Wire tensioners wanted
« on: February 24, 2009, 09:05:59 am »
Does anyone have any wire strainers for stock fencing that they either want to sell or hire to me, I have got a quantity of stock fence to erect and obviously need to strain it, the prices from the local agriculture suppliers is very expensive.

We bolt through two piece's of wood at one end and then pull with quad/tractor/landrover to tension. Nice, easy  and free  ;D
