Not quite finished yet... I still have to install the electric fence on top....(8 stranded as you can see from the side wall)
The Centre section that you can see through is electrified to 10,000V....
And I live in a decent area ππππ»
edit: Its approx 2.7M high with 'Devil' spikes running along the top...ππ
Good looking gate, I mended this one to keep the dark savages out of my backyard. I swear if another one gets through they're falling into my freezer! Damn neighbor keeps feeding them. Bunch of welfare recipients if you ask me. I yell at them constantly to get a job and help build society but they just stand around expecting hand outs.
It was a picture of a barb-wire fence. There's a thousand acre ranch separating my back yard from several million acres of national forest. I was being a smart-ass about the rancher's black cows. It's 99% white where I live, 7,000 people in my county. First name basis with the sheriffs. Gun range up behind me, nobody here locks up their bicycle and we leave our vehicles running with the keys in the ignition whilst we run into the store.
Bears breaking into my garbage can, moose trying to climb into my tent, 30 degrees below zero come January (not Celsius)... welcome to the Rocky Mountains. I'll show you around if you decide to immigrate. World class fly fishing and snowboarding... kayak terrain park where we swim...
I'd welcome you and every good looking Christian white South African woman you bring with. π
I met a nurse from France who was getting a run around from her immigration lawers trying to milk her for more $. She wrote to "her president " Trump. A week later she got her citizenship!
I live within pissing distance from a big lake and have deer constantly walking through my 1/2 acre of newly planted wheat. I'm happy to not have fences around my house, plus I've built it so it is very energy efficient....8" exterior walls with 2" of foam board over that. All it takes is a small propane heater or wood stove to keep the whole house warm in the winter months.
Sorry for the way you have to live, purkiss. Come to the middle of America and you can get away from that riffraff. May God bless you and your loved ones and stay safe. We need your sage advise and media links to make GAW just a little bit brighter.
Ty, I really appreciate those kind words...ππ»ππ» Who knows what the future will bring...

I'd love to live like that. Sad thing is, as a youngster here in SA, that's how we used to live...My friends and I were always outdoors, down at the little river we had, or on a friend's family farm, we were also 'Sea Scouts' learning to sail on the one of the lakes we have, amongst other 'scoutly things'...We only got TV here in 1976,(I was 14π) and only for 4 hours a day in the first few years...2 hrs English and 2 hrs Afrikaans ππ
We grew up as kids should, Outside learning shit, not Xbox and Playstation all day like now....ππ
On YouTube watch Promethean Action. The two ladies share such great topics......and if you delve into their older vids you will see how the British government, the city of London, and even the British East India Corporation has sowed the seeds of war and sorrow across the planet for the past 400 years. South Africa would not be the horrible mess it is in today if the Dutch and English didn't bring slavery to Africa's shores. I've been reading some books the ladies have recommended and it is eye-opening. Even going back to Newton and Galileo. The Dutch started this mess and the British wanted their piece of the pie. The BEIC was the entity that drove these policies across the world. Please take a few minutes to watch them. They make so much sense and put our current situation into great perspective. God Bless.
That's just the main Entrance at the beginning of the Driveway...You still have to get through another gate, then through the two Boerbulls and only then you get to the entrance ...All windows have bars on them and security gates throughout the house, as well as 6 cameras placed around the property....
Once it's completed, I'll make another post....ππ
I'm 63, set in my ways and love this Country, So....Where do i go and what do i do...I'm not financially stable and live paycheck to paycheck, but I'm no burden to anyone...
Why would i try go to another Country where that's exactly what I'll be... a burden....
It's not in my nature man....ππ»π
Nice built gate! Gotta do what you gotta do to keep safe purkiss. I'm sorry you and others have to live like that. Please keep safe purkiss, we are praying for you π
ππ Ive been living like this for so long, i doubt whether i could ever sleep in a house with no walls, electric fence or security bars on the windows and doors....Its sad really....
I would love that for a change...
Weather here in SA is hard to beat...I wear shorts nearly all year round, even to work...Most people do...πππ
TxππI Do have help....π€£π€£These days, Im more of the 'brains' and really only do the measurements and tack, mostly someone else does the main welding and then ill 'clean' it up...π€π€
I used to live in both central and south America. Steal bars on all windows, electric fences, and reinforced gates are all pretty much mandatory if you want to live an even semi western life inside. This was still true even 35 years ago when I was in South America for the first time. How bad was south Africa 20 or 30 years ago?
Years ago, it had to be on a TV show like 20/20 or 60 minutes, they showed armored cars with running boards that shot flames out to deter anyone getting too close to the vehicle...
Pretty sure it was designed for somewhere in Africa.
Here in South Texas everybody is putting up fences. A few months ago my neighbor's kid was kidnapped and he got to scape jumping out of the kiddnapper's car in movement. The community which is 90% hyspanic and probably 70% illegal is afraid of the shittyfication of this small town by their own people.

South Americans have also lived that way for decades. Sadly.
Only if the person is poor. Those broken bottles are pretty easy to get past.
Ah
Does South America have a meth problem already?
Historically, they didnβt sample the product, it all came here. Things have changed over the last 15 years though, from what I hear.
Yes, I was referring to the rubber mat for glass being insufficient.

This is an article that shows a British East India Corp. flag with 13 red and white stripes. Hmm.... https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/gb-eic.html
Will do?ππ»
It's not off topic at all. Q is all about wanting a better world where evil is vanquished β€οΈ

Very nice. I dont need that in my neighborhood,but I did have decorative bars on my windows when I bought the house,and I'm happy with them.

Wow purkiss80! That sounds like South Africa. I feel for you man.
TY my man....Unfortunately used to it after the Last 25 years...At least we all sleep better at night....πππ»
Just buy a plane ticket and get the hell out.

It looks like youβve set everything up to kick back and relax. Canβt blame you, have fun.
Ty, gotta do what you gotta do.... Make it as difficult as possible to gain access... ππππ»
Nice built gate! Gotta do what you gotta do to keep safe purkiss. I'm sorry you and others have to live like that. Please keep safe purkiss, we are praying for you π
Absolutely, and Thank you GD, appreciate it...πππ»
Not off topic at all; just a reminder that the savages will come, we just don't know when. Thanks for sharing. Looks great.
Thank you..One of my talents besides electric fencing and gate motors...πππ
Chicago is jealous
ππ
Don't tell me.......Miami?.......Birmingham?......Atlanta?.......
ππ Ive been living like this for so long, i doubt whether i could ever sleep in a house with no walls, electric fence or security bars on the windows and doors....Its sad really....
Truly sad. I recommend snowy mountains somewhere. Steep, with icy roads in the winter.
Montana is a beautiful state. That is where my wife & I will go when it's time to exchange my silver for our new freedom dollars.
I would love that for a change... Weather here in SA is hard to beat...I wear shorts nearly all year round, even to work...Most people do...πππ
Stay safe. We need ya. Can't wait to meet you one day. I'll have a storm party after this is over and you will be one of the guest of honor.

What no flame throwers to heat their feet?

Know what I'm referring to? u/purkiss80 ?
That sounds very Mad Max-ish, who knew we'd need that during our lifetime??
Tyππ
That's crazy you have to do this. Nice gate though!!
πππ»
Nice having those openings. You can squirt gas on them and light them up without it getting inside!
Here in South Texas everybody is putting up fences. A few months ago my neighbor's kid was kidnapped and he got to scape jumping out of the kiddnapper's car in movement. The community which is 90% hyspanic and probably 70% illegal is afraid of the shittyfication of this small town by their own people.
You got skills my south African brother
Ty man....π
