Source of fencing wire please
I need to erect a rabbit proof fence. No problem sourcing the netting
on the net :-). However I am having trouble finding a source for wire on the net. I would prefer 2.64mm spring steel though 4mm mild steel would be a suitable alternative. I can get the mild steel one from a local Agricultural Merchants if necessary. Thanks -- Please do not reply to this Email address, as all Emails are deleted before opened. |

Thanks eBay has a lot of fences passing stuff off. Had a look there, can't find any steel wire. Plenty of barbed wire though! -- Please do not reply to this Email address, as all Emails are deleted before opened. |

Why 2.64mm? 12swg Possibly better known as "high tensile" fencing wire than "spring steel" at agricultural merchants. Do CWG stock it? There are branches around the country, and a dysfunctional web site. -- Kevin Poole **Use current month and year to reply (e.g. )*** Car Transport by Tiltbed Trailer - based near Derby |

Thanks one and all. -- Please do not reply to this Email address, as all Emails are deleted before opened. |
