How to Build a Corner Post for a Barb Wire Fence
Use the posthole digger to dig a hole a minimum of three and a half feet deep and two feet in diameter. Place the post in the hole and add concrete to fill the hole to just below ground level. Before concrete sets, check for proper placement of the post within the concrete and check that the post is level vertically. Corner posts can be made of metal or wood. Metal posts should be a minimum four inches in diameter while wood posts should be a minimum of six inches in diameter.
