[QUOTE="I luv herfrds, post: 811847, member: 5917"] Just pull the staples out far enough for the barbs to slide through. Get a fence stretcher and tighten it up at a corner post. Re loop the wire around that post. Put the staples back in. Check the wire looking for thin places. If you find them my best suggestion is replace that area. If it is not thin then no problems. Do not use a fencing tool to twist the wire to tighten it. FIL used to do that. It rusts out quickly and breaks quicker. Don't ask me how many of those places we fixed over the years. :roll: [/QUOTE]
