Rubber Belt Fence

[cure]

Well I dont know if you guys remember last spring when I asked the question how to hang this fence but I finally got it done this week. I also got a new camera from the fat man for christmas so I figured I would take some pictures.

We drilled the holes and set the ties last spring just after the frost left the ground

getting started

Playing around with the zoom

My daughter and hired help tieing up the belt

looking north

Just threw this one in because of the clouds. They looked mean but nothing happened

Shouldn't be any calves go through that one Cure. Did you bolt to the posts too?

I like your "Chilcotin Chainlink" :lol:

that come from the big mine or from a salt plant?

Did you bolt to the posts too?

i was wondering that too.

looks like maybe a strong wind from the backside could blow the belts far enough for a critter to get in or out, perhaps not :?

eitherway, that fence should last you awhile.

To answer some questions the belt came off a coal mine. We nail it to the ties with 6 inch spikes the wire we put on is to hopefull keep a cow from getting her her between the rubber and the poles to rub. As for getting over it you don't you walk around . This is just one side of a 1 arce pad that we use to calve out our first calf heifers we put the fence in for a wind break as well catching the morning sun to help the little guys out the rest of the fence is going to 4 square wire and barb.

If you can't walk over it, you should sell the idea of that kind of
fence to the government for a border fence.

Anyhow, it looks like a good deal to me for your use.
