[QUOTE="TXBobcat, post: 753149, member: 94"] I set my H-posts at each end of the run and weld them up, then I stretch the bottom wire from one H-post to the other. This wire is then used as a straight line to drive all the line T-posts. Once the line posts are driven, then the top wire is stretched and clipped to the T-posts. I then look down the top wire line and see if it follows the contour of the ground, and if there are low or high posts I drive them down a little further or pull them up slighty. Then the remaining wires are stretched from top to bottom. One other trick is to bend some welding rods in in a J hook fashion and hang on the top wire every 100 feet or so. Then when streching the next wire you can get it off the ground by putting the wire on the welding rods. [/QUOTE]
