[QUOTE="damengineer, post: 1692777, member: 24810"] About 35 years ago I worked a gov't job and had to use some sick leave or lose it. I called in and started to tie up the rest of the Gaucho wire we had stretched over the weekend. I was using a screwdriver and the wire ties supplied with the T posts, tieing the top wire over hogwire. The wire borke and a barb hung in my arm above my elbow. it jerked me back and luckily I had tied the post behind me. The wire had twisted and wrapped in my arm at least 4 times. Luckily it was loose flesh, but I had to cut the wire with my pliers and then unwrap my arm flesh from it. I only has a small puncture wound. However, if the post behind me had not been tied, I would have had a lot of torn up flesh. I have never used Gaucho again.. [/QUOTE]
