[QUOTE="D.R. Cattle, post: 165720, member: 19"] If it were me I would go ahead and leave the metal gates in place. Try to force the cattle onto the structure with the gates closed after you build it. This will test your homemade deal. Also if something ever goes wrong with it you can always just go back to shutting your gates while you repair the problem. The secret is to have about 6 inch spacing in between each section, and make sure there is plenty of space between the top surface and the earth below. Cows, horses and likely dogs will not cross it if done properly. Wouldn't do it if kids run to the mailbox. They could slip a foot into it and break a bone maybe? Not exactly the best thing for people to cross either. If you insist on building it, I'd try to find one that was done properly and check it out before building your own. [/QUOTE]
