will snap when it begins to soften. A strut or guy means it will stay up very much longer, because it does not rely on the strength of the ground nor the rigidity of the post. An unbraced post can only really be used for very shallow corners of 5 degrees or perhaps 10 at a pinch. I have one fence with a corner post made of a telegraph pole 11 feet long and 10 inches wide, driven 8 feet into the ground – and it still needs struts... I've removed the sentence.

Pete McManus is said to have demonstrated barbed-wire in Alamo Square, San
Antonio, Texas in 1876. The demonstration showing cattle restrained by the new kind of fencing was followed immediately by invitations to the Menger Hotel to place orders. Within 25 years, nearly all of the open range had been

Not in the USA, Not sure the laws back east, but it's actually the only "legal" wire fence allowed in
Montana, technically (rail fences also being legal, but stuff like high tensile smooth wire is a legal gray area here). Which, as a horse owner, drives me nuts -- my neighbor keeps insisting that I

I think what is meant is that if a corner post is driven deeply enough into the ground it does not need bracing. However, the phrase is not only garbled but plain wrong: it would only work in very hard ground, and only while the post retains its full strength. Either it will pull over, or the post

Infantrymen are often trained and inured to the injuries caused by barbed wire. Several soldiers lay across the wire forming a bridge for the rest of the formation to pass over. Often any injury thus incurred is due to the tread of those passing over and not to the wire

I think this sentence needs some amendment: "If an 8" post is * feet in length is driven four feet into the ground the brace post assembly can be omitted." I'm not really sure what is intended here. If it is just my obtuseness, I apologise in advance.

I saw the match in question on PPV and I can say with confidence that JBL did indeed 'test' the barbwire with his forearm (he wasn't actually cut I don't think) with a scared look on his face (probably all kayfabed even though the barbwire was real)

In the western United States we often use
Incense Cedar (pseudosuga taxifolia)for fence post material. In particular, we use the core of the tree and receive the benifit of the toxic quality of the wood to repel inscects.

I think it may be a reference to exceptional behavior at e.g. Cowra and the Golan
