Attach Boundary Strainers and Anchor Chains

on the boundary strainers there are several options this is a snap hook end and then we also have a d shackle end and a flat hook end so it's i get asked a lot what's the what's the best one and we've got them all and we use them all just ends up being personal preference i prefer to put your hooks on away from the fence so that if that were to slip it doesn't get hooked on a vertical stay makes them easy to take off [Music] this is called a boundary strainer and then we're using what we call an anchor chain as an extension quite a little bit of wrong stuff going on here but we're gonna make it work because that's what you do when you're a fencer right okay so the critical part here is to make sure that your chain is pretty straight because there's no way to swivel it the way we've got it anchored off and when you snap your chain on there to your boundary strainers those just walk forward like so and then once it's tight we won't have to babysit it quite as much we'll just be able to run right with it one handed there [Music] we'll do something similar on the bottom [Music] just that chain nice and tight and when you're handling any kind of a chain strainer if you just palm it there and squeeze it that opens the jaws up to put them on or take it off either one so the most important thing here luke is to make sure that your chain isn't twisted because this needs to be facing one direction it'll try to either flip over or go go one direction or the other well yeah the the dogs here they won't hit a link square and so they won't latch gotcha and then you've got to get pliers out to try to roll that chain and once that chain's tight it's hard to do so that's why it's important to not have any twist or anything in there and this chain is just straight as an arrow check it out nice [Music]
