[QUOTE="HOSS, post: 753974, member: 1863"] calman, I am in the process of putting in cross fencing myself. I started digging my first hole for the gate-post and BINGO I hit my water line. Let me tell you that an 1.5" line can pump out alot of water in the time it takes to get off the tractor, run 400 feet to the access gate and then run 1200' down the drive to shut off the water valve. I still cant figure out why the water line didn't cross my mind. Anyway after a couple trips to THD and some serious digging in the mud I got it repaired. I drilled and set a few posts in concrete but the ground was so hard on the upper end I waited for rain which we got yesterday. I'll start back tomorrow evening. Like you said T-Posts and barb wire are worth gold bullion these days. I decided to do this cross fence in high tensile (5 strand) and wire two of them hot. With high tesile I don't need as many T-Posts. I'll throw some tensioners on it and fire it up. [/QUOTE]
