Mastering the Art of Straining and Knotting Fence Wire

Such an excellent teacher. Very practical and excellent explanation

Me dê de presente uma esticador de arame desse aí acho muito bom esse esticador com catraca

Tim's the dad for everyone's who's real dad left to get a pack of cigarettes.

What a contraption to tie some wires together, nothing wrong with the yellow ones you threw away, as been used for 47 years.

So simple so secure. I can hardly wait to get off work and go home and tried one of these nuts on my new fence that I’m putting up.

With the increase in using HT barbed wire now, does it need different knots to your old videos?

Where can I get one of those hats?

But is that not electric fence? Don’t u need isolation at the endpost

Is the same not used also for Barbwire joining thank you

Excellent!!! the coloured spaghetti straws were perfect. thank you.

Instead of tieing the wire to both end posts and then straining, cutting and knotting, can you strain the wire to the end post and then knot the wire to the post instead using an end knot?

Something I have been trying to understand, is it considered ok to strain to a post and then use a termination knot or is too much tension lost versus doing a strainer knot?

Excellent video; wish I knew what that knot was called - or is it a Tim Thompson special

Excellent video!! Thanks

Great video, I will give it go.

Thanks for these. I hate wire, and I hate strainers, and I'm too old and weak for this crap; but your videos are helping me with my first fencing attempts on my first small acreage. Gotta say.... not enjoying horse sighter wire, nor the 20kg strainer post driver for my waratah end stay assemblies lol. My waratah strainers don't always walk well, but not sure if it is because I'm starting with them not tight enough or if the spring is weak

Your videos sure make me miss farming. One of the most satisfying things in a man's life is a well built fence. 😊

Came for the truckers hitch stayed for fence tutorials haha👍

Many thanks for your common sence approach to your videos. 👍

As always, thank you so much Mr T - your videos are really informative, really clear and such a great resource. Thanks again.
