Looks good @DFC do you use HFS/Wooden Supplies for your timber?

 

[DFC]

@Andy26, yes sometimes, suppliers of "decent" proper creosoted woodwork are few and far between! Who do you use?

Usually HFS.

Sometimes Musson fencing at Melton.

 

[DFC]

@Andy26, the woodwork in the above photos is all HFS, they hold good but more importantly consistent stock

There is something special about seeing a nicely erected fence. I want to know how you strain the wire? We just put it tight with a chain on a tractor and double staple on tbe strainer but i'm sure there must be a better way. And do box strainets make a difference?

 

[DFC]

@Magnificent Earwig, we mainly use a quick fencer mounted on the front linkage for straining the stock net/horse net etc. however, they have their drawbacks. They can't be used everywhere and the don't like short runs. To a degree the longer the better. For the awkward bits we use a clamp and monkey strainers to pull up the wire.

 

[Magnificent Earwig]

So really, using the quick fencer is similar to us use a iron bar and chain. I guess there is no right or wrong way of doing it.

I prefer to strain from the middle with boundary strainers and crimp the wire. so the wire is strained evenly throughout the strain, difficult to do though with short lengths.

Fencing done a few months back, building nearing completion. Been keeping me out of mischief.
