What happens here
This segment shows the process of joining two rolls of high-tensile woven wire using figure-eight knots. The ends of the two wire rolls are brought together, and each horizontal strand is tied off with multiple figure-eight knots. This technique effectively connects the wire rolls without the need for crimp sleeves or gripples, ensuring a continuous and strong fence line. The knots are initially tied loosely, but as the fence is tensioned, the figure-eight knots will tighten down perfectly, creating a clean and secure splice. This is demonstrated on a long stretch of fencing, approximately 1200 feet, emphasizing efficiency and strength.
Goal: Create a strong, continuous fence line by joining two rolls of wire
