finally a video that explains how to set up a string line properly. Completly new to woodworking and every other video just says set up a string line without explaining. Thanks!
I actually appreciate this comment because I don't have time to watch this vid right now, but setting up the string line is one of the MAIN THINGS I needed to know!!!
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.
You are very welcome my friend. I aim to show and explain the why on everything I do. You don’t get that as much on UA-cam sometimes. Thank you for the kind words. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Thank you so much for the kind words. My calling is to help people. Im not a professional but I strive in doing the best I can. If something I do looks great, I will pass on the experience to teach others. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
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!!
This is what UA-cam is supposed to be. Funny, informative, and helpful. Great job and thank you for putting it together. No doubt that was a lot of work. Thank you - I'll be using this video to build my own fence!
That is awesome to hear brother. That is the whole reason I make videos, to help people in an informative but still entertaining way. Thank you for the encouraging comment. You are an inspiration. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend😁🙏
Well thank you so much for that compliment. It always makes me feel good to hear positivity from a professional. So sorry for the late reply. Its been a rough couple of months. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to everyone. 😁😎🙏
Have a quick question for both of y’all if possible I’m doing a fence in obx NC would I need to consider spacing on the pickets for expansion? Thanks in advance
🤣🤣🤣Thanks homie, I sure do appreciate that. I try to make it fun as much as I can. A new Texas Sidewalk Recipe will be coming soon. Have a blessed night and thank you for stopping by😁😎✌️
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.
I appreciate the speed of this video. I usually speed everything up to x1.5 but this one made me check if I had done it already because it sounded like it. Love it :)
Thank you for the kind words my friend. I try to be to the point and somewhat fast paced. Sorry for the late reply🙏. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
🤣🤣🤣Thank you very much. Yea I dont she appreciates a free fence🤣 I didn’t built a door on her side. She will have to pay half the cost of the fence at least for me to build her door🤣 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Wow, this is so straight-forward, NO experience needed! You don't even need opposable thumbs, eye sight or a limbic system to make this, this is so clear.
You are absolutely right my friend. Its not hard, people make it seem hard and not even try. NEVER STOP LEARNING, BECAUSE LIFE NEVER STOPS TEACHING. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
First time i see such a informative video !! TY this a 12k saving for us !!! Please do more project ! such a very important details for beginners with tools !
Thank you very mich for the kind positive words. Its my calling to help people. I will keep making videos. The last 5 months I have been dealing with newly diagnosed Multiple Sclerosis. I feel 100% now after treatment. I will make an update video hopefully this weekend. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
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.
My friend, you win the prize for the longest, kindest comment I ever received. Thank you very much. I always strive to do the best I can. I do my research and I never stop learning. There is a saying, “When you stop learning, you start dying”. Ill try and hold off from dying as long as I can. I am very happy I could help you and anyone in need to build a fence. But most importantly I aim to instill confidence in people that YOU can do anything as long as you try. Thats all I ask. Yes there will be negative comments but I love it🤣. Its just from people that are jealous and wich they could do a great job like this🤣. Its no big deal, there is all kinds of different people in the world, I just pray that they succeed in anything they put there mind to. Thank you for watching, for the great inspiring words and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Yo man, this video has straight up inspired me to start my own dyi fence. I was apprehensive at first but your vid helped me decide to do it and not be afraid to mess it up lol. Thank you! God bless.
THANK YOU brother. My goal is to encourage people to ease their mind that you can do whatever you put your mind to. Im not a professional but I always aim to do the besy I can. If I make a mistake then I will from those mistakes. I pray for much success for you. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎🙏
This was perfect. Thank you for your time. Beryl knocked over my fence and a tree also fell on my house - went through the roof and took down a wall. Battling with insurance company to actually pay what it’s going to cost me to rebuild the damaged part of my home (20k under my lowest bid). Building my own fence to try and put money into my home repairs or for a lawyer 😂. Blessings from Richmond, TX
Im happy to hear that you don’t let small troubles get the best of you. Im proud that you have the mindset that you will not give up and let bad times bring you down. Im happy to help. I got hot by Beryl as well and the fence is still standing🙏Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY Thanks for replying. I needed the motivation. Whoever built the last fence buried all the posts 3’ deep. Some have rebar…. 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. Resting up for the weekend 💪
@@johnm9115 Man that definitely sounds like some work but I know you can do it and will rebuild it right. Someone has to do it, either you or someone else. Might as well be you sir. I wish you the best and have a blessed day my friend 🙏😎
Thank you very much my friend. We all make mistakes amd the greatest mistake a man can make is being afraid to make one. Thank you for watching and for your comment. Sorry for the late reply. Have a blessed day😎🙏
🤣🤣🤣My man. You are the best and I am so happy you got your PHD. Im very proud of you🤣🤣Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
@@alivimia4141 🤣🤣I try my best to teach and be funny at the same time. Actually, both skills come naturally to me and I love it🤣 Thank you for the kind words and for watching. Have a blessed day my friend😁🙏😎
Really nice looking fence & gate! I will refrain from commenting on neighbors, I know I have some that way! Now you can cook outside & enjoy family out back!
Thank you very much Melinda. I do my best at everything I do. Yes I know how you feel. Fortunately there has been no hard feelings and all has been forgotten. I still help my neighbor out when needed. She is elderly and will always respect my elders. But yes I am so glad I don’t have to worry about those big dogs anymore surprising us in the backyard. We love it😁 Thank you for stopping by Melinda and have a blessed night😁😎✌️
this is the first video i've seen from this channel and it was great. i love that you showed your mistakes and you were very detailed about each step. great video sir.
Thank you very much Vanburglar. I really appreciate it. I try to show things the way I would like to be taught or shown something. Thank you for stopping by and if you want some hot summer humor, my channel has grown tremendously due to my Texas Sidewalk Recipes. A parody on how hot it gets down here in Texas🤣 Have a blessed day sir and thank you for watching😁😎✌️
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!
