    Seriously, best training in the world! Duct tape will fix anything that WD-40 won't.

    I prefer electric fence wire. 1/2 mile rolls. It’s plated and cleaner that way. Get a few years out of a roll

    Yup, duct tape. It comes in a variety of colors. You'll have to pink it yourself. Click image for larger version.  Name: 20190630_145637.jpg  Views: 194  Size: 20.5 KB  ID: 43521

    I’m waiting for the day Gorilla tape comes in pinked edges and different colors, I’ll never patch fabric again.
