Easy-to-Use Fence Wire Tightener

Easy-to-Use Fence Wire Tightener FENCING Miscellaneous 23-4-6 It takes only a second to put the "Twitcher" on a fence wire with a crank-type applicator that works on any type of wire. Manufactured by a farm family in Australia, the "Twitcher" is a takeoff on an old design that has been around for nearly 100 years. But the originals were made from cast iron and were bulky and difficult to use. The new version is made from stiff 7/16-in. dia. galvanized steel rod formed into an L-shape. You don't have to cut the wire to apply them and they won't damage the wire. They can be tightened at any time, as needed. Once applied, Twitchers can be removed at any time to be reused. They sell for about 40 cents apiece in bulk. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Kriesl & Co. Pty Ltd., 27 Princess Highway, Warragul, Victoria 3820 Australia (fax 03 5623 4483).
