Wire laying gravely take off

I too have a dog fence to install and intend to use my hoe trac to do it. I think that I will use a couler to cut the sod and fashion a knife with a tube in the back to feed the wire. Much like what is used to sidedress corn and beets. Should work.

:Russ, Thank you for your thoughtful reply. You sound as though your determination is going to be backed up with some realistic invention. Could you please specify what those parts are? Thank you for your reply.
:With friendly regards,Nancy.

I use a plow beam from a walk behind plow. I welded side plates and a cultivator tooth to it, a guide behind the beam for the wire, and a shaft on top to hold the spool of wire.
You can get more wire from an electrical supply house.
I think a colter would make it work better.

Good luck,
Dusty

:The comments that you have posted got our attention here at the library. Cody,aka 100# retriever, will be grateful for the relief from his coller. (his family nickname is getting to be "TWANG".) Could you please specify
the equipment you talk about? What is a plow beam, what kind of cultivator tooth did you use,
what do the side plates look like, what is a colter?
We located a source of teflon coated wire in a government surplus sale but there was only one roll available. When we get it out of storage
againe, we'll post the MFG. Thanks Dusty, Dave was impressed and is gathering up mild
steel scraps to patch the three bladded mower too.
We're going to rent a Linclon type welder and try
to weld all of this up on one day. Maggie got chosen for chearleading and cut her hair yeaturday. Dave says shell be all set for welding practice too.
