Portable "Wire Recycler" For Electric Fences

Portable "Wire Recycler" For Electric Fences FENCING Tools 23-1-7 Rolling or unrolling electric fence wire can be a frustrating job because the wire doesn't always stay put where you want it. A Minnesota company says its new "wire recycler" does the job better than anything on the market. The "Wire Recycler" consists of a steel frame that mounts on a stand at the bottom and has a collapsible, circular wire holder on top. To roll or unroll the wire you simply turn a lever that's connected a shaft that runs through the wire holder. Once the wire has been completely rolled up, you tie the roll of wire together in a few spots, then pull a pin to collapse the unit so you can remove the roll. "It works fast and makes it easy to run wire across pasture or a field of harvested corn stalks," says Eric Heil. "One time I was able to roll up a quarter mile of wire in only nine minutes. It can also be used with high tensile and barbed wire. We've had the machine for many years in the family and are now trying to market it." Sells for $199 including S&H.
