Farm Fencing at it's best! Awesome fence building competition with Tornado Wire!
What happens here
Ryan Sloop, a past competition winner with Sloop Fence and Langley Fence, explains the technical specifications for the fence build. This includes using Fixed Knot Tornado High Tensile Wire (13-48-12 specification: 13 horizontal line wires, 48-inch finished height, 12-inch box spacing) with barbed wire on top. Each fence section will be 165 feet long, include a 15-degree turn, and require a splice in the middle. Posts must be spaced at 12 feet or less, and all wire must be stretched to tension.
Goal: Detail the technical requirements and design of the fence to be built in the competition.
