I have 300 ft of chain link fence in my back yard, to keep my dog in. The fence is in terrible condition. Sags, missing ties, no bottom wire; previous owner diy special. I contacted a fencing company to come out and service it. Never heard back! Red hot sales lead ignored. I have worked with my hands almost my entire adult life, now 77. There is nothing I've seen on this video that I can't undertake, and I have the cutter tools already. Great video. Very well explained. The man has mastered his craft.

I'm installing chain link for the first time. Your video demystifies the processes. Thank you for not glossing over any details. 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Thanks ! Just did 350' of fence with 6 gates and couldn't have done it without your videos.

You did an excellent job explaining. I'm a teacher and I'm always impressed with someone who can explain things so well.

I am from Czech republic, in Europe. It is interesting to see how different your fence system is. We don't use the top rail, that would be too expensive, instead we use 2-3 tensioning wires (top, middle, bottom), which are not twisted wire, just a single one and on each wire there is a ratchet tensioning mechanism. To prevent terminal posts from bending under the weight of the fence we use struts at 45deg angle attached at 2/3 of the height of the terminal posts and on link posts each 80 feet. These days more and more people don't even actually use the chain link fence, but we use square hole spot welded fence, which is much stronger and doesn't require the tensioning wires. Instead the horizontal wires of the spot welded fence are bent slightly to a V shape in each square and then to tighthen the fence we use special pliers which are bending the V shape to be more pronounced, effectively making the square narrower and thus tensioning the fence. A lot of times we also use concrete plates underneath the fence, which are sitting on the ground, attached to holders on the fence posts, this is to prevent dogs from digging underneath the fence.

I’m a ham radio operator and have been using chain link fence post for years as masts to hold up my antennas and weather stations. It works very well and is very secure when done correctly

Buying a house and a chain link fence is badly needed so this is very helpful thank you. I’ll be watching this again

As a full time pipe-layer "opportunities to hit things are endless", hits me on a personal note.

I've been watching you for over a year now, and just want to say your delivery and presentation have improved sooo much. Keep it going brother, very professional.

Many years ago my cousin took me out to help him build a fence just like this. In reality, he helped me learn something new. I had forgotten some of the details and the names of the pieces we used but this video brought it all back. Very informative and straight to the point. Great video

[DaisyHaugen]

Absolutely the best and straight forward video on chain link fencing I have seen. Thank you!!

[elebeu]

This is a fantastic video!
SO much valuable information, no unnecessary blabbing, background music at the proper volume and a tool and parts list.
Man, I think I'm going to put up a fence just for the fun of it.

Great video. Super detailed, but where sometimes that can be tedious, you have a comfortable, entertaining, On screen style. I'm building a fence for my niece and wanted to refresh my memory. Was a great distraction from the Toronto Leafs losing another game they should have won.

I form and finish concrete. Today I had a fence side job. Thanks for saving my bacon with this video
