[QUOTE="BryanM, post: 1336771, member: 6828"] I was hoping someone could help me with a few fencing question. I was thinking about replacing my pourly built fence corners/bracing and gate posts. The corners are getting pulled out of the ground with five strand tensile and all my gate posts are leaning. (I Hate that look). my high tensile has 4 hot wires and I need to run an electrified fence. Current posts are 5-6in wood posts. So for the questions 1. will schedule 40 steel 2 3/8 pipe be ok to cement in the ground for corners and bracing and for gate bracing? or do I need to go thicker? or bigger? 2. will the steel posts rust quickly in concrete? or how do I prep steel posts from rusting? 3. how do I tye in electrified tensile to steel posts? info you might need to know- clay type soil, fencing in 10 acres, in nw ohio so wett conditions do exsist and cannot find a hydraulic fence post pounder to rent, I have a 3pt auger.
