[QUOTE="novatech, post: 588471, member: 5494"] I am not arguing with you on this because I don't know. I am getting ready to install some myself. But reading the instructions on this site; [url=http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/bse/442-132/442-132.html#L6]http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/bse/442-132/442-132.html#L6[/url] They recommend installing permanent wire tightening devises and to restretch the high tensile twice per year. On another site this statement is made; "Do not drive staples all the way into the wood. Leave about 1/4 inch of clearance between the staple and wood to allow the wire to stay at uniform tension and to easily expand and contact with temperature changes."
