Simple, Cheap "Fence Crosser"

Simple, Cheap "Fence Crosser" FENCING Miscellaneous 29-5-16 Kay Blatter, Chinook, Mont., recently contacted FARM SHOW to tell us about a simple fence crossing "gate" that works like a ladder. The idea is to take two wood pallets and saw out every other slat, then place one pallet on each side of the fence, leaning in at an angle. Bolt or wire the top ends of the pallets together. "It's a simple idea that costs almost nothing and really works," says Blatter. "I use these gates between pastures. The gates let me cross the fences without snagging my pants or having to crawl through the wire. I usually place the pallets alongside a fence post to help stabilize them."
