Where can I get me some fencing pants with stripes?
I see these pictures of fencing pants that have like 3 black stripes on the sides... they look pretty dang nice, where can someone by them online? or just who makes them?|||It sounds like you are looking at the Adidas FIE Pants. You can get them via the Blue Gauntlet web site.|||intente el circo
Does invisible fencing work well for cats too?
I am moving to a new neighborhood with my 7 year old indoor/outdoor cat, i am worried that he will get out of the yard and be lost. Do you think the invisible fencing would work for a cat too? Has anyone got it for cats?|||I have a friend whose husband works for Invisible Fence. And YES you can use it for cats! Apparently they make a smaller, lightweight collar for small dogs/puppies and it works just fine for cats. I have never used one but I think it would be a great idea.
However, as someone already mentioned, it might keep your kitty in the yard, but won%26#039;t keep other animals out. It would be best to make your cat an indoor-only cat if at all possible. And definitely keep him in a carrier until you are done moving, because if he gets loose and runs off, he very well may get lost. At least keep him inside for a while after the move so he can get used to the new place. If you decide to let him outside, do so for only a short time, even on a leash if necessary so he can%26#039;t go far.|||You%26#039;re welcome! Moving is such a pain...hope it all goes well.

|||My sister%26#039; has an invisible fence for her dog. Her cat has a collar for the invisible fence and it works for her. I hope it works for you, too.|||If you cat is a smart one.. He or she will find a way home.. It it is a dumb ***.. It%26#039;s likely to be crushed under wheels of a car or truck.. Got to remind you.. All Cats are not the same... Only old cats know how to live in a city..|||no|||I%26#039;ve never heard it being used for cats. My personal opinion would be that it wouldn%26#039;t work for cats.
When you move to a new place with cats, you have to keep them contained inside their living area (ie; inside the house) for a minimum 7 days or they WILL take off and get lost. Cats have to become familiar with their new surroundings and know that this is their new home or they will travel.|||The fencing usually has a caution lable for cat%26#039;s, it should not be used for them!!!!|||Do not use invisible fencing for cats unless you want to harm them. your cat should be indoor/outdoor anyway because of what can happen to him. feral cats, evil people, feral dogs etc. He must stay inside at least 2 weeks to recognize your new home as home or will go back to the old home.
Come on people do some homework here!!!!|||Such containment systems are not safe for cats. Instead, you can do one of the following:
1. If your yard is fenced, you can make it cat-proof with a somple system of t-bars and garden netting. There are internet sites that show you how to do this and also several merchants who sell the system ready to be assembled. Some of these systems are truly inenious! Check them out. Just type %26quot;cat enclosures%26quot; or %26quot;cat fences%26quot; and you%26#039;ll see.
2. Buy or build an outdoor cat enclosure. This is what I chose for my own two out-doors loving felines. They are really indoor cats but they love to go outside once or twice a day. There are racoons, squirrels, other cats and dogs in my area and it simply is not safe to leave my cats outside unattended or unconfined. So I bought a gated chainlink doggie kennel 13ft long x 7ft wide x 7ft high and its accompanying %26quot;roof%26quot; and turned it into a kitty wonderland in the backyard. They love it.
If you%26#039;d rather build one, aain you can et ideas from internedt sites. Just type in %26quot;cat runs%26quot; or %26quot;cat enclosures.%26quot; All that%26#039;s needed are wood beams, chicken wire, staples, nails, muscle and time.|||probably not cause he will jump over it or climb around when they are on the other side it works the same way and he will not want to cross it then|||Hey, well the fence may work, but what about those that can come in the yard and possibly attack your cat? You wont know if there is an agressive male around or female
They have fences that are 6-8 feet high with netting, the tops are curved inward to prevent escape. Its safe four your pet . Or have a enclosure built and attach it to your window. So she can have limited roam while having access to the home.
With collars you may not know the affect on a cat. they may run beyond the fence and the device has a safety shut off after so many seconds.
So go for a enclosed area built or attacked to your window. Just need wood and stronge neting. A safe enviorment|||keep your cat inside at least 30 days so it knows exatley where it lives please do this i didnt and i lost my cat after i week

