@skylerhomesteader: Dillon probably set over 100 posts with this method!! Saves you lots of money! #fencepost #fence #fencebuilding #fencebuilder #homestead
I tried this the other day. Mine are moving a little. I’ve heard packing rock in there and tamp the rock idk.

The power company’s don’t use concrete. They put in really tall poles so why should we use concrete for a small post 🤷🏻♂️I like it

posts do fail. Consider the ease of repair using this method versus one set in concrete. Been there with both methods. I'll stick with tamping.

Concrete also traps moisture in the wood causing it to rot out faster.

I thought concrete helps prevent the posts from rotting faster. Or is it about the same either way?

How do you make sure your posts are straight up and down? I'm very new to this parent I'm going to have to have a fence installed.

Facts. I fenced multiple horse pastures with my dad back in the day and we didn’t use any concrete. Sturdy and easy to repair/replace when needed.

I’ve probably got upward of 300 poles done this way on my farm, only thing I concrete are gates so they don’t slouch over time.

How far did you dig? I built a fence with 4x4x 8 treated posts and tampered them in and it’s sturdy! I dug 2 feet 3 inches

Concern I'd have with more expensive home fences (where concrete is a verrrry small portion of cost relative to cedar & labor) is maintaining perfect plumb & line continuity. Especially if you can't really be super selective about timing soil conditions
