[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1508047, member: 24947"] 1-wrong .. most cases post should be plumb. Of course if you're using wood and staples. Your just doing things how they have always been done. #2-- correct on 30 inch barb. Your dead wrong on top wire. How many cattle go over a net fence??? Do you know cattle?? A whole dam bunch is how many. Also you have deer and limbs..I wouldn't build a fence without a top wire if you payed me. ( There's a reason and it's not physics or geometry, it's cattle.) #3 agreed less than 15 degrees just a well set post is fine. #4... agreed line braces are a waste. #5 agreed. But a mute point when you add a welded diagonal brace. #6 agreed you can space post farther. But why. The cost of adding a steel tpost every 12 is very minimal. The flexible barrier is sales mumbo jumbo. The fixed knot wire ( which I love) pitches higher visibility over square knot. But pitches less post. Horseshyt......put some post in the ground and a barb on top. [/QUOTE]