How high does goat fencing need to be to hold Pygmy goats and baby goats.?
i am going to be buying pygmy goats and baby goats this year and i need to get the fencing up. I wanted to know how high it should be. How many posts i need to hold the fence. Also can goats jump? if so how high. Give me any info you can i need all the help i can get.|||You might check with these folks, they appear to have a lot of info...
http://www.premier1supplies.com/goats/sp...
Hope this helps.
Good Luck!
I plan to start fencing my property next year (economy willing).|||Pygmies can be pretty talented escape artists, but I%26#039;ve had more problems with the little guys sneaking under, rather than over, fencing.
Make sure your fence posts are set at about 5-6%26#039; intervals, and stretch your fencing tight. I have 5%26#039; chain link around the paddock area, and use 4%26#039; welded wire and t-posts around the pasture. I%26#039;ve also reinforced the bottom by driving in rebar %26quot;L%26quot; spikes every few feet. 4 feet seems to hold everyone just fine, but if the fencing isn%26#039;t stretched tight, goats can learn to walk it down and head right over it.
Goats can jump, and they can get over fencing or stall doors that are under 36%26quot; if they try. Make sure any of their climbing equipment or toys are placed well away from the fence.
Kids are often small enough to slip through calf panels, so I recommend looking for fencing that has a small weave.
Hope this answers your fencing questions and good luck with your new herd!|||I use a five foot high metal woven fence with metal posts about every 3 feet or so. Pull the fence very tight when putting it up and tieing it to the posts, and be sure there are no toys, chairs, stools, whatever next to the inside of the fence. They are smart little goats and will jump on anything to get over the fence!|||I use 5 strands of hot polywire spaced 3-4 fingers width apart to contain my goats. I prefer to train them and use that instead of traditional fencing. It wouldn%26#039;t be the first time I%26#039;ve seen an animal attempt to jump/climb a traditional fence and get caught/hung up in the fence. I%26#039;ve never had a problem with kids escaping after they learn that the fence bites.|||i had some once you have to use welded wire fencing make the holes small enough they cant put there heads threw or you wil constantly be out there getting them unstuck there horns get stuck then they cant get there head back in also use a t-post every 10 - 15 feet build a shed so they can get in otta the rain they need something to climb on out in the middle its what comes natural to them preferablysome huge rocks it cant be near the fence or they will jump over if they dont have the rocks a old car with no weels on it will do rocks are important because with out them you will have to trim there hooves. i loved my goats they dont jump very high also they have twinns olmost every time fence should be 4 ft high when they are real small they sound like real baby when they cry|||Premier is a great place for fencing. I recommend them highly.
I don%26#039;t like woven wire fencing for goats because they will walk it down. It might take a few years but they will.
Our fencing is welded wire that we got at an auction with very small holes. Regular cattle panels will allow babies to escape.
You might get by with 4%26quot; fencing if you have true pygmies but I keep my kids behinde at least 5 feet tall fence.

How can I see/view the the Olympic Wrestling and Fencing?
Since channel 7 does not appear to support the Wrestling and Fencing events, how can I view them?|||There has been a tiny bit of fencing coverage, specifically the Women%26#039;s sabre events, and a bit of the men%26#039;s sabre events. The only possibility of what you could see on TV for the rest of the games would be the Men%26#039;s sabre team tonight, after that it%26#039;s pretty much it. I%26#039;m not sure about wrestling TV-wise.
However, nbcolympics.com does offer a great amount of coverage on every sport there. Here are the links to the fencing and wrestling pages:

The NBC website also has event facts, athlete bios, and other useful and interesting information, so I%26#039;d highly recommend checking it out.

Should I add fencing and target practice to my list?
At 19, I%26#039;ve mastered Kung-Fu, Karate, Judo, Jujitsu, Tae-Kwon Do, and Aikido. Should I add fencing, target practice (shooting), or paint-ball to my list? Any of the three?|||With such an extensive background in martial arts I think it would be hard to add more disciplines to your repatoire. It also depends if you%26#039;re just trying to learn everything you can or if you%26#039;re learning all about every form of self defense. Fencing is fun, it%26#039;s hard work and it takes a lot of discipline and some guts just like martial arts. Target shooting is another sport all together but not bad if you plan on having a gun at home for self defense. Paint-ball I find to be fun but there%26#039;s also airsoft if you go that route.
As for adding any of them it%26#039;s up to you really, with fencing I%26#039;d recommend Epee style as it%26#039;s the least flashy and most down to earth form. With target shooting just visit a gunrange in your hometown for more details on the safety, training and equipment you%26#039;ll need. With paint-ball...I%26#039;m not an expert but there%26#039;s plenty of centers around the States.