Hello my friend. Great comment. Yea I have a lot of tools but I try to use the basic power tools as much as I could. Yes it does take a lot of work but the main purpose of this video is to show people you don’t always have to run to someone else to do something for you. As long as you put your mind to it, you can do anything. Yes heat stroke is real and I leave it to the individual to gauge their own health when attempting any task, especially outdoors. Great comment, thank you for your time. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIYthanks for accepting constructive criticism. I honestly didn't want the average dude throwing a lot of time and money on something they're probably not equipped to do. Many videos make it look like it's easy. It's far from it. Again, thank you for a great video. Good luck all.
You are most welcome It can be done. Especially if you have the time and the weather is nice😁 Also, it doesn’t hurt to have a helping hand around. Let me know if you have any questions. The fence is still straight and solid. Ill make a 1 year follow up soon. Thank you for watching, have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to you and your family 😁🙏🙏🙏
You are very welcome my friend. If you live in a climate that gets hot and dry at times, with no rain, make sure to water the fence line or install a water hose that slowky drips water. That way your main posts wont start to wobble out of place. Thats what im doing now. No rain in the forecast the next ten days and we haven’t had any rain for at least 10 days already. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
🤣No Problem my friend. It was my pleasure. No one can come close to 80s babies🤣. 1983 for me🤣Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
We mark our runners at 9", 39" and 69" that way you'll have 4" on top and 4" on bottom. We screw the kick board on front of pickets, cool how people do things differently. Looks good brotha
Ah ok cool. Thank you for the advice. I will definitely use that next time. I didn’t really have a set measurement to place my runners. I placed them where I thought it would be best. I didn’t want to get much outside influence since the video was about building a fence with no experience. I definitely learned a lot and appreciate others suggesting different methods without being arrogant🤣Thank you for your comment, for the kind words and for watching. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️Sorry for the late reply
Thank you so much. I watch my share of videos for research and wanted to explain things the way I would want to learn something. I love the little mountains to🤣. Ill think that way from now on🤣Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
I’m looking at buying my first house and the property needs alot of work done. One standout is how old the fence is. Not sure how I’m gonna remove the current fence, but this video definitely gave me confidence to install a whole new one. Thanks for the informative video, I’ll be rewatching as I install it! Keep at it man 😎
I am confident that you will be able to take care of business my friend. I am happy to instill motivation to take on a challenge. Who knows where it may lead. Sorry for the late reply, Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
You are very welcome my friend. That was the whole point to this video, to encourage anyone to take on any task as long as you put your mind to it. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
The tips to get the right cuts are a big help man. I'm saving this since I need to redo a run of fence after a gnarly windstorm we had here south of Houston. Thanks a lot.
You are very welcome my brother. I aim to help in any way possible🙏I pray it all goes well for you my friend. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
This is not the typical fence. This guy does everything exactly as it should be done. It’s expensive but you get what you pay for. So much attention to detail.
Thank you so much Mike. That is exactly the answer I have been waiting for. Instead of the usual, “oh you overdid it” type comments. I think they just wish they could do a great job like this but didn’t. I believe in doing something right the 1st time so you don’t have to come back to it again and have to repair something you should have done right the 1st time. You are the man brother🙏Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
OMG... I was all set to contact a fence installation company but now I need to figure out the savings if I do it myself. Crap... Thanks for posting such a detailed and complete diy video. Subbed and liked
You are welcome brother. There is nothing wrong with hiring a fence company but the ones in my area haven’t been the greatest. So that why I did it myself and saved a bunch of money. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎🙏
@@workthenumberswjake Thank you very much my friend. I didn’t learn overnight. It took the mindset of never giving up and having the will to keep learning. I am confident you can do this. Just take your time, pick some good weather to handle it and don’t ever be discouraged if you make a mistake. Always remember, “THE GREATEST MISTAKE A MAN CAN MAKE, IS BEING AFRAID TO MAKE ONE” Thats how we all learn and I believe in you. Thank you for watching, for the kind words and you have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Thank you very much my friend. I believe a positive attitude is very important to have in anything that you do. I have always had a positive attitude and I still have it. The positive attitude has helped me big time through my recent diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis back in January of this year. I have to make some adjustments but I’d like to wont let it get the best of me. Thank you for watching my friend and have a blessed day😎🙏
this instructional video is fabulous! Direct, efficient, thoughtful and thorough. Thank you so much, I feel like I could build a fence myself! Once I get all the fun power tools...
🤣You are very welcome my friend. As far as the tool go, I tried to keep them simple. They are all basic power tools and when you build a fence, who knows what else you will build with those same tools. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Thank you very much Virginia. I try my best and love to show people how I would like to be shown something. It can be done by anyone, as long as your able bodied. Sure some things could have been done better or they may have been over done, but the end result is a strong fence built with no experience. Still standing strong. I will make an update video once I hit the year mark. Thank you for watching and most importantly, for the kind words. Have yourself a blessed day Virginia😁😎✌️
🤣You are very welcome my friend. I try to include my natural sense of humor in everything I do. It keeps people focused and not bored. I am happy to help and crack a smile😁 Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
After my kids and i built s DIY fireplace, closet organizer, and picnic table, i figure why not build a fence next😂. I have reviewed a few videos but this one right here, will definitely be the blueprint. Thank you so much for being thorough. Have a blessed one. A new subscriber
😁🙏Thats awesome to hear and I am sure you can do this. Thank you for saying this video will be the blueprint. I know how you feel. Good luck to you but you won’t need it. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY God has not only gifted you with talents but has also gifted you with the ability to uplift others. Thank you for your humbling spirit. May God bless you and all of your future endeavors.
