Hello---hello.... is that an echo I hear? Yeah, it's been a while but I did say was was going to finish this project regardless of a challenge or not. I'm still not ready to put a lot of energy into it, but I am working on it, and will continue to do so until it's done.
I have a plan now, I know where everything is going. This is what it's going to look like:
I've been working on the chain link fence. I was looking for some stiff silver wire I could use for the fence pipes and found some .020" green flower wire at Walmart for less than $1.50. That comes to about 3 1/4" which is good for non-industrial fencing. Silver spray paint adheres nicely to the green stuff and I have plenty to work with. Each section is about 144', and I cut new fencing to give me a 10' high fence. The support poles are on 8' centers which brings it into code. I made a jig to assemble the fencing, just a printed sheet under some wax paper. The first section took about a half-hour to build, the second one about five minutes after I realized there was a better way to do the job.