A rancher has 800 feet of fencing to put around a rectangular field ?
A rancher has 800 feet of fencing to put around a rectangular field and then subdivide the field into 3 identical smaller rectangular plots by placing two fences parallel to one of the field%26#039;s shorter sides. Find the dimensions that maximize the enclosed area.
|||Length of shorter side: x
Length of longer side: y
We know that:
2y+4x=800
A=y*x=(400-2x)*x=400x-2x^2
To find the maximum:
A%26#039;=400-4x=0
x=100
y=400-2x=200|||2x+4(x/2)=800
so the two long sides would equal 100 and the two shorter sides would equal 100. Then the two dividing fences in between to give three smaler rectangular plots would also equal 100. So you have four 100 sides and two 200 sides which equals 800

I might take up a fencing class an i would like to know Is fencing painful?
So are the blades in fencing sharp and pointy? do they hurt to get stabbed by? do they cut?|||Fencing is a very safe sport. None of the weapons are sharp, all of them are blunt. And, when you fence, you MUST wear the proper attire or your instructor will not let you near a sword.
There is a jacket, with is either made out of a very thick nylon or a kevlar material. That%26#039;s the stuff they make bullet-proof vests out of. Then, there is the plastron, which is a half jacket that goes under the first jacket to protect your blade arm further. You must wear knickers (pants that go to the knee) or full pants. There is a glove that goes over your sleeve so that the blade of your opponent%26#039;s weapon cannot reach your arm and there is the mask (the most important piece).
-Men are advised to wear a cup (yes, that%26#039;s target area in foil), and women are required to wear chest protectors-
The worst injury that I have ever received during my fencing experience is a metal splinter because I grabbed my weapon out of its bag too quickly.
The worst injury I have ever witnessed is a twisted ankle...
The worst you will feel is MAYBE a bit of a sting, and that is only if the people hit hard...and if you are in a beginning class, they will be more worried about getting hit than hitting you.
I wish you the best of luck. Fencing is a blast! I hope you take the class. Maybe we%26#039;ll end up competing in a tournament together one day...|||You should totally take up fencing. No the blades are not pointy. There is a rubber tip on the end of a foil, which is the weapon you will probably start out on, and you wear a mask that protects your face and a glove for your hand and a padded jacket so it doesn%26#039;t hurt at all.

Also, fencing swords aren%26#039;t particualrly desined to cut so you sould be fine.
There is a jacket, with is either made out of a very thick nylon or a kevlar material. That%26#039;s the stuff they make bullet-proof vests out of. Then, there is the plastron, which is a half jacket that goes under the first jacket to protect your blade arm further. You must wear knickers (pants that go to the knee) or full pants. There is a glove that goes over your sleeve so that the blade of your opponent%26#039;s weapon cannot reach your arm and there is the mask (the most important piece).
-Men are advised to wear a cup (yes, that%26#039;s target area in foil), and women are required to wear chest protectors-
The worst injury that I have ever received during my fencing experience is a metal splinter because I grabbed my weapon out of its bag too quickly.
The worst injury I have ever witnessed is a twisted ankle...
The worst you will feel is MAYBE a bit of a sting, and that is only if the people hit hard...and if you are in a beginning class, they will be more worried about getting hit than hitting you.
I wish you the best of luck. Fencing is a blast! I hope you take the class. Maybe we%26#039;ll end up competing in a tournament together one day...|||You should totally take up fencing. No the blades are not pointy. There is a rubber tip on the end of a foil, which is the weapon you will probably start out on, and you wear a mask that protects your face and a glove for your hand and a padded jacket so it doesn%26#039;t hurt at all.