@@sabrinadessources1275 🙏🙏🥺Thank you so much for your blessing. I have been in need of prayers since September of last year. 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😁🙏🙏🙏🙏
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🙏😎
Thank yoi for the kind words my friend. I do my best in everything I do and love to show people that you can do anything you put your mind to. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
😁Well thank you VERY MUCH for those kind words. I try my best. Im not a professional but I try to explain and/or teach how I would want to be shown or taught something. If I sound like a professional then thats 90% of the battle right there🤣🤣 We can all do it if we try. Thank you for watching and have a blessed night 😁😎🙏
Dude, you obviously know what you're doing. I have to admit, I was LOST through some of this. Not because you didn't explain it well, but because I'm the least handy person around -- but working on that. 🙂
🤣Thank you for the kind words my friend. Ive always been the type to learn how to do things myself and not HAVE TO count on someone else for every thing. Its taken a period of time and mistakes but thats how we learn. “The greatest mistake a man can make, is being a afraid to make one”. I know you can do it, I believe in you. And after you take carr of this project, who knows where it may lead. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend😁🙏
Well thank you very much for the kind words. I really appreciate that. I try to keep the content interesting and funny but still get the point across. Thank you again for the kind words. Have a blessed night and thank you for watching😁😎🙏
Thank you very much my friend. I waited over 14 years for the neighbor to pitch in on the fence but there was always an excuse. I said the heck with it and just got it done. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
This video was absolutely amazing it makes me think that I can do this on my own even though I know I absolutely can't I had a young Carpenter build my fence 2 years ago and it is horrible
I completely understand. I see crappy fences built around my neighborhood and that encouraged me to build it myself and me and my family love it. I believe in you and if you need a hand, try to reach out to family and/or friends. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Wow this video was great, thank you for your time to talk things through and film every process, not to mention the jokes! Thank you, definitely feeling motivated.
That’s awesome to hear. That makes me happy knowing I could motivate someone to not be afraid of any challenge. Happy to be of some type of motivation for you my friend. Sorry for the late reply, thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Amazing video! Very informative and professional! If all tutorial videos did this it would be the cherry on top but that would be adding all tools, supplies and equipment used in the video for whatever project they do. Other than that gotta love videos like this! Keep up the good work! 👍🏽
Thank you very much my friend. I plan on adding tools and supplies used but you can use any basic brand of tools. Doesn’t have to be high dollar. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed night🙏😎
😁Thank you for the kind words my friend. Not an engineer. Actually a firefighter. I just have always had the drive to learn to do things myself and learn from others. I’ve gotten better by learning from my mistakes and from others. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Hey thank you so much. I tried to explain everything from start to finish just like the title says. I know there were many parts sped up a bit knowing attention spans are not the greatest these days so I try to keep it moving to cut down on any boring parts🤣 Thank you for the kind words and I plan on splitting this video up to a video on how to build a fence gate. Have a blessed day and thank you for the Scotland love😁😎✌️
@@gameasskikerUnderstand the comment and don’t disagree. In Texas, the person with the ‘finished’ side facing their yard is the one who is responsible for the fence. Understand the repercussions but there is some legal stuff that your neighbor may fight you about.
Thank you very much Corey. I try my best and try to narrate and film in a way that I would like to be shown without having to waste time🤣🤣Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. My apologies for the late reply. It has been a rough last couple of months but things are starting to improve slightly. Have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to you😁😎🙏
🤣🤣🤣I know. WE both have had to deal with the SAME thing. I took a stand and enough was enough. She also had family members that would stay at her house and had huge dogs that were vicious. Running into our backyard terrorizing us and crapping back there. I’m happy to say we don’t have to deal with that anymore. Good luck on your fence. We love your dog by the way. He has even made a few appearances in my videos🤣. Especially this one at the very end ua-cam.com/video/bwBj7WUIxTU/v-deo.html🤣. Have a blessed day sir and good luck on your channel😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY Wow! I would have been upset with that myself, but congrats on your fence it came out great! After watching your video I'm thinking about doing it myself. I been watching a few your other videos and I have to say they are really good 👍, and did notice my dog in two of them😄. This dog was getting famous from your videos and I didn't even know it 🤣🤣.
@@PtacSolutions 🤣🤣🤣Thank you very much. Yes my viewers love your dog🤣Building the fence isn’t too bad at all. Only thing with the neighbor she really didn’t want a fence so we moved our fence line 6 inches towards our side so she couldn’t say anything. She also did not help pay for the fence so its all mine. Im sure being a handyman you won’t have an issue with the fence. Your only enemy would be this heat🥵. Keep up the great work sir and let us know if you need anything. Have a blessed day 😁😎✌️

As long as you try, thats more of a start than someone that called someone to build it for them. If you are able bodied, I believe anyone can do it. Get a family member or friend to help if needed. Im proud that the thought of trying at least came to your mind. So sorry for the late reply. Its been a rough couple of months. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to everyone. 😁😎🙏
Thank you so much. This proves that you don’t have to be a professional to do professional work. Take your time and plan it out. Get some help if needed but its not a huge deal to take on a challenge. Just put your mind to it and you can do anything. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁

I have hear that but it doesn’t make sense to me. If I reversed it then my neighbor would have the flat side and I would have the other. The problem would still exist🤣Thank you for watching and for your comment. Sorry for the late reply. Have a blessed day😎🙏
Fantastic video! Thank you! I'm about to undertake building my own first fence, and this video was super helpful. Also, I truly enjoy your humor and detailed instructions. I'm now subscribed and look forward to watching more of your videos. Thanks again!
Thank you very much my friend. I love to teach and add a little humor to keep people interested🤣.

