How to Build a Fence from Start to Finish with Wire to keep Critters In or Out // DIY Fence Project

In this video I walk you guys through building a fence from start to finish. Everything from the fence layout for your posts, milling lumber for cross braces, and even building some traditional fence gates. This fence project also includes some welded wire, which is a bit like chain link fencing but much more attractive to keep that farm style look going and giving us some security while keeping our animals from escaping.

i really appreciate you keeping the mistakes in and making the project real. this is almost exactly what i want to do for my fence, so thanks for the tutorial!

I really do appreciate you showing the imperfect processes of manhood and the building process. Looks great! Man is fence building and gate building a different animal!

I love that you kept the mistakes you made in the video. Keeping is real gives a novice such as myself a more realistic expectation. Great explanations, great camera work, and great job on that fence. Thanks so much!

Great job, truly appreciate a lot of the details you’ve explained in this video. I am a first time fence builder an am doing it on 2 acres. I am deep in the woods and fighting roots, but so far my posts are straight. All my progress is thanks to you.

In the summer of 2000, I bought a house in Alberta with no fencing out back at all to keep our dogs in, so that was my first priority. I tried an auger (a big two-man one) and the rocks threw me and my brother-in-law right off that auger, nearling breaking our wrists. I found out from my elderly neighbour that back in the very early 1900s, hundreds of horse cart lods of river rock had been brought into the area as a base for the former stampede ground where our houses on the south end of the town were now built. I ended up having to dig 37 post holes by hand. Nine-foot posts with three feet in the ground.I over-spec'd the fence making sure each hole was bell-shaped for good centre of gravity and less prone to the fencing shifting over the years due to drost and wind. And I drilled each post and put a one-food piece of rebar through it (after re-treating each hole with rot-preventing treatment. It damned near killed me! I sold that house in 2005. In 2018 I drove past it and that fence still looked good.

Im still shocked this hasn't hit a million views. What a solid break down.

It looks great!! Always surprised at how much work and precision goes into something that appears simple. I think those inflatable shims might be the perfect giftee for certain people I know!

Thank you for this. Great work. Will do this plan this weekend.

One of the best fencing videos I've seen here in Youtube (and I've been watching many, MANY, WAY TOO MANY of them!)

Thank you and greetings from Portugal.

I love the ash! And thank you for sharing history on how fences were built with hardwoods such as poplar. Makes sense as treated wasn’t a thing back then except whatever oil or chemical a farmer had on hand 👍🏼Have plenty of it locally and it’s cheap. One thing, I’m wanting to add in a shorter fence up front of my house so my dogs can actually enjoy the shade and spy on neighbors... I’d actually want hog wire (my Aussies are rough and tumble and slam into the current fence I have our back) for my fence because it’s thicker. I think I’ll inset my wire into the panels but I love the classic style you went with and it absolutely fits the area and your other fence. Very nice

Phenomenal video! Great instruction and great work!

[learninladyhomesteader]

I love your fence and am glad for all the tips and little tools that just will make it easier! Have to see if can afford this style, but I love the look of it for sure and that you don't have to do the whole stretching thing for the fence wire this way...that seems daunting lol thanks!

Incredible instructional video. Enjoyed it Komar! I followed your steps, including renting the same auger, to be build a horizontal fence with a 1 inch spacing around my 1/2 acre property.. Like others said, this video should have more views. It's rare you click to the second page to find the content you need! This video should be front and center

This was a great video and I really appreciate the links. Thanks

You’re amazing. It came out so beautiful. 😍

I got this notification last night on my phone was all excited to watch it with a nice cup o' coffee and once again, you didn't disappoint! That fence is awesome! Wish I had those corner levels when I did my fence!

Hello my friend,
It's great to see you again. You created a beautiful fence. The pillars and door are perfect. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing. Stay healthy and happy. See you. Big greetings...
