Interesting video. We now have 4 large young geese in our garden and I need to build them a fenced pen. Have not done anything like this before so it will an experiment - see you have all the tools which I don't have, so not sure how successful it is going to be!

We also don't always have the proper tools for the jobs we are doing and that makes it difficult. You will probably need a t-post driver for the fence posts. I do not think a sledge hammer would work to drive them in.

How many acres do you have?

We have just about 4 acres.

OOPPSSS I thoguht this was a fencing video as in how to learn to fence your opponents with sabres(swords) and practice on how to do it.......sorry to bother you...

You need a pair of real fencing pliers. They make fencing MUCH easier!

Your children (or anyone) using the knife for debarking should be wearing a leather apron. It only takes one slip for a serrious laceration.

If you are using those posts for fencing, char the bottom of them, as deep as you are going to plant, plus six inches. Chared wood does not rot. Make a fire in a burn barrel to char the posts.