That’s awesome to hear. Im naturally a humorous guy and love to make people laugh. It allows for a much better attention span🤣Im happy to hear you and your son are taking care of business🙏. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
Thank you so much Mr. Brandon. Im here to show people you don’t always have to be a professional to tale on a project. Just plan it out and do your research and you can do a much better job than some so called “professionals”. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Thank you so much for the kind words! That means a lot. Im not a professional but want to show people that you don’t have to be a pro to do every job out there. If you are able bodied, YOU can do things yourself without having to rely on others. Fence is still straight ans solid as a rock. So sorry for the late reply. Its been a rough couple of months. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to everyone. 😁😎🙏
Thats awesome to hear and you are the reason I make videos. I believe in you and you can do it, if you try. Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
You got that right. Insurance keeps getting higher and higher. Id rather build it myself if I am able to and feel good about myself taking on a challenge. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
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
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.
You are very welcome my friend. I am blessed to have been able to get this project done before getting diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. But after a rough few months, I am feeling the best I have ever had. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
Thank you so much. I hope to get more DIY videos out soon. Standby this summer for my famous Texas Sidewalk Recipes🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
Outstanding video!!!! You are a super handy guy! I almost think I could do my own fence in a similar manner, but I don't have all the great tools you already seem to have....hmmmmm? Your editing of this video was outstanding! Fast moving fast paced video that always holds your interest! Great job and thanks!!!
Thank you sooo much for the kind words. Yes I have a Collection of tools that I have gathered over the years. I try to be handy and be an example to my 3 sons (Step-sons) whom are pretty much grown. My oldest who is 28 thanked me on Christmas for being g a great example to him. He is now fixing things around his home and doing a heck of a job in life in general. Anybody can build a fence as long as you are able bodied and have the Motivation to do it. It also doesn’t hurt to have a small hand here and there🤣 Thank you for watching, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year😁🙏🙏🙏
That’s awesome my friend. I am very happy knowing that I could encourage anyone to tale on any task as long as they put their mind to it. I believe in you amd know you will do an excellent job. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
🤣🤣You are very welcome. Humor comes naturally which I’m so happy for. Adding a little humor keeps people interested. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
🤣🤣Oh most definitely. I don’t want that crap in my lungs. Even if I am outside, that doesn’t make a difference. It will find its way inside🤣🤣Thank you for watching and for your comment, have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Thank you very much for the kind words. Its not that hard to do and you get the satisfaction knowing you did it yourself. Who knows what else that may lead to. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend😁🙏

Great video. How long did it take to build and how many hours per day did you put in?
😂😂😂 awesome that fart noise 😂😂
finally a video that explains how to set up a string line properly. Completly new to woodworking and every other video just says set up a string line without explaining. Thanks!
You are very welcome. I try to teach people how I would like to be taught. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😃🙏
I actually appreciate this comment because I don't have time to watch this vid right now, but setting up the string line is one of the MAIN THINGS I needed to know!!!
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.
You are very welcome my friend. I aim to show and explain the why on everything I do. You don’t get that as much on UA-cam sometimes. Thank you for the kind words. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
In one word it’s “outstanding” not only the whole project but also the entire conversation
Thank you so much for the kind words. My calling is to help people. Im not a professional but I strive in doing the best I can. If something I do looks great, I will pass on the experience to teach others. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Bro, this is not only informative, but funny as heck!
🤣🤣🤣Thank you very much. I try to teach and be humorous at the same time. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏
Videos like this are awesome for people who didn’t have anyone to teach them…. Thanks dad 😑
🤣🤣You are very welcome son🤣🤣 Thats what us good dads are for. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
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!!
This is what UA-cam is supposed to be. Funny, informative, and helpful. Great job and thank you for putting it together. No doubt that was a lot of work. Thank you - I'll be using this video to build my own fence!
That is awesome to hear brother. That is the whole reason I make videos, to help people in an informative but still entertaining way. Thank you for the encouraging comment. You are an inspiration. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend😁🙏
How much was everything?
@@rachaelgoldstein6134 great question. It was roughly $1500. Sorry for the late reply. Have a blessed day🙏😎
Been fencing for almost 10 years now and I approve ! Beautiful work done correctly 👍🙏🏽
Well thank you so much for that compliment. It always makes me feel good to hear positivity from a professional. So sorry for the late reply. Its been a rough couple of months. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to everyone. 😁😎🙏
Have a quick question for both of y’all if possible I’m doing a fence in obx NC would I need to consider spacing on the pickets for expansion? Thanks in advance
this guy has officially become the best How To Channel on YT
🤣🤣🤣Thanks homie, I sure do appreciate that. I try to make it fun as much as I can. A new Texas Sidewalk Recipe will be coming soon. Have a blessed night and thank you for stopping by😁😎✌️
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.
I appreciate the speed of this video. I usually speed everything up to x1.5 but this one made me check if I had done it already because it sounded like it. Love it :)
Thank you for the kind words my friend. I try to be to the point and somewhat fast paced. Sorry for the late reply🙏. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
I need a neighbor like you!!!
🤣🤣🤣Thank you very much. Yea I dont she appreciates a free fence🤣 I didn’t built a door on her side. She will have to pay half the cost of the fence at least for me to build her door🤣 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
This is one of the best comprehensible and instructional video for fence installation I’ve watched. 👴🏿👏🏿👏🏿👍🏾
Wow, this is so straight-forward, NO experience needed! You don't even need opposable thumbs, eye sight or a limbic system to make this, this is so clear.
You are absolutely right my friend. Its not hard, people make it seem hard and not even try. NEVER STOP LEARNING, BECAUSE LIFE NEVER STOPS TEACHING. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
First time i see such a informative video !! TY this a 12k saving for us !!! Please do more project ! such a very important details for beginners with tools !
Thank you very mich for the kind positive words. Its my calling to help people. I will keep making videos. The last 5 months I have been dealing with newly diagnosed Multiple Sclerosis. I feel 100% now after treatment. I will make an update video hopefully this weekend. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
🙏✊️
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.
