Thanks for the vid. I saw these and was wondering how to install them. My only suggestion would be to put the bottom one as low as possible and then set the top one based on that. It would be much stronger that way since the off-corner post wouldn't have as much ability to flex.

Hey man. Good video. It looks easy. I bought some and am going to put 10 foot T posts in to accommodate 8 foot forged steel braided fencing I got free from a game preserve. It's going to be sturdy. I'm a little confused since I haven't broken open the packages to look at the hardware yet. I'm just having trouble picturing if it's an issue not putting the studs outward since I'm trying to deter deers mainly and have been told to face them outward if I'm trying to keep stuff out rather than in. Giant kitchen garden I'm refencing because cedar posts finally rotted out after 10 years. Figured I'd make something that will last longer. I have Icelandic chickens that can fly over 7 foot fences easily so going to put two feet roll of chicken wire fence at the top of the 8 foot fencing to deter them and make racoons fall backwards lol

Thanks for the demo. I noticed that when you tested the setup, you pulled against the corner post towards the other post. Very impressive. Yet I did not see you PUSH against the corner post, away from the other post. When I tried that, my diagonal post simply fell out of the brackets. Did I do something wrong, or is this a design defect?

Maybe this works for you, but there are way better solutions. By week 3, my chicks were already jumping on top of the waterer and pooping into it. Nothing would change with this solution. You'd still have birds flying on the top of the bucket and pooping into the water. The only thing you've changed is the amount of water they can poop into. The best solution is to use the chicken nipples. You can go with the simple solution and just stick them on a 5 gallon bucket or you can get fancy and hook up a 55 gallon drum to pvc pipe and put the nipples on the pvc pipe. Either way: * you never have to worry about poop or bedding or dirt of any kind EVER getting into the water * you don't have to worry about water freezing Regarding water freezing, all you have to do is put a poultry heater in the bucket that's controlled by a thermostat outlet. It turns on when it drops below freezing and turns off when maybe it's 34F. You can actually take a 2 week vacation with my method. With yours, by day two, you'll be asking yourself, "Is the water really that dirty? I think it can last another day!!!"

The lid is not air tight. The draw from the water would pull air through the lids seam and all of the water would run out. Putting the lid on the bottom creates and air tight seal.. at least for the type of lid I used.

Steel t posts will typically outlast your wooden posts. It would also depend on what your fencing in or out? Smaller livestock… I would use these all day long. If I was fencing in cattle… I would set my corners with rr ties or treated posts, or even welded corners.

Any suggestions on a gate? I’m wanting to fence in my chickens (they’re destroying my yard) so I bought 10 T-posts. I can buy the wedge-loc for the corners (not that chickens will be causing problems) but I need a way in to gather eggs and feed/water them.
@thebriarpatch5105
@thebriarpatch5105 Жыл бұрын
Wedge Loc actually makes a connector for gates that attaches to T Posts as well. I found mine on Animalhealthexpress.com. Not really a fan of that option. I had to grind down the connecting pieces to get the gate to be able to swing wide. They work… just required some extra steps. . If you search T Post gate connectors, there are several options available.

Wrap the fence around a corner post enough to reach the 1st post around the corner. Then use the end wires and wire it to the post. So your gate would be from the corner to your first post

You shouldn't soak them in water, there's really no point, all it does is make the mushroom even more mushy. A few bugs and a little dirt is natural and harmless. The FDA even regulates a certain amount of bugs allowed to be in everyday produce you buy at the store.

I would agree.. it just depends on the level of bugs you have. We’ve picked some with no bugs at all, other batches have had complete ant colonies in them. Just depends on the level of stuff in them and your personal comfort level with the amount of “extras” you want in your mushrooms.

I did 16 corners with these for deer feed pens (to keep cows out). If you install them 100% perfectly on a 90° angle, and each post is perfectly squared off (flat with knobs facing out) they do work. If any of the posts are even a few degrees off (twisted or out of square), when you load up the tension on the barbed wire, the aluminum sockets pretty much just bend apart. It’s very frustrating. If you have a welder, just skip these and weld the pieces together. Trust me. At $20 per corner plus all the extra posts. Fence panels would have been cheaper, and way less stressful.
