by goly we're going to do that we need to start digging our posts first um an average trailer you got to consider is probably about 6 ft wide if it's like a utility trailer no like 7 ft wide an average camper Toby High camper is about 8 ft who knows how big or a monstrosity you want to get after that so we're going to stay ins theide of uh give it like a 10ft trailer wide thing so if it's an 8ft camper they have a foot on each side the goal here is to make sure this thing doesn't sag at all and that's our number one goal so we could go towards like 12 ft give it even more room but you have more potential of sagg and we're avoiding sagage 10 ft's the number I'm going to try to line up with this line here as my first post and because we have an old AC unit here our next post is going to be somewhere here let's start [Music] digging this is just my luck there's a concrete form already underneath here looks like where the old fence used to be so that means our job is going to be even harder we have to dig out the old one to put the new one in nothing can go easy around here [Music] this is ridiculous there's one right here as well I'm not digging these up I think what I'm just going to do is move it one foot forward in front which means it's just going to butt up right here as opposed to here yeah it is what it is I don't really care that much for it but that kind of blows a little bit just a little bit [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