Anyone tell me the law regarding partition fencing?
Is there any way fencing should be facing, meaning, do the slats have to be facing towards neighbouring garden? In other words can one put the %26quot;nice side%26quot; facing towards the owner of the fence?, some had said that the law says that the posts had to not face towards the person errecting the fence. Is this a wind up or genuine info, know this is where I!ll get the right answer. This is to save having to reverse sides if errected incorrectly. Thanx for help, please.|||If you have an HOA odds are the %26quot;nice%26quot; side of the fence has to face out and the posts be inside the fence along with the %26quot;ugly%26quot; side. Why would you want to face the %26quot;ugly%26quot; side out? Erect the fence with the attractive side out. If you dont odds are people will assume you had no idea what you were doing when you put it up. We all dont like our neighbors but if you put the ugly side out it makes your own property unattractive|||Almost everywhere, the law is nice side to the neighbor

I%26#039;m looking for a professional company that supply and fit, gates and fencing. I%26#039;d like a company that phone back when they promise to and turn up when they say they will.

a rectangular garden is to be enclosed on three sides by fencing; the fourth side is the side of a barn. you have $750 to spend and the appropriate fencing costs $2.75 per linear foot. what are the dimensions of the largest garden that you can enlose and how much will it cost?|||I can tell this is math homework. No gardener would put their stuff up against a barn... nothing would grow in shade like that.
$750 / 3 = $250 each of the 3 sides
$250 = 90.91
Therefore you should make each of the three sides 90 feet, for a cost of $742.50.
Unless you want to go down to the mm.
But now it%26#039;s not rectangular, it%26#039;s a square.
You also never said how wide the barn was.... there is a possibility that you could make the fence too wide and there would be a gap of which it is impossible to know about with this question.|||Math homework, definitely math homework.
The largest area (for a given length of fence, i.e. a max cost of fence) will be surrounded by a fence that%26#039;s twice as long (along the barn side), as it is deep.
Depending upon what grade you are in will determine how you decide this. If you have differential calculus, you should know min-max applications. Otherwise, you%26#039;ll have to make a table and look for the trend toward the largest area value. My kids had this in fifth grade, it%26#039;s a well-known problem.

How much does Sabre fencing equipment cost?
I%26#039;m gonna start fencing and I want to know how much it csts. not the lessons but the material.|||For a basic kit to start fencing sabre, you need a mask, jacket, gauntlet, and a practice sabre.

Many clubs will provide some or all equipment or sell new or used equipment for a reasonable amount. You might also qualify for club discounts at fencing equipment retailers. Check with your coach.
You%26#039;ll need either fencing knickers ($40-$50) and knee socks or long athletic pants. Court shoes, especially indoor soccer shoes, work well.
When you graduate from practice fencing to bouting with electronic scoring equipment, you%26#039;ll need additional equipment. An electric mask, mask cords (2), body cords (2), cuff, lame and electric weapons (2) will run between $250 and $300.|||Try here

In the sport of fencing, why is there a cable attached to the back of each opponent?
I do not understand fencing, just curious specifically about the cable pulley system that pulls the competitor back.|||It is so that the scoring can be done electronically.
There is a cord that plugs into the fencer%26#039;s weapon, that goes under their jacket and out the bottom. The cord then connects to an outer jacket (for foil and sabre, not epee) and to a plug at the end of the strip. This way, if the fencer hits their opponent on target area (the part covered by the outer jacket) a colored light will go off, and if the fencer hits off target a white light will go off.
For epee the whole body is target, so the tip of the weapon has a depression tip, if it hits the opponent at a certain amount of pressure, the light will go off.|||Just a comment to your follow up - the cable doesn%26#039;t yank the fencer back. The cable is part of the %26quot;reel%26quot; that is spring loaded. The reel just keeps the cable out of the way so that the fencer doesn%26#039;t trip over it. Report Abuse

