[QUOTE="HOSS, post: 810255, member: 1863"] If you can find some old telephone poles that the utility company has taken down and replaced with new ones...Snatch em' up and use those. Most all of my perimeter fence is made using telephone poles cut into 8' lengths. The big butt ends are put at corners or at gate openings. We set them 3' deep and concrete them in. I have been using 8' treated landscape timbers as cross supports. They are cheap,work great and last forever. I have a couple of the big butted telephon pole ends set in concrete up near a curve in the road. Last year a drunk lost it on the curve and drilled one of the posts dead center. It totaled his truck but the post was barely moved. It just loosened up the tension on the wire and sprang a few of the wire clips off of the T-posts. [/QUOTE]
