I swear of all platforms I'm most grateful for RU-vid because of these tutorials. Changed my own rotors and brakes, fixed a toilet with RU-vid. Thank you for taking time to share your knowledge 🙏🏾

Believe this or not, but I learned how to rebuild my truck's engine with RU-vid.

@lentoperoavanzo4007 Год назад

@@GuiltyPleasures I’ve used RU-vid videos to learn how to replace the horns and brake switch in my truck, how to shock chlorinate my well, how to replace a sink, how to construct a fire pit out of cinder blocks, how to raise ducks, and now how to repair holes in their chain-link enclosure. I feel like we’re using the internet the right way.

Why not over tension the fence at the end so you have slack to put in the last straw? Is it too tight to do that?

@mikethallheimer7163 2 года назад

I always find the terminology differences fascinating. Straw = needle, chain walker = chain grab, chain link rake = fingers. All same same but different. Been thinking of leaving California. You guys hiring? Once again as I’ve said before, been building fence the whole work week and still find myself watching it on RU-vid on the weekend. Good job fellas! Keep it up.

Dan, who was the perp who cut a square hole in your fence? I mean, I’ve seen a lot of break-ins in the movies… and a fair amount of break outs in prison movies… I don’t recollect ever seeing a diagonally positioned square hole. I’d suggest you go to the local artist commune to find the perp! (No charge for this tip… it’s just one of the many free services I provide to those trying to have a good danged day!) And about those straws… are they alternatives to the much debated ‘paper or plastic’ options?

@SWiFence 2 года назад

🤣 That's a good tip! I'll check there. And no, these straws won't help you there!

@kevinjefferson9739 Год назад

Hello, I’d like to ask for your advice. I have a fence with 19 terminal posts in a straight line. The terminal posts are 2-3/8” inches and 6ft tall above the ground. They are embedded 24 inches down in concrete. Approximately 15 of these posts are not plumb. They are slightly not level. Approximately 5 degrees off. I have a top rail going. I have also a top rail bar that is tension banded between all of these posts. My worry is that over time the terminal posts will continue to tilt. Should I correct them now or is it not worth the effort? What kind of lifespan can I expect if they are going to continue to tilt? Thank you in advanced.

@FackitAllman Год назад

Tried this at work today, with 8 ft repair. It was ungodly how hard it was to twist the needle through, especially near the end, We used a pulljack and a comealong method, Ended up destroying the needle by the end of the day doing exactly what you mentioned about twisting from the top, Any tips on how to do this better\easier?

@SWiFence Год назад

A twist through is hard work--not going to argue with you there. You could maybe cut the strand in half, and twist each half in separately (leave an overlap)? Sorry--I don't have any great hacks for this.

@ctbt1832 2 года назад

@comingtofull-ageinchrist6736 2 года назад

I have a good question for the bottom of the chain link. The wire you use to reinforce the chain link to keep dogs from pushing under it, what is the best practice on that?

@SWiFence 2 года назад

Hmmm, not sure what you're asking here.

@comingtofull-ageinchrist6736 2 года назад

@@SWiFence I was talking about the double braided wire you stretch at the bottom to keep the the fabric from getting stretched out at the bottom, but I just watched one of your videos where you showed your practice of doing that, but thanks for the reply. I really didn't know what to call it, and a neighbor has a dog that keeps getting out under it because no one ever put that wire at the bottom between the terminal posts. I guess I named them correctly; you put those 10' apart with a line post between them, and the wire that stretches between them. but I saw the hardware you use to connect them and then stretch the wire to put the tension on it and the lock the fabric to the wire with the links you use. I always see people wrapping that wire around the posts and stretching it by whatever means. I never see them use the double braded wire though; that makes more sense to add strength to the bottom of the fence. really enjoying the how to videos on chain link. I think I'm leaning more towards a cedar privacy fence, but I like the knowledge you are sharing on posts and chain link fence.

@stevenhunt66 5 месяцев назад

Looks like you have the pole with the tension bar about 2 feet away. Couldn't you have just disconnected at the post, completed your repair weave with no tension on it, and then re-tensioned the fabric to the pole using the tension bar as an easier method?

@SWiFence 5 месяцев назад

You could disconnect it if that's your preference. We wanted to illustrate what to do if you don't have that option.

@stevenhunt66 5 месяцев назад

@@SWiFence Thanks for the reply. Makes sense since you were showing folks how to weave in a section like that. I was honestly curious if what I saw as a more logical solution since the pole was there, would have been a more efficient option. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Take care.

@avichao465 2 года назад

How do we figure out what fabric and gauge fence we have?

@SWiFence 2 года назад

Hmmm, it's easiest for those who already know their fence. You'll have to look carefully at yours (or cut some off and bring it with you) and then compare it with some materials at the store that are labeled.

Where can I buy a few extra 4 foot straws?

@SWiFence 2 года назад

Google your closest fence company. We can always ship to you but it's not really as economical as going somewhere local and picking some up. You may well have to buy a short stretch of fabric and take them apart.

@tysonbrown249 Год назад

@@SWiFence thank you for that advice! Ultimately, after doing that, I still felt like I could make it look even better, so I went to Home Depot and got the regular silver duct tape and did several wraps around each place where a black zip-tie was, and now you hardly know they're there 👍👍. It blends right in with the metal color. It looks so much better, I'm thinking of wrapping each overlapping link with the duct tape so it looks more uniform. Great video, thanks!