Where are the fencing training areas in the Philippines?
Are there any government run or public training areas for fencers in the Philippines aside from the Philsports Complex (ULTRA) fencing hall? If none, I suppose private training areas will do. This is for a research paper.|||Hello Rodolfo !
Forgive me but your question is sort of hard to sort out. Were you looking for European Fencing or Japanese Fenseing...etc as there are many variants of styles.
While waiting for others to post a more specific and accurate contact information in regards your search.
In the meantime, If you%26#039;re serious enough I suggest the following step for you to take.
First thing you have to do is check your local yellow pages or phone book, look for the all the available schools your area has to offer.
If you%26#039;re not in the area yet, call someone you know in the local area to scan, mail or list the martial arts section on the yellow page and have them sent to you.
The reason I always suggest to look in the phone book first is due to the fact you%26#039;re pretty much searching for a school that are in your local area. You may even find one a few blocks down from you. Using the phone book as your first step will make your search faster and easier because all the information such address and phone number are available for you right there.
Secondly, if you are not having any success with this type search, After all the vigorous research on styles and decided on a particular style of martial arts. Try contacting a legitimate organization of that particular style on the internet and ask if they can refer schools or certified instructors available in your local area.
Please note that there are good number of good instructors that do not advertise or teach for commercial purpose thus you won%26#039;t see them advertise anywhere. They are mostly located in private gyms or community centers. Just them a call and even if they don%26#039;t have a program ask to see who they can refer you to.
Try all styles or any other styles that you have already decided upon. Call the schools in your area to see if they are offering free lessons or find out if they have any and how much is introductory classes for a month.
Taking ONE trial classes just does not cut it because at that moment you%26#039;re excited and often times this excitement often leads you to making a wrong decision such signing a long term contract ( Gasp ! Never ever sign a contract !) or other bad decisions.
One last thing, I don%26#039;t mean to sound abrasive, but If the above suggestion is too much work for you, then the probability of you being serious in joining a martial arts school is less than zero. I am sorry to say this but, I am sincere in helping you in your quest, but you have to do your part.
Hope this helps and good luck with your search.

How do you install vinyl fencing at angles other than 90 degrees?
I need to put a panel up at an angle greater than 90 degrees. As far as I know, there are no such kits available. I bought the fencing from Home Depot and they tried to give me some joist hangers and told me to bend them?? Any suggestions welcome.|||There are several ways you can do this...besides bending some joist hangers, hehehe... Not knowing your comfort level with power tools, or what kind you have access to, here are 3 fairly easy methods of creating just about any angle you need for fencing.
First trick that comes to mind, is to shave the corner post to the angle you need. (Tablesaw, circular saw, or reciprocating saw)
Second trick is to %26#039;build%26#039; a corner post to the angle you need...this is particularly handy, if you have a very large angle. (Tablesaw, and miter saw) You would want to use treated lumber, prime it with a good oild base primer (Kilz would work well), and then paint it to match... you would also want to %26#039;cap%26#039; your post.
Third trick is to cut the vinyl rails at the angle you need (and the steel support, if any), and apply trim to help cover any gaps. This one will work, if you do not have to go too much farther than 90 degrees. (Recriprocating saw, and miter saw)
Good Luck!|||sorry

Is the oak from an old dining room table when cut to size suitable for outdoor fencing?
New oak boards are so expensive I thought I might cut and plane the oak from two old tables to use as fencing boards. The question is %26quot;Will they stand up to the weather without twisting?%26quot;.|||It%26#039;s a bit hard to say. If the tables have been indoors, and stabilized to a dry environment, it%26#039;s possible that the wood could warp when exposed to weather, especially after being cut down to smaller sizes. It has to do with how well they%26#039;re sealed and painted after cutting them down. I have to add that oak is not all that great as an %26quot;outdoor%26quot; wood, compared to cedar, teak or redwood. I understand about the cost, and if it%26#039;s free, it%26#039;s worth it, but it will take more maintenance to make oak last compared to others.|||Just an idea.... you might be further ahead to sell the tables and use that money to buy treated lumber that would last longer.|||Well with my tongue firmly in my cheek I have seen some gardens in Coxhoe fenced off with a row of old doors, and some even have the knobs still on!!|||Sure if they can be cut to size.

Best fencing option for large yard for shih tzu?
I want to put in a doggy door and allow my pet access to outdoors at times. trying to decide between fencing a large yard which would be very costly, or a small area around a patio, picket fence or privacy or chain link. neighbors on two sides of yard only. red brick house.|||The best bet for the dog is a wooden privacy fence which provides a lot of room to run and no visual distractions that might mar the fun experience of having the whole back yard to romp in. (Also much less likely to get tangled in trying to dig underneath.)|||Check on line for small kennel run, like a 10X20 or larger, they will be chain link type fencing, if you find one it is a good idea to bury chicken wire several inches under the ground and attach it to the bottom of the fence so your treasured pooch can%26#039;t dig out.

