For all but about the last eighteen months of my life, there were dairy cows on our farm. Those were sold and quickly the farmers started to quietly talk about getting a few head of cattle. Well, time has past and some more thinking has happened and now there's a plan to get some cattle to feed through the winter. But before cattle can hang around our place, we're gonna need some proper fences!
First, get some pipe - thick and super heavy pipe, that is.
Then get a bunch of bags of Quickrete.
And make sure to bring your "big muscles" too.
And remember to thank the good Lord for creating post hole diggers like this one!
The wonders of machinery!
Although, some of the holes might require some actual muscle to get just right.
The pipes are heavy and the bags of Quickrete are heavy, so the job isn't totally a piece of pie.
Check for level - nothing worse than a crooked fence!
Oh! And life doesn't get much better than having a jug of water delivered to your work site!
The post setting phase of the fence is about half done so far. Good thing the cattle won't get here for several more months!
Awesome work on that fence. I need to build a fence on some of my residential properties. It would be awesome to have a post hole digger like you have on your tractor. That sure would make the job go a lot faster!
