The presenter showcases a red, elongated wedge-type net board, which is crucial for applying tension to the woven wire. He explains how metal wedges slide into slots on the board to grip the net wire. Additionally, a DeWalt cordless drill fitted with a unique bit is presented. This bit is designed to twist specialized post ties around the fence posts, providing a secure attachment point for the wire.

Goal: This step introduces the primary tools for fence installation: a wedge-type net board (strainer board) for tensioning the woven wire, and a specialized drill bit for securing post ties.
