Six-Reel Barbed Wire Roller

Six-Reel Barbed Wire Roller FENCING Miscellaneous 28-2-32 "It lets me roll and unroll up to six strands of barbed wire at a time," says Denis Hanley, Whitney, Texas, about his home-built wire unroller. The "Spool King", as he calls it, lets him string barbed wire for an entire fence in a single pass. He mounted the unit on a small 2-wheel trailer with leaf springs, but by pulling three pins he can move it to his tractor's 3-pt. hitch. The upper four reels all feed wire from the top of the reel, while the lower two reels feed wire from the bottom, which helps keep wires from getting crossed. As the wire is released from the reel, the amount of tension on it can be adjusted by sliding the side plate on the end of each reel in or out and then tightening a "T" bolt.
