Fence Wire Dispenser
"I came up with this idea when I recently got a herd of Nubian goats. The board and barbed wire fences we already had for horses and cattle were not sufficient for the goats and I had to put up a lot of new fencing myself with no help," says Warren O. Drye, Charlotte, N.C.
"I've used it for the last year and it works like a dream on both panel fencing. It'll hold a 220-ft. roll of fencing. You can also slip on rolls of barbed wire, one roll on top of another.
"The rig mounts between the lift arms on the tractor. I used an old drawbar for the pivot point beneath the wire roll. It can be dropped down to the ground to make it easy to slip the roll on. The rest of it was made out of scrap metal. The only parts I bought were 3-pt. hitch pins.
"The wire feeds out between an upright 2 by 4 and a pipe that mounts on one side of the dispenser for tensioning. You can switch the board and pipe to the other side."
