Thank you for your question and for watching. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️

    This is very inspirational- did you hire a surveyor to check on your property lines and if you how much did it cost you - Austin Texas here!

    • @FunkyColdMedinaDIY
      @FunkyColdMedinaDIY  Рік тому +1

      Thank you for the Texas love. I was thinking about getting a surveyor just to be sure where the property line would be but I remembered when I purchased the home, a property survey was included with the long list of paperwork that you are given when buying a home. I went with that, which seemed to be legit. My neighbor said she also had a survey but always had an excuse and never showed me anything. I decided to wait no longer, so I built the fence 8 inches toward my side of the property so my neighbor couldn’t say anything. I haven’t had an issues. With the neighbor or the fence🤣. Im not sure how much it would cost, I’m sure a google search for land surveyors in your area will lead you in the right direction. Thank you for the love, your comment and the kind words. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎🙏. Let me know if you have anymore questions.

    My first video of yours I have seen and I must say, Great job Sir! IMO I would have put a small gap in between slats for a little extra wind draft, I know it’s only a 6ft fence and doesn’t block much but every little bit of wind helps on a hot day! :) Also, here in Florida we are required to have the “pretty side” facing outward even if it’s towards the neighbors house… Keep up the good work my friend! 👍🏻

    • @FunkyColdMedinaDIY
      @FunkyColdMedinaDIY  Рік тому +2

      Thank you very much for the kind words. Yes I didn’t space the pickets since I knew that they would shrink as time went on. Currently there is a 1/4 inch gap in between the pickets. I tried looking up which face to have the fence but could not find anything here in Houston, Texas. BUT my neighbor had been giving me a hard time and she did not want a fence, but we did for 14 years. I finally said “enough is enough, I am tired of waiting”. So I said screw it and got my survey. I actually built the fence 8 inches away from her property line so that way it would be MY fence and she couldn’t say anything. Is that the right thing to do? I am not sure but I will not take it down. So far no problems and me and the neighbor are still on good terms. I hope you were not affected by the hurricane, if so, I pray everything is ok. Thank you for your comment and have a blessed day. Thank you for the Florida love😁😎✌️

      Insurance has always been a scam except for way back at the beginning. And the reason being is people like you guys have always went running to your Insurance to pay for everything.
      Fires, floods, catastrophic events is what Insurance is meant for.
      Not fences, not carpet, not even if a contractor says they can get your Insurance company to pay for a new roof.
      SCAM

    • @usedyou.19
      @usedyou.19 8 місяців тому +2

      Insurance keeps going higher because people use it to get a new fence vs learning a few skills and doing it themselves.
      However this video made the job way more challenging then it is for most people.

I will be making an update video and will release it as soon as it is finished. My faith has definitely been kicked up into high gear and it has helped tremendously. I currently feel 110%. You will be the first person to know what I have been dealing with, as far as UA-cam comments go. Back in late January of this year and dealing with many neurological symptoms, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. An autoimmune disease that tells your own immune system to eat inflammation, which it is so supposed to, but it targets the nerves of your brain and spinal cord. It eats the inflammation but the body tells the disease to keep eating and it eats away at the coating that covers the nerves from your brain which causes neurological deficits. It’s actually more common in females. 66% compared to 33% for males. The percentage chance of me getting MS is 0.1%. I remain positive and do what I have to do in order to prolong my life and health. There is currently no cure for MS but I will be starting a monthly shot treatment once a month to keep the attacks from happening. I will be fine and I explain much more in the update video coming soon. Thank you for your blessings and prayers. Have yourself a blessed day😁🙏🙏🙏🙏
