The biggest project may start soon

Has anyone seen either of my bolt cutters??
100 POUND roll....
I'll be unraveling roughly 50ft at a time to attach.

That will keep you busy for awhile. I bought mine as a ~1/4 mile spool at TSC. I know where my bolt cutters are but that won't help you much. Do you have fencing pliers? They should be able to cut that wire.

Small ones.

I found my short handled bolt cutters! 🎉

I didn't measure how many feet I'll need, they were so busy today & were practically whispering...so I just got the big, beefy roll & left.
TSC has smaller rolls, but only on special order. So...2-8wks, depending on them doing their job or needing weekly reminders...🙄

Have fun stringing the wire. Did you get any "tighteners"? I found that mine sagged a bit over time, I guess the posts moved a little.

Didn't realize that I'd need them.
Today, I cut roughly 200ft coils of wire & laid them out along the fence.
Tomorrow, I'll be buying the clamps & tool to attach them

Yup...money well spent...
Anyone have horse burger recipes?...and a chest freezer to borrow?

She's stretching it...!!!
How??
She's out...& will now live permanently in the pen until sold...

The Energizer seems to of broke, too. Have a few more things to test it with & then I'll know if she killed it or what.

....Yup, back in the round pen.
She broke under the fence right next to me...
This was when I was inside for a bit.


She broke in while I was checking every single insulator by hand. Fence is full zap again, but that means little when the horse is now exiled to the pen.
