Lucky":12bblxxi said:I usually do a pipe double H brace when building fence but was told that if the second H was a 45* kicker instead my braces would be stronger. I really don't know if this is true or but decided to give it a try this time. Well I'm have trouble fitting the kicker does anyone know of a pattern of guide for this or do you just figure it out over time. I could fit and weld a double H pretty quick but these 45* kickers are taking forever and the welds look terrible because of the poor fit.

Keep deer out. We perimeter fenced the property. About 3 or 4 acres. Customer likes to garden but all they've been doing is feeding the deer.

Is the knot in the second pic the correct way to tie off fixed knot fence? I put some up today and used the knot that starts with a loop. I haven't put much fixed knot up and if this will work it looks much easier.
Lucky":20alr4jz said:Thanks for the reply. The lazy loop is what I tied. It looks good but its hard getting the wire started between the pipe and the first wrap. I'd like to see some pics of hand tied knots on fixed knot fence if you have any more. Also wondering if the figure 8 knot is used for joining fixed knot fence or if the crimp splieces are best.

Looks good.
I don't do the little loop before the twist.
It's not necessary. A wrap and twist will hold. In fact the net wire will break before the knot will.
Do you ever put your hinges at a 90 to the fence line? It allows the gate to swing completely back against the fence. On the latch side I like the gate to hit the latch post so you can chain it tight.

Luke. Do you use a tool - Kevin's guys have a small hand tool with a hole that they use to bend the wire into the knots they want? I can see using your hand would not work on all knots not to mention the long term damage on you joints.
