Farm fence construction, part 2. Braces and woven wire without a stretcher. FarmCraft101.

Part 2 of how to build woven wire field fences, all steps included.

Finishing up the fence. We have had a lot of rain recently so it took awhile to get it done. The ground was pretty wet from all that rain, so I chose to use my cart to pull the tension rather than making ruts with my tractor.

Cost for 330' of woven wire field fence is about $180. Cost for posts and staples brings it to around $1 per foot for materials. Gates can be pricey, but the light duty ones aren't worth the money. Get heavy duty gates and don't buy any more than you need.

Many people buy fence stretching tools that can get pretty pricey. I think they are a waste of money, as I can stretch a fence quickly and easily as tight as I need using my vice grips and webbing. I guess if I was a full time fence builder, I would have a stretcher, but us farmers need to be frugal and resourceful!
