When I was young, I always had the job of cleaning out the base of the hole with an old dog food can.<br>Steel is definitely quicker and easier, but the timber wins for looks every day of the week.

The great thing about the steel setup you used is you can straighten the post after you tension the fence with the threaded rod.

We have found the steel diagonal brace doesn't stand up to the pressure bulls can put on it. Get a couple of bulls either side of the fence and the strut can be moved. But they're great when you have a fibre-optic in the vicinity. No holes!

My grandad always had an old broom handle with a baked bean tin wired to the end as a scoop for cleaning out holes.

Can I ask what size drill bit and pin you are using to hold the top rail? Thanks!

Good video Tim,<br>I use a hybrid design for end assemblies. Instead of a plate kit I use a half length post and an extra clamp. It's a bit cheaper and you get twice as much post in the ground.<br>Tip: use a post clamp as a guide to cut the peined end of the post off with your angle grinder. There's no way you got that cap on top of the post by tapping it with your claw hammer. 🤔
