Subject: Re: Good way to stretch woven wire fence?



Ripley, Ontario Canada
I have a home made stretcher bar. It is a piece of 2x2x3/8 angle with a piece of 1/2 by 2 flat bar that bolts on with the wire in between. I had to put a few beads of weld on the angle to keep the wire from slipping. I have about 5 1/2 inch bolts holding the 2 pieces together (drill 5/8 holes as the flat bar bends alittle around the wire and it damages the threads on the bolts. Then I have a loop welded on the top and bottom that I put a come a long to the ancher post at top and bottom. If you pull with a tractor, you don't tension the anchor post and it will move when you let the tractor off and your fence is loose. More questions email me