My friend, you win the prize for the longest, kindest comment I ever received. Thank you very much. I always strive to do the best I can. I do my research and I never stop learning. There is a saying, “When you stop learning, you start dying”. Ill try and hold off from dying as long as I can. I am very happy I could help you and anyone in need to build a fence. But most importantly I aim to instill confidence in people that YOU can do anything as long as you try. Thats all I ask. Yes there will be negative comments but I love it🤣. Its just from people that are jealous and wich they could do a great job like this🤣. Its no big deal, there is all kinds of different people in the world, I just pray that they succeed in anything they put there mind to. Thank you for watching, for the great inspiring words and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Yo man, this video has straight up inspired me to start my own dyi fence. I was apprehensive at first but your vid helped me decide to do it and not be afraid to mess it up lol. Thank you! God bless.
THANK YOU brother. My goal is to encourage people to ease their mind that you can do whatever you put your mind to. Im not a professional but I always aim to do the besy I can. If I make a mistake then I will from those mistakes. I pray for much success for you. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎🙏
This was perfect. Thank you for your time. Beryl knocked over my fence and a tree also fell on my house - went through the roof and took down a wall. Battling with insurance company to actually pay what it’s going to cost me to rebuild the damaged part of my home (20k under my lowest bid). Building my own fence to try and put money into my home repairs or for a lawyer 😂. Blessings from Richmond, TX
Im happy to hear that you don’t let small troubles get the best of you. Im proud that you have the mindset that you will not give up and let bad times bring you down. Im happy to help. I got hot by Beryl as well and the fence is still standing🙏Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY Thanks for replying. I needed the motivation. Whoever built the last fence buried all the posts 3’ deep. Some have rebar…. 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. Resting up for the weekend 💪
@@johnm9115 Man that definitely sounds like some work but I know you can do it and will rebuild it right. Someone has to do it, either you or someone else. Might as well be you sir. I wish you the best and have a blessed day my friend 🙏😎
3:30 in and I liked and subscribed because you pointed out your mistake and how to fix it ON POINT instead of waiting til the end.
THANK YOU
Thank you very much my friend. We all make mistakes amd the greatest mistake a man can make is being afraid to make one. Thank you for watching and for your comment. Sorry for the late reply. Have a blessed day😎🙏
I was on the fence, but now I'm going to get my PHD.
🤣🤣🤣My man. You are the best and I am so happy you got your PHD. Im very proud of you🤣🤣Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏

Build the wall!!!🤣🤣Thank you for watching homie and have a blessed night😁😎✌️
A video that's worth a like and subscription 👍
🙏Thank you so much my friend. People like you is why I do this. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Let's be honest, I'm only wishing I could do this on my own, but I still couldn't stop watching the whole video. You are hilarious!!!
@@alivimia4141 🤣🤣I try my best to teach and be funny at the same time. Actually, both skills come naturally to me and I love it🤣 Thank you for the kind words and for watching. Have a blessed day my friend😁🙏😎
Same!!! I don’t have any of the tools. But still watched every minute of the video. Nice work!
@@keishlaaquinoalers4160 Thank you my friend🙏😎
This is pure gold, Thank you!
Thank you VERY MUCH. I appreciate the kind words. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Really nice looking fence & gate! I will refrain from commenting on neighbors, I know I have some that way! Now you can cook outside & enjoy family out back!
Thank you very much Melinda. I do my best at everything I do. Yes I know how you feel. Fortunately there has been no hard feelings and all has been forgotten. I still help my neighbor out when needed. She is elderly and will always respect my elders. But yes I am so glad I don’t have to worry about those big dogs anymore surprising us in the backyard. We love it😁 Thank you for stopping by Melinda and have a blessed night😁😎✌️
this is the first video i've seen from this channel and it was great. i love that you showed your mistakes and you were very detailed about each step. great video sir.
Thank you very much Vanburglar. I really appreciate it. I try to show things the way I would like to be taught or shown something. Thank you for stopping by and if you want some hot summer humor, my channel has grown tremendously due to my Texas Sidewalk Recipes. A parody on how hot it gets down here in Texas🤣 Have a blessed day sir and thank you for watching😁😎✌️
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!
Hello my friend. Great comment. Yea I have a lot of tools but I try to use the basic power tools as much as I could. Yes it does take a lot of work but the main purpose of this video is to show people you don’t always have to run to someone else to do something for you. As long as you put your mind to it, you can do anything. Yes heat stroke is real and I leave it to the individual to gauge their own health when attempting any task, especially outdoors. Great comment, thank you for your time. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIYthanks for accepting constructive criticism. I honestly didn't want the average dude throwing a lot of time and money on something they're probably not equipped to do. Many videos make it look like it's easy. It's far from it. Again, thank you for a great video. Good luck all.
@@Oh6Torch you are very welcome my friend. Thank you for your honesty and kind words. Sorry for the late reply. Have a blessed day🙏😎
I love your fence. My husband and I are thinking about putting up a fence as well. We appreciate you sharing 🫶🏾
You are most welcome It can be done. Especially if you have the time and the weather is nice😁 Also, it doesn’t hurt to have a helping hand around. Let me know if you have any questions. The fence is still straight and solid. Ill make a 1 year follow up soon. Thank you for watching, have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to you and your family 😁🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for helping. Make sure I don't make a lot of the mistakes I seen in this video
You are very welcome my friend. If you live in a climate that gets hot and dry at times, with no rain, make sure to water the fence line or install a water hose that slowky drips water. That way your main posts wont start to wobble out of place. Thats what im doing now. No rain in the forecast the next ten days and we haven’t had any rain for at least 10 days already. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
This very informative and instructional video. That it last 14 years is awesome.
Thank you for the kind words my friend. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😎🙏
Fr Fr! I appreciate you taking the time out for dropping this one. 80’s baby.
