Gee I sure feel foolish. Has anyone else had problems with using high tensile fence? I have had two rolls over the years that have snarled and become "rats nest" while I was stringing out the wire. I did one on an old spinning jinny so I figured maybe it was too bent from use or whatever so I bought a new spinning jinny and I had another roll of wire snarl. The new jinny has the rubber washer that is supposed to act as a friction brake but it still snarled. Of course it was freezing cold out so I did not have any patience to "desnarl" so I got another roll and it worked fine. But I have a roll of snarled wire about 50% and I don't want to throw it away but I don't know how to get it usable either. Anyone have any ideas?
