[QUOTE="lawnviewfarm, post: 811759, member: 7051"] Hi all, We recently acquired more acres (75) that is all fenced with barb wire. Corner posts and bracing all look good. Line posts are all 5' 3-4" wood posts spaced approximately 10-12', no stays. Wire is mostly 5-strand, a few runs are 6-strand of barb wire. For the most part, the fences are in good shape, but there are a few runs where some of the strands are a little too loose for my liking. What would be your favorite method to take up the slack? Home place is all high-tensile electric with those ratchet strainers, so not much experience here maintaining barb wire fences (yet). Thank!! --Marc [/QUOTE]