🤣No Problem my friend. It was my pleasure. No one can come close to 80s babies🤣. 1983 for me🤣Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
We mark our runners at 9", 39" and 69" that way you'll have 4" on top and 4" on bottom. We screw the kick board on front of pickets, cool how people do things differently. Looks good brotha
Ah ok cool. Thank you for the advice. I will definitely use that next time. I didn’t really have a set measurement to place my runners. I placed them where I thought it would be best. I didn’t want to get much outside influence since the video was about building a fence with no experience. I definitely learned a lot and appreciate others suggesting different methods without being arrogant🤣Thank you for your comment, for the kind words and for watching. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️Sorry for the late reply
I like the cement mounds they look like little mountains. I wish every video was this informative. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much. I watch my share of videos for research and wanted to explain things the way I would want to learn something. I love the little mountains to🤣. Ill think that way from now on🤣Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
I’m looking at buying my first house and the property needs alot of work done. One standout is how old the fence is. Not sure how I’m gonna remove the current fence, but this video definitely gave me confidence to install a whole new one. Thanks for the informative video, I’ll be rewatching as I install it! Keep at it man 😎
I am confident that you will be able to take care of business my friend. I am happy to instill motivation to take on a challenge. Who knows where it may lead. Sorry for the late reply, Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Beautiful job❤
I’m having that same problem with my neighbor an the dogs🤣🤣
Thank you for reinsuring me that I can do it myself.
You are very welcome my friend. That was the whole point to this video, to encourage anyone to take on any task as long as you put your mind to it. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
The tips to get the right cuts are a big help man. I'm saving this since I need to redo a run of fence after a gnarly windstorm we had here south of Houston. Thanks a lot.
You are very welcome my brother. I aim to help in any way possible🙏I pray it all goes well for you my friend. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
This is not the typical fence. This guy does everything exactly as it should be done. It’s expensive but you get what you pay for. So much attention to detail.
Thank you so much Mike. That is exactly the answer I have been waiting for. Instead of the usual, “oh you overdid it” type comments. I think they just wish they could do a great job like this but didn’t. I believe in doing something right the 1st time so you don’t have to come back to it again and have to repair something you should have done right the 1st time. You are the man brother🙏Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
OMG... I was all set to contact a fence installation company but now I need to figure out the savings if I do it myself. Crap... Thanks for posting such a detailed and complete diy video. Subbed and liked
You are welcome brother. There is nothing wrong with hiring a fence company but the ones in my area haven’t been the greatest. So that why I did it myself and saved a bunch of money. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎🙏
Wow - you sir are a craftsman. I'm looking forward to the ups & downs of building my fence! Thank you!
@@workthenumberswjake Thank you very much my friend. I didn’t learn overnight. It took the mindset of never giving up and having the will to keep learning. I am confident you can do this. Just take your time, pick some good weather to handle it and don’t ever be discouraged if you make a mistake. Always remember, “THE GREATEST MISTAKE A MAN CAN MAKE, IS BEING AFRAID TO MAKE ONE” Thats how we all learn and I believe in you. Thank you for watching, for the kind words and you have a blessed day my friend🙏😎

Brilliant, ultimate 'can do' aptitude
Thank you very much my friend. I believe a positive attitude is very important to have in anything that you do. I have always had a positive attitude and I still have it. The positive attitude has helped me big time through my recent diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis back in January of this year. I have to make some adjustments but I’d like to wont let it get the best of me. Thank you for watching my friend and have a blessed day😎🙏
this instructional video is fabulous! Direct, efficient, thoughtful and thorough. Thank you so much, I feel like I could build a fence myself! Once I get all the fun power tools...
🤣You are very welcome my friend. As far as the tool go, I tried to keep them simple. They are all basic power tools and when you build a fence, who knows what else you will build with those same tools. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
I love the specific instructions you gave, thanks.
Thank you very much Virginia. I try my best and love to show people how I would like to be shown something. It can be done by anyone, as long as your able bodied. Sure some things could have been done better or they may have been over done, but the end result is a strong fence built with no experience. Still standing strong. I will make an update video once I hit the year mark. Thank you for watching and most importantly, for the kind words. Have yourself a blessed day Virginia😁😎✌️
I’m building a fence and I’ve watched a lot of videos. This one was my favorite, funny and informative. Very nice work.
🤣You are very welcome my friend. I try to include my natural sense of humor in everything I do. It keeps people focused and not bored. I am happy to help and crack a smile😁 Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
My toxic trait is thinking I can do this myself. But I still watched the whole video.
🤣Thank you for watching my friend and I know with your toxic attitude that you can do anything🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😎🙏

@@sabrinadessources1275 🙏🙏🥺Thank you so much for your blessing. I have been in need of prayers since September of last year. 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😁🙏🙏🙏🙏
I know this vid is old but maaaaaaan I’m abouts move into a place that has a very janky fence Thankyou for all your help brotha man
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.

You are extremely talented and you explain like a professional ❤
😁Well thank you VERY MUCH for those kind words. I try my best. Im not a professional but I try to explain and/or teach how I would want to be shown or taught something. If I sound like a professional then thats 90% of the battle right there🤣🤣 We can all do it if we try. Thank you for watching and have a blessed night 😁😎🙏
Dude, you obviously know what you're doing. I have to admit, I was LOST through some of this. Not because you didn't explain it well, but because I'm the least handy person around -- but working on that. 🙂
🤣Thank you for the kind words my friend. Ive always been the type to learn how to do things myself and not HAVE TO count on someone else for every thing. Its taken a period of time and mistakes but thats how we learn. “The greatest mistake a man can make, is being a afraid to make one”. I know you can do it, I believe in you. And after you take carr of this project, who knows where it may lead. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend😁🙏
Dude!!! What a thorough video. You did an awesome job and kept it entertaining. Thanks for what you do.
Well thank you very much for the kind words. I really appreciate that. I try to keep the content interesting and funny but still get the point across. Thank you again for the kind words. Have a blessed night and thank you for watching😁😎🙏
Nice fence. The lower stringer looks like it would help to discourage under fence digging. Nicely done.
