    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 &nbsp;straighten the post after you tension the fence with the threaded rod.

    We have found the steel diagonal brace doesn&apos;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&apos;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.

    Steel strainers 200mm wide concreted in at 1100mm with a 3 metre stay ,you can&apos;t go wrong

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

  • @johnboyce6044 · 3 years ago

    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&apos;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&apos;s no way you got that cap on top of the post by tapping it with your claw hammer. 🤔
