STRETCHING HIGH TENSILE WOVEN WIRE FARM FENCING INSTALLATION TIPS AND TRICKS!
What happens here
Unroll the fixed knot fence wire along the designated fence line. Attach one end of the fence to a terminal end post using a fence stretcher, also known as a 'come-along' or 'gripple tool' with chains. This tool allows for the application of significant tension. The come-along is secured to the end post with a chain, and its gripping mechanism attaches to the fence wire.
Goal: Securely attach the fence wire to an end post and prepare for tensioning.