Thank you very much my friend. I waited over 14 years for the neighbor to pitch in on the fence but there was always an excuse. I said the heck with it and just got it done. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
This video was absolutely amazing it makes me think that I can do this on my own even though I know I absolutely can't I had a young Carpenter build my fence 2 years ago and it is horrible
I completely understand. I see crappy fences built around my neighborhood and that encouraged me to build it myself and me and my family love it. I believe in you and if you need a hand, try to reach out to family and/or friends. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Wow this video was great, thank you for your time to talk things through and film every process, not to mention the jokes! Thank you, definitely feeling motivated.
That’s awesome to hear. That makes me happy knowing I could motivate someone to not be afraid of any challenge. Happy to be of some type of motivation for you my friend. Sorry for the late reply, thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Amazing video! Very informative and professional! If all tutorial videos did this it would be the cherry on top but that would be adding all tools, supplies and equipment used in the video for whatever project they do. Other than that gotta love videos like this! Keep up the good work! 👍🏽
Thank you very much my friend. I plan on adding tools and supplies used but you can use any basic brand of tools. Doesn’t have to be high dollar. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed night🙏😎
Outstanding video sir: very detailed! You must be an engineer!
😁Thank you for the kind words my friend. Not an engineer. Actually a firefighter. I just have always had the drive to learn to do things myself and learn from others. I’ve gotten better by learning from my mistakes and from others. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Watched you 3 times from Oban Scotland. Great video, well explained , very helpful and very entertaining. Thanks a lot!
Hey thank you so much. I tried to explain everything from start to finish just like the title says. I know there were many parts sped up a bit knowing attention spans are not the greatest these days so I try to keep it moving to cut down on any boring parts🤣 Thank you for the kind words and I plan on splitting this video up to a video on how to build a fence gate. Have a blessed day and thank you for the Scotland love😁😎✌️
Thanks man this helped me repair my fence.
You are very welcome. Im happy to help. Hope you have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to you and your family😁😎🙏🙏
I love it. I would personally just make those top middle and bottom pieces on the inside of my fence. I wouldn’t want someone to use them to jump over
I understand but if someone wants to break in, they will find a way. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY assisting a burglar/ threat to get into your home is wild
@@gameasskiker 🤣In my mind, if anyone wants to break into your home, they will find a way
@@gameasskikerUnderstand the comment and don’t disagree. In Texas, the person with the ‘finished’ side facing their yard is the one who is responsible for the fence. Understand the repercussions but there is some legal stuff that your neighbor may fight you about.
Bro. All of the narration is exceptional
Thank you very much Corey. I try my best and try to narrate and film in a way that I would like to be shown without having to waste time🤣🤣Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. My apologies for the late reply. It has been a rough last couple of months but things are starting to improve slightly. Have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to you😁😎🙏
Love your video.

That’s awesome advice, thank you so much for sharing. Have a blessed day and year🙏😁😎
Great video neighbor!! It's funny because I have the exact same problem with my own next door neighbor😂😂
🤣🤣🤣I know. WE both have had to deal with the SAME thing. I took a stand and enough was enough. She also had family members that would stay at her house and had huge dogs that were vicious. Running into our backyard terrorizing us and crapping back there. I’m happy to say we don’t have to deal with that anymore. Good luck on your fence. We love your dog by the way. He has even made a few appearances in my videos🤣. Especially this one at the very end ua-cam.com/video/bwBj7WUIxTU/v-deo.html🤣. Have a blessed day sir and good luck on your channel😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY Wow! I would have been upset with that myself, but congrats on your fence it came out great! After watching your video I'm thinking about doing it myself. I been watching a few your other videos and I have to say they are really good 👍, and did notice my dog in two of them😄. This dog was getting famous from your videos and I didn't even know it 🤣🤣.
@@PtacSolutions 🤣🤣🤣Thank you very much. Yes my viewers love your dog🤣Building the fence isn’t too bad at all. Only thing with the neighbor she really didn’t want a fence so we moved our fence line 6 inches towards our side so she couldn’t say anything. She also did not help pay for the fence so its all mine. Im sure being a handyman you won’t have an issue with the fence. Your only enemy would be this heat🥵. Keep up the great work sir and let us know if you need anything. Have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
I really enjoyed this video, and feel like I learned much more through this video than any other
You are very welcome my friend. My goal is to teach and be a little funny to keep people interested. Never stop learning because life never stops teaching. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Absolutey amazing, breath taking, phenomenal🤩 the best I've seen ever!😊 Thank you both!
🤩🤩🤩🤩Thank you SO MUCH for the kind words. I strive to do the best I can in everything I do. I wanted to make a video that was informative and a little humorous🤣 Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIYyour very welcome!
💪🏾 Love your narration! The video is fairly easy to follow and you do a great job of explaining each step in detail! Now i might have the courage to do my fence this Spring!
Thank you so much for the kind words. I hope to encourage anyone to take on a challenge. I wish you the best. Thank you for watching, have a blessed day and sorry for the late reply😁😎🙏
Hey, man.I just checked out your video. I am officially about to build my own fence this Saturday.I live in San Diego, California. Your video gave me the courage. Pray for me, bro.I'm going to need it! Lol
🤣I am very happy to help my friend. I know you can do it. Ill pray for you and hope it all goes well if you haven’t done it yet. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
@FunkyColdMedinaDIY
My fence went well. I had a couple of stumbles, but I expected it to happen. I went back and reference.The video helped me out tremendously. I also enjoyed the other videos on the channel. You have a great sense of humor.
@@MuammarHamed 🤣🤣Thank you for the kind words my friend. I love to teach and make people laugh. It makes learning something new much more pleasure when a laugh can be made🤣
great video . I learn some stuff. you did extra stuff that I have not seen before. great job
Thank you very much for the kind words. Im not a Professional but i have been involved and watched a ton of diy shows all my life.🤣 Ive picked up certain things along the way. My purpose if just to help motivate someone and let them know that YOU can do anything if you put your mind to it. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. My apologies for the late reply. It has been a rough last couple of months but things are starting to improve slightly. Have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to you😁😎🙏
Great video! Thanks, I'm going to try to do my own now after watching.
