For temporary electric fences

[MillIronQH]

By now most people have figured out that those plastic fence posts aren't worth spitting on. The next time you need to set up a temporary fence instead of driving T-post all the way down the line stick one in the ground about every 50' and put two or three rebar post between them. Use the 1/2 " rebar cut into 5' lengths with the screw up insulators I've got some that are at least 10 years old and been driven into the ground no telling how many times.Z

We just use rebar, with wooden posts at the corners. Works fine as long as the ground isn't too dry. No need for the T posts unless you are in really hilly ground perhaps.

Forgot to mention that the insulators won't fit on anything larger then 1/2".Z

I use t-posts at the corners and maybe every 100' or so. We've always used 3/8" rebar, dunno if 1/2" would be better but definitely heavier to lug around.

I use the push in's and have for some time now, they work pretty good for us.

I use pretty much everything ...rebar , gallagher step-ins, fibreglass,various plastic, garden stakes( even bamboo garden stakes.Last batch I got lasted 3 yrs and cost a whopping .03 cents each).
