How to tighten a loose Barbwire fence without a fence stretcher 

Hey everyone! I put links in the video description for the tools I used in this video. I would highly recommend having a set in every vehicle and 4wheeler that you use on the farm. Make sure you go check those out.

Thanks mate. looking forward to using your simple method. Downunder

Absolutely brilliant, I never saw that done here in Ireland. I was buying buying expensive grapples. Thanks for the demonstration, cheers 🍻

Here's another great fencing tip that I think everyone should know Check out the link below. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IGpwMkyBjPU.htmlsi=tj64BmzfPqFkbIm-

Love it how you tightened the barbed wire with the piece of 12 ga. wire,...thanks for the video,..keep on fencing!

I watched a few videos for some fresh ideas. Yours is by far the best no splicing etc. Why make it any harder than it is. My personal philosophy is to not make work for myself. And it needs to look like it never happened. Smooth and clean repairs for looks. You practice the "KISS" method. Just like I do. I have done it by pinching wire with the tip of fencing pliers and twiisting it to tighten wire.

Thanks mate I will do this when I get back to my farm this weekend!!

Tractor Supply should put you on payroll. I bought the wire after watching your video and have used this technique a few dozen times. It has saved me hours of time and my neighbor is now using this technique. Great video!

.75 cents ea. Some body done seen ye-a c0ming! Lol, Great vid tho & be careful that barbed wire is like yellow pages it will reach out and touch you/or someone you knowq!!!

First thing, invest in American wire. The Chinese junk is poor and will always stretch-break. Look at a Texas Fence Fixer for a nice clean mend. An American quality product.

Great advice! As a novice, I'm glad I found your channel. 👍

Wow, great tip. Thank you for sharing.

I have used claw hammers before to tighten the fence. Hook the claw on the fence and twist. It is not pretty and it probably weakens the fence. Your way looks better.

Great video...but i think you put the tpost clip on upside down

Thanks brother. New to the life but trying to learn. This will surely help me tighten up the fence in the pasture. Needs to be done and no one's done it, so ima do it.

John, thanks ... very helpful for me right now. And Savannah, great camera work.

Works really good and cheaper

Thank you 🙏 Great advice. Extremely helpful 🤗

What is that tool with the holes in it called you are using to twist t-post clips?

I really like this technique you have on how to get the wire tighter. I am definitely going to try this.

You be ta man. Nicely done!

I will definitely be trying this on my fence

Your cows are like where’s my hay? Where’s my corn?

Very informative. I’m fixing to try it. Thank you

Thanks for nice trick to tighten barbed fence.

Excellent video, thanks from Ireland.

Great vídeo and very useffull..

New follower. Great tip.

What is that little metal bar with holes that you used to twist the cable? I'm trying to find it but I don't know the name. Thanks for the video.

I will try that next time. Thank you

Thanks so much for posting this. Very helpful.

God bless

Can this work with a particularly extra loose fence? Can you just keep turning until it tightens as much as you would like?

Thank you Jhon. Very helpful video. Gracias

You really should take care of the noxious weeds before making a video! "multiflora rose"

Thank you so sweet !

Love it! I have many fences that need tightening. What is the tool you use to wrap the wire besides the fencing pliers?

Well done; thank you

I would truly appreciate it if ya'll would share my videos I am trying to grow my channel and it would mean the world to me.

Thank you! Will do

Can you do an updated dated video to this , its hard to see exactly what your doing with your hands please.

I had 2 dead trees fall on my fence& 1 tree that fence was mounted on was cut by some vandal. I spent nearly 3 hours today trying to tighten the wires. I started by trying to use twisting tool. At 70, I don't have strength I used to, so I went & got come a long. Fence been there too long! I am going out to try your tip. Got too much to fix & dark coming on. Thank you!

Thank you for this great idea

Great tip

Don't forget to like and subscribe to my channel for more videos

you can also just go along and bend a few 90s in the wire

Great tip!

The reason most wire gets loose is how it’s wrapped around the corners. Most folks wrap twice around corner post with no tension on that part of the wire. When you take the stretcher off all the tension goes to the corner wrap and loosens over time. Best way is when you build new fence pull the wire from the back of a tractor or truck and staple wire to post as you tightly wrap it around corner post. All wire will loosen over time but not as bad if you get those corners really well stretched and stapled.

Just tried it and broke the wire
