How do you attach poultry netting to you post?

How do you attach field wire to T-post?

What do you use to attach chicken wire to a fence?
Attach the chicken wire to a good starting point in your frame or fence. To attach it to wood, use the staple gun or fencing staples and run them along the edge of the chicken wire, about every 6 inches.
What do you attach chicken wire with?
Use a hand stapler or upholstery stapler to secure the chicken wire to the back of the frame. Apply as many staples as needed, making sure to get a staple in each corner and two on each side at minimum.
How do you attach wire mesh to wood?
Hold the wire mesh in place, or have a friend hold it for you, and then press an industrial staple gun — with staples slightly smaller than the depth of your frame — onto the top corner of the mesh. Pull the trigger and insert a staple into the top left corner, and then the top right corner.
What’s the best way to attach chicken wire to a post?
The ends of the wires are sharp. Line the roll of chicken wire up with a corner post, if there is one, so the bottom 6 to 12 inches can slip into the trench and so the top horizontal wire is in line with a tab on a metal T-post, if you are using one.
How do you attach a wire clip to a T post?
An inexpensive T post wire clip bender can make the wire clip installation process easier. With the wire clip bender, the order is reversed. Slide the end of the bender tool through the loop side of the wire clip. Bend the wire clip one full turn around the fence wire that is being secured, then remove the tool.
How do you install a wire clip on a fence?
You can install wire clips with a sturdy pair of fencing pliers, but it will take a deal of hand strength. Begin by setting the wire clip in place just above one of the studs in the T post. Swivel the clip to slide the hooked end over the fence wire.
How do you bend a T post wire?
Slide the hole of the T post clip bending tool onto the hooked end of the wire clip, and bend it one full turn around the wire. Since the hook end is shorter than the loop end, you will only be able to perform this step once. Repeat both processes at each fastening point along the entire line of fencing.