How do i get a T-Post used for fencing out of the ground>?
I have several T-Posts that have shifted to a wrong angle...i am looking for a tool to help me get the T-Posts out without digging up the ground so i can put them back in in the correct angle to fix the fencing around the land...|||Use a old cat bumper jack if you can not pull them by hand. Attach a arope to the post and tie it to the jack.|||You can also use a long lever to ease them out. Clamp a block of wood firmly to the T-pots about 1ft. off the ground; position another block or blocks about 6%26quot; away from the post to act as a fulcrum; then placing you lever tip under the wood block clamped to the post and resting on the fulcrum pile, push down on the end. Post should ease out of the ground - no problem. If you are straining, perhaps your lever isn%26#039;t long enough, and you may need extra block to build up the fulcrum level. Sounds complicated , but very easy in practise. Best of luck.|||Use a jack to get the t-post out of the ground. Wrap a heavy duty chain around the jack and the knobs on the sides of the t-post, binding the chain as you jack and it will pull the post right out of the ground.|||we use a car jack around our place. Wrap some heavy duty wire around the post, using the nubs to keep the wire in place, and the other end of the wire around the head of the jack and start pumping.

How good of an exercise is fencing?
i%26#039;m thinking of doing a free summer clinic(i%26#039;ve never fenced before) and was just curious,is fencing a good exercise? does it work out any muscles?|||The quality of fencing as an exercise really depends how much effort you put into it. In the years that I have fenced and coached, I have seen casual fencers devote minimal effort and barely break a sweat and highly competitive individuals work to exhaustion. If you have never fenced before, you will be working out muscles that aren%26#039;t typically heavily strained in other aerobic sports such as running, soccer, etc; although already being physically fit helps tremendously.
Years ago, in high school, I ran cross-country and played varsity soccer. I was far more exhausted after my first real fencing bout than a typical work-out for those sports.
Fencing works heavily on leg and torso muscle groups and does not require heavy upper body strength. Finesse and dexterity are typically more important.
Hope this helps.|||Yeah, you%26#039;ll get tired, and it%26#039;s a pretty good workout if you are doing it right.|||Fencing is an anaerobic activity. It%26#039;s a bit like football or boxing. The activity is strenuous for periods, with breaks in between. It burns quite a few calories: the last tournament I participated in, I wore my heart monitor and it recorded 2100 calories in 3 hours. The legs are the primary working group - quads/calfs/glutes. It is the mental aspect of fencing that often takes hold of individuals and involves them more than they were originally expecting - providing a form of exercise that is never boring - hence more likely to be undertaken.

How can I prepare my self for a new fencing season ?
I want to be in my best shape (or close to that) when starting this new fencing season. Does any one have fitness ex. that I can do to improve my endurance ? I already run and have a program but it%26#039;s not enough. Thanks!|||Stairs and hills are what do the most good for me for fencing. It%26#039;s a shorter but intense workout that doesn%26#039;t take too much time away from fencing-related training, but still helps with the strength and endurance. You can get so much done in half an hour. Running down the stairs makes your feet move faster--it%26#039;s the best exercise other than fencing for fencing in my opinion, running up stairs makes you stronger and running down makes you faster.
If you have a mirror and think you can practice lunges without a coach (and without picking up bad habits), getting quicker is always good practice. The thing I like to concentrate on most before a season is quick tight parries and working on good ways to combine one parry with another (I fence foil). It is also good to work on footwork, but I find it hard to do any good work on footwork without a training partner or coach.|||um, I suppose I would have to say just repetition of all the footwork and tactics, and conditioning...
When you run, you could add other exercises: like %26quot;high knees%26quot; or %26quot;karaoke%26quot; or %26quot;butt kicks%26quot;
Oh! Lunging with a medicine ball might help...?

How effective is invisible dog fencing?

Just a precaution, you will keep your dogs in...but you won%26#039;t keep the wildlife out, so if you have coyote or other predators in the area I would not leave your dog vulnerable and unattended, restricted by the wireless fence.

