Okay-
So I originally bought a bunch of heavy duty metal T-posts, 8 footers, for my run. I had looked into some hardware from WedgeLock to help install corner posts, etc etc...
Well, now my husband wants to cover the run with some sort of mesh or chicken wire, or whatever...
I am not sure how I could attach the "mesh roof" of the run to the T-posts. It would be much easier to put in the wooden posts, put in a few support posts in the middle of the run and attach some chicken wire that way, right?
What do you guys use? Metal or wood? I feel like metal will last longer than wood. But I don't see how I could easily attach a covering to it... On the other hand, I really do not want to load up all the t-posts and drive them back to town either
So- what do you guys do? Do you have a covering on your run with t-posts? I just dont want it to end up looking like the beverly hillbillies built it LOL