As long as you try, thats more of a start than someone that called someone to build it for them. If you are able bodied, I believe anyone can do it. Get a family member or friend to help if needed. Im proud that the thought of trying at least came to your mind. So sorry for the late reply. Its been a rough couple of months. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to everyone. 😁😎🙏
Beautiful work. Looks professional.
Thank you so much. This proves that you don’t have to be a professional to do professional work. Take your time and plan it out. Get some help if needed but its not a huge deal to take on a challenge. Just put your mind to it and you can do anything. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Great job I was worried about building one myself but now I feel way better! You just gained a subscription! Keep up the great work bud!
You are very welcome my friend. I always aim to motivate people to take on any challenge. Just give it a try and see what happens, no matter how small a task you may think it is. Who knows where it may lead. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Thanks for sharing your process!!
You are very welcome my friend. I am always happy to help the best I can. Sorry for the late reply, Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎
Love this! I always thought you’re supposed to turn the panels inwards with the flat side out though.
I have hear that but it doesn’t make sense to me. If I reversed it then my neighbor would have the flat side and I would have the other. The problem would still exist🤣Thank you for watching and for your comment. Sorry for the late reply. Have a blessed day😎🙏
Fantastic video! Thank you! I'm about to undertake building my own first fence, and this video was super helpful. Also, I truly enjoy your humor and detailed instructions. I'm now subscribed and look forward to watching more of your videos. Thanks again!
Thank you very much my friend. I love to teach and add a little humor to keep people interested🤣. I plan on getting back to making videos, especially my Texas Sidewalk Recipes🤣 ive been dealing with a health issue but I’m currently feeling the best I ever had. The video is on my channel that talks about where the heck i’ve been🤣Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Super helpful video. I really enjoyed watching your content. After Beryl, I'm having to do some fence work myself and this really helps! Thank you!
@@omarcelis2317 You are very welcome my friend. I went through Beryl as well and man it was windy but the fence didn’t budge at all. Still standing nice and strong. Im happy to help in any way I can. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
Fantastic work sir! Thanks for posting the video!
You are very welcome my friend. Im happy to help anyone in need and motivate them not to be scared to try out something new. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day🙏😎
Very well explained video.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I try my best to explain things how I would like to be taught on how to do anything . Thank you for the comment and have a blessed day😁🙏
This video is AMAZING! The humor adds to the whole video. All the other videos are just to serious! My 11 year old son and I are having a great time builiding our fence and we have no experience. 😂😂😂
That’s awesome to hear. Im naturally a humorous guy and love to make people laugh. It allows for a much better attention span🤣Im happy to hear you and your son are taking care of business🙏. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
Wow! Very thorough! Thank you!! Fantastic job btw!!!!
Thank you so much Mr. Brandon. Im here to show people you don’t always have to be a professional to tale on a project. Just plan it out and do your research and you can do a much better job than some so called “professionals”. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Thank you for those sharing techniques
You are very welcome. Hope to help anyone take on a challenge. Thank you for watching, have a blessed day and sorry for the late reply😁😎🙏
What a moving video, great detail, thx for sharing
Thank you so much for the kind words! That means a lot. Im not a professional but want to show people that you don’t have to be a pro to do every job out there. If you are able bodied, YOU can do things yourself without having to rely on others. Fence is still straight ans solid as a rock. So sorry for the late reply. Its been a rough couple of months. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day and Happy Holidays to everyone. 😁😎🙏
This was a great video, I definitely feel like I can take on my fence now!
Thats awesome to hear and you are the reason I make videos. I believe in you and you can do it, if you try. Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
The fence looks great, you made it look easy.
Thank you very much homie and thank you for watching. Get ready for May the Fourth star wars sidewalk recipe. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Yo thanks for making this video, it helps out a lot and was fun to watch!!!
You are very welcome my friend. I love to teach and entertain at the same time🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed night🙏😎
With home insurance now being a scam and instead of going through them to get a fence fixed after a storm I am now here
You got that right. Insurance keeps getting higher and higher. Id rather build it myself if I am able to and feel good about myself taking on a challenge. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
Same!
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
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.
@FunkyColdMedina DIY ff😅⬇️uj😅u r uo😮 jr uff😮to😊to)5ff l😮 ok
Incredible job and great video.
Thank you so much for the kind words. You are the MVP. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Super well made video. Congrats on a wonderful job and thank you for sharing.
You are very welcome my friend. I am blessed to have been able to get this project done before getting diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. But after a rough few months, I am feeling the best I have ever had. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
Dang that looks good my boy 👍👍
Thanks homie, I appreciate that a bunch. It was hard work but definitely worth it. Have a blessed day homie😁😎✌️
Yeauppp, I’m subscribing to this channel. Great video
Thank you so much. I hope to get more DIY videos out soon. Standby this summer for my famous Texas Sidewalk Recipes🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
Outstanding video!!!! You are a super handy guy! I almost think I could do my own fence in a similar manner, but I don't have all the great tools you already seem to have....hmmmmm? Your editing of this video was outstanding! Fast moving fast paced video that always holds your interest! Great job and thanks!!!
Thank you sooo much for the kind words. Yes I have a Collection of tools that I have gathered over the years. I try to be handy and be an example to my 3 sons (Step-sons) whom are pretty much grown. My oldest who is 28 thanked me on Christmas for being g a great example to him. He is now fixing things around his home and doing a heck of a job in life in general. Anybody can build a fence as long as you are able bodied and have the Motivation to do it. It also doesn’t hurt to have a small hand here and there🤣 Thank you for watching, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year😁🙏🙏🙏
