"Quick And Easy" Fence Repair Tool
The "Tensionizer" consists of two 20-in. long steel arms that spread apart at a fulcrum on one end. One arm is fitted with a 3/8-in. dia. pin on the end.
To use, you run the splice around the pin, which acts as a ratchet, then through the tool's wire holder, squeezing the handles to ratchet the wire around the break and pull it tight. You then hold the wire loop with a disc welded in the V between the handles to keep wire from twisting while you wrap it around the splice.
The whole operation takes only a minute or two, says Haldemann.
Sells for $37.50 plus $5 S&H. Allow three to 10 weeks for delivery.
