[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1449849, member: 6291"] When things started booming in the Eagle Ford we were laying a lot of pipelines and roads. I would have to threaten to run fence builders off because they would want to argue about how to do things. One example was pre-made H braces. There were a lot of benefits to it. I would tell the fence builders if we were parting a fence for a cattle guard and road to set their H braces before they even cut the fence, or at least leave a bottom wire. They would go thru there spill of how much fence they built, blah, blah, blah. I would give them one shot but I told them if it's jacked up they would fix it on their dime. Sure enough, the cattle guard and braces would all be perfectly straight but most of the time it was not perfectly straight with the existing fence. It woukd have a slight zig-zag. When doing pipeline row the construction gaps are a lot larger than the final gates. I would tell them when we were done they need to splice one wire back from one side to the other to get the straight line to mount the gate. Finally after them re-doing a few on their dime they came around. They still pouted the first couple times but they finally got it right. [/QUOTE]
