[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 547925, member: 3162"] I built mine out of tube steel and welded wire sheep panel (20 foot by 5 foot tall) to the tube steel. The wire sheep panels are about $38 each. I was at an out of town TSC picking up panels with a friend. I had the G/N behind the truck. Damaged sheep panels, utility panels and cattle panels were all in a pile. I asked the manager what they intended to do with them. He said, "Some sucker will give us $8 a piece for those". I told them to load them all. I weld them down anyway and they are easy to straighten. The utility panels are like sheep panel only they are 16 foot versus 20. I welded the wire cattle panels to gates I build. I have now used them all and would like to find a deal like that again. My little pipe panels are 10 foot long light gauge and I have wired cattle panels to the insides of them when set up temporary for wild cattle on someone else's place. Just drive some T-Posts around the pen once it is set and that worked. For portability, light is good :D It just has to be strong enough to do the job. I keep my eyes out for bargains. Sometimes I don't need something at the moment, but if the price is right, I fork over the nickels to get it. [/QUOTE]