Typically, dogs with thick coats don%26#039;t feel the shock enough to be deterred. The fence will tell you the requirements for age and size on the packaging.|||This type of fencing only works on certain breeds. Dogs like greyhounds, whippets, huskies run too fast and are out of range before the fence activates. The packaging should tell you what breeds they recommend using it for, and which breeds are not suited to it.|||Works great unless it is a HIGH STRUNG DOG like a border collie
a dog thats gotta get to what it sees, then ours takes the shock to go out but wont take the shock to come back, another bad point is it keeps YOUR dog in, it does NOT KEEP OTHER DOGS OUT
What is the name of the music score channel 7 is using during it's fencing promo on the olympics coverage?
Channel 7 has been showing a short promo on fencing during it%26#039;s Olympics Coverage in the evenings. Does any body know the musical score used in the background?|||I don%26#039;t know what the music is. But I know that it is false advertising. I%26#039;ve yet to see any coverage of the fencing at all.
Chain link fencing for dog kennel- can you buy and attach bottom pipe separatley?
Looking for a dog kennel, had an offer for some cheap chain link fencing BUT it has no %26#039;pole%26#039; on the bottom, concerned dogs would just push it out. anything you can buy separately to keep it solid along the bottom to keep dogs from pushing it out?|||You can buy galvanized pipe, but it should be put on with proper fixtures on the bottom of the upright, you can also stretch air line cable along the bottom weaving it in and out every two foot or so, either way if your dogs like to dig they can still get out, probably the cheapest and simplest solution is to buy chicken wire and dig a trench under the fence to the inside of the run and bury it, you can wire a foot or so of the chicken wire to the bottom of the fence then take it thru the bottom on the fence at least two foot and bury....depending on what size run you are putting in it might be easier to put a regular kennel run up, if you want to do it right check with Crest Line Kennel Runs..|||I am not sure. I had bought some tool room caging and it works great. It is welded chain link that is welded to a frame they measure 5%26#039; x 9%26#039; and they bolt together.|||yes you%26#039;re right. without the bottom rail for it to attach to the dogs will just push their way out of the bottom. you can get the parts you need at lowes or home depot. you need to get two pieces that attach to the corner poles and then the rail goes into the socket on that. you can also get the wirelike ties that fastens it to the rail. fasten every couple of feet to make sure it is good and tight. any slack will allow them to get out.|||Ya what Bert said, that it|||Sure. You would need to by chain link top rail pipe, top rail pockets and clamps. You then cut the top rail pipe to fit between your upright posts and clamp in place. It should look just like your top rail, but be on the bottom of the fence. Then wire-tie the chain link fabric to the bottom just like the top.
Bert|||sure , try lowes, or your local lumber yard,
if you attach ,a new pipe, , use wire to attach the chain link,
and place stones, i n the inside of the kennal, to prevent ,the dog from digging thru|||Yes, you can buy it all seperately, either at fencing supply stores or hardware stores.
The actual chain link is the inexpensive part. The posts, connectors and rails are all seperate purchases and the most expensive portion.
The least expensive option is to buy all seperately, at a Lowe%26#039;s type of store and assemble it yourself.

What does it cost to field a NCAA fencing team?
Hi, I am trying to figure out what it takes to revive a NCAA fencing program from one of the schools that got the varsity removed back in the 90%26#039;s.
Any idea what it costs to field a team?|||I have no idea, but here%26#039;s how you can find out. Find a school with a varsity fencing program and ask the athletic director. Make sure to inquire about transportation costs for tournments.
Another possibility is to partner with a local fencing club. That happens with all the collegiate crew (rowing) in the DC area.
Good luck!

Where can I go too buy some fencing to go around my flower garden for cheap?
I need to buy some fencing to go around my flower garden. I don%26#039;t need much and dont have a lot of money. I need something that is cheap. Please help.|||HOME DEPOT|||Chicken wire. If you%26#039;re just trying to keep dog or cats from digging in there, you could even go for the plastic stuff, but if you%26#039;re worried about rabbits, then you probably want wire. It%26#039;s cheapest to buy it at feed stores, but if you don%26#039;t have any of those in your area, box stores like Lowes and Home Depot carry rolls of it, as well as stakes to anchor it in.|||Try Here:
