Excellent demonstraiton. thank you for sharing. I've seen these fencing corner brace arrangements exactly like this or similar, hundreds, if not thousands of times over the years. But I've never had the occasion to actually watch them being constructed. Nice to actually see one being put together.

Outstanding videos Pete. The fact that you go through all steps and show the tools used to complete helps out tremendously!

Great video! I normally use the tractor to position the horizontal braces before using the long bit to drill the holes. It makes sure rebar is aligned correctly while driving it in.

Great video. I will be doing fencing soon and this is the most simple way I have seen to do corners. Thanks.

Thanks for this, Pete! I really like how you didn't over engineer everything. I was really glad to see the reliable simplicity of your wire stays. (I was over thinking that bit) I hope the orchard is going well. I'm currently building my fencing to keep out elk and coyotes.

Nice work, and it's peaceful listening to you explain what your doing without all the anoying useless info other channels are providing. You hit the nail on the head when you said there are other ways of doing it, but this was cheap and it works. I'm all for the cheapest way as long as it works and it lasts. I will be doing a similar project but around a veggie garden here in Minnesota. I will be going a bit shorter height though because our dog is able to keep out all the potential animal intruders. Thanks again!

.. You are a Very Patient and Very Dedicated Man .. Great Job building those Corner-Posts ..

This was probably the best video on setting a corner post I have seen. Thank you very much

Your method and instruction was very helpful. Built a solid fence using your method. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

I always use a new project to justify a new tool purchase. It's clear to me now... what I am missing to make this whole thing come together is the tractor.

My wife and I are just starting our homestead...you can bet we are going to use this technique. Thanks!!!

Mans best friend besides a dog is the posthole auger!🤠

Beautiful demo Sir... watching from Africa

Honestly the best fencing videos I’ve ever seen. Thanks a ton!

Thank you for taking the time to share this skill with us!

Amazing video. I started the day thinking of building a T post fence.... Now after three of your videos I know I'm doing it the right way now. Only difference is I have to use 4x4 or 6x6 treated and maybe log cabin screws.. I can not get the posts like your here... plus now I have to get a post hole drill for my tractor! Oh and to save a little I'm building the gates with square tubing and expanded metal... Great video you have a new subscriber.....

really like the idea of coating the post bottoms, should last a LONG time !!

Thanks for a good demonstration. Now we’ll start fencing in the spring. God bless you.

I go to a lot of farm sales. Over the last few years i have picked up a lot of cheap cable come alongs. Easy to use for your bracing.

Outstanding video! Very detailed step-by-step procedure! Thank you for sharing your knowledge & experience with us! Sincere regards!

Your video has answers to a lot of my questions, other than setting up posts too. Plus, nice to see an Indian brand tractor operating in US. Cheers :)

I know its pretty had when you work by yourself. You could have cut the top of you post at a 45* to shed water or maybe you will tar them. Also you could paint an X or a + with bright paint so you could hit dead center. Nice Job !

Thanks, just learning to farm. About to start fencing for 3 cows

Set all corner posts , first , pull a string........then set all other posts for each corner !

Pallet forks for the loader sure does make that job a lot easier.

Great video!! I am having to repair several fence parts on my property. This certainly helps me with some extra ideas. Thanks a bunch!

I have found It's easier to position the cross bar then drill the holes, especially when working alone. Less work lining up pree drilled holes.

That is a really nice corner post , I sure do like the way you have done it, nice and sturdy. My husband always put the gate on the ground and it had gotten so hard for me to open is why I said what I did about the wheel, we ended up putting them on the gates :-)

I never brace the corner posts. I use old FPL concrete posts for the corners and bury them 5 feet in the ground. You just put galvanized rod through holes you drill and hook the tension bar. A brush fire destroys wood posts so it's concrete and steel here. Plus the ground is mostly coral rock.

Thank you for this video! Better information here than from the building supply house where i bought the posts. I appreciate you man!!

I've been building a fence post brace post like that for 40 years but I always put my posts in the ground 4 feet deep

This guy has his sh!t together ! Great job & great video ! Lot's of Anglo women have to be wondering, how come he didn't choose local. Thanks for the super video Pete, this helped me much.

Great video, and your work looks good! But if you want some tips from someone who builds and paints fences for a living, here you go. Save your clamps. Just start and end your wire at a post and staple the ends to the post. No clamp is necessary. Also, there is no need to paint or treat the ends of the posts going into the ground. UV does way more damage to the wood than the soil. Almost every post I have ever pulled to rebuild fences is like new below the ground. It’s from the ground up where they deteriorate from the UV and heat. Also never cut posts. Try to space your posts better, or if driving them in, drive them to the right depth. When treatment is applied at the mill, they only treat the posts so deep all the way around. As soon as you cut them, you have just exposed untreated wood to the elements and it voids the warranty of the posts. And last but not least, once you are finished twisting the wire with the rebar, remove the rebar. The wire will not unwind. Again, you are doing a great job but I hope these tips help you are others.

Great video series. I'm moving to rural Maine and trying to figure out a low cost, effective deer exclusion solution for the garden/orchard. Thanks for the well produced helpful vids.

I have been looking for a video like this for a while, clean, straight to the point. When I'll do mine I was thinking about sealing the top of the post (crosscut) facing the sky with the same protective paint you used at the bottom to avoid water to stagnate in small pockets and eventually get its way into the post which with freezes may promote wood cracking. I have no experience though so don't know how strong that treated post is so I may be overthinking.

Thank you Sir! Awesome job! Butch, Ashland Ohio

I've seen a deer jump a 10' high chainlink fence. Also good job on the fence. I am a fence contractor in SW Florida. I install pvc, chainlink aluminum and wood fence. Ill be installing my first no climb horse fence in a month or so.

I just found your channel. Loving it... Blessings to you! I really needed to learn this info for a future project!

Just thinking about the use of a tension wire for bracing as opposed to the old method of a compression timber pole brace that goes in opposite direction. With a gate hanging off that post the wire helps to keep the vertical posts and the horizontal beam clamped together tighter, were as the wooden brace method would pull apart. But if its just fencing wire on both sides I think I still prefer the good old wooden braces, also with notches on all joints to stop slipping up and down the posts. It's the old school Chippy 🔨 in me, can't beat a good mechanical joint over relying on just fastenings. 👍🏽

Wow man, nice lawn. Wish I could grow that much down here in West Oz. I’d need way too much water to look after an area that big. Great clip too mate, cheers 🇦🇺

at the bottom of the post i put a chain saw cut just over 1/4" deep on the cack side for the wire to set into, plus 2 staples one on each side, as i have had the wire slip up in the winter pulling out the staples, our frost go down 7 feet.. o tar the cut once the wire is in

Really enjoyed this thanks hope the dogs are all doing OK best of luck...

Thanks, I am going to do the same but down sized a little. I'll make my 2 acres in town look like country.

Excellent video! Thank You. Looked online and could not find 6”x10’ posts at Tractor Supply.

Nice job, unless that end treatment allows water to escape it will build up and still rot the bottom. If you ever have removed a bad fence post ( like the ones you have )the top always rots first due to the fact that water enters the top (seal the top and forget the rest) the post is already treated also add rock to the bottom so any water drains

Very helpful with how to do the wire bracing.

I would break 1 7/16” grade 8 sheer pin an hr drilling holes for my posts where I live, the soil has so many big rocks. 55 hp tractor, 12” auger.

Great video! I’m about to build our goat pen with utility poles I’m getting for free from our electric company. Also going to use them as raised beds.

Absolutely love your channel. Learning a lot from every video.

PA Lawn Guy. Pete, I was thinking I would take some marking dye and paint a concentric circle around each stake, remove the stakes, and move the auger to each circle without having to dismount the tractor twice at each stake to drill each hole. I think this would save you time. Please leave your thoughts.

great video - very useful for me to see what I need to do on my first fence. Thanks! Good comment by Rick Berg below, too.

좋은 거 보여주셔서 감사합니다. Good job.Thanks for sharing.

I am a first time viewer love what I see so far!

If you turn your pto off while your auger is still in the hole then lift it out nice and slow it will leave you a little less work cleaning them out.

I have those long drills. They go through like lightning.

I wish my land was level like your...lol. Oh well. Great job. Handsome fella. Wish I could have help you.

Nice video. Imagine how hard this would’ve been before tractors and battery powered tools!

Awesome video. Helped me with a college project.

Great job! Gonna be doing that some time soon on our project!

Great video, Thanks. Fixin to start a fencing job and this really helps me find out how to brace the corners.

"I don't use a drill bit this long ever" lol that's what she said. Subbed

Five in the ground on the corner that will be 4-H braces on toners they will not lean when you tension The wire

Pete nice job with the post,well it’s been 2 years so I am guessing you will getting some fruit this year.

Thank you sir. You just have done my day. I work on it tomorrow!

Good job. Nice soil. Thanks for sharing.

You did such a super job with this video, Thank you for sharing with us!

Wish tractor supply had big posts like that.

Good video sir. We are doing some fencing on our land. Gonna use this video as a guide. Thanks

Good video & instructions. Thanks

Great video. Clear and concise. I am in east Texas also. Would you share your additional treatment recipe?

Thanks good info Iam going to start a project this helped a lot. I probably look at video again.

Thank you! Been looking for something that did not involve all that high dollar hardware for corner bracing / wiring.

Thanks

I like how he tells his dog to leave. Dog says yikes!

Raise the forks to eye level, then drill a hold in the post's end

Great video. Thanks the step by step process and detail.

Thanks dude. Exactly what I needed.

The distance between the corner posts and the brace ought to be twice the height of the fence

Wish I lived on a farm, love that tractor and accessories. Guess I am a farm boy wannabe. :O)

Like that car in the background when you're digging the holes

Just ran across your channel.. Great video!! Just gained yourself a new subscriber from Oklahoma!

Great video Thanks Bud👍🏻

Great video. I will be putting a fence up soon and this will be very handy!

Just Wonderful. Learnt many things! Thank you

You must live close to me..I am close to onalaska texas..I love watching your videos

I want to do almost exactly the same thing, but I keep getting hung up on cutting a mortise joint with the chain saw rather than using a piece of rebar. I'm now at the acceptance stage that yours is the way I should be doing it. I guess I could use 2 pieces of rebar instead of just one?

I wish my soil looked like this!

Painting them was a great idea -- thanks . Last week lowes appraised regular metal fence for 5,600$$$$ ----hahahaha ====>>>>SHIT!!!!!!! .

thats some nice soil there. good video

I liked this, but i have gates at the corners. Not enough room to move it down.

I would think you would want to measure the height on the corner post and markit with a small nail. Then, run a string to the each of the support poles using a line level. that way, if the ground is uneven, your horizontal supports will all be level - even if teh 'ground' ain't

thank you for this.

Awesome video im about to do some fencing for cattle very informative thanks a lot

A D10 dozer would have trouble moving those post. That’s stout!

Like your channel!! I live in Etex as well! Want a couple of acres where my son can do this stuff❤️

up all night watching stuff, yo0ur post are about 2 and trheequarter in out of plumb at the top, gonna affect the swing of your gate

Might sound critical but not meaning to be.....but why not do away with the braces.... just use a single corner post..... Use a cement silo stave ( or similar ) an place it just in front of the main brace post. Place the stave..flat.... just below the ground tight against the post. Its spreads the forces out and holds much better! Similar as pulling a piece of dental floss through your hand compared to a thick rope. I skinny post will not stand the forces. Just pulls through the ground. Where as....spreading the forces over say three feet....your making the post at least 4 times thicker. It wont tip over !

Some Timber screws would have been nice to see you use. I wish our ground was as easy to auger into here.

Well done mate, that should hold up to those pesky elephants.

Thanks. Great video, worth the watch.
