We drive the pipe posts instead of digging a hole and having to backfill. At least in our dirt, they last and last. We have never felt the need to use concrete either. I pulled out several thousand feet of that type of pipe fence at a closed feedlot years ago. About half was concreted in place, and half was directly driven in the ground. It was all just as stout and straight.
I have installed some continuous fence panels around my lots and I did not use a toprail. They work great by themselves.
If you are going through a wooded area, I always use a top rail and it's worth it to keep trees and limbs off the fence.
I'd agree. Sure wouldn't mess with digging a hole, pouring concrete or adding a top rail.
But he is in Iowa, so probably doesn't have the orange tiger $h!+ clay like we do in Misery.
Local fence builder told me once, who needs concrete when we have the best tamping/packing material around - clay!!!
What do you two fine fellers use for drivers? Skid steer drivers seem to be expensive. Thanks
Do's and Dont's buying oil pipe for fence around the acreage.
