If you decide to enclose a summer cottage or other territory with a netting net, then in this case you will need a simple home-made device for tensioning the wire between the fence posts.
Moreover, this tool works on the principle of lever tension, and making it with your own hands is not difficult. This will require improvised materials that can always be found in the workshop or garage.
With the help of a lever device for tensioning the wire between the posts of the fence for mounting the mesh netting, you can quickly pull the wire, while saving time and effort, which is important.
Features of the design of a homemade device
As mentioned earlier, this tool works on the principle of leverage. It has two hinges, one of which (extreme) is welded to the support. The support itself is made of a steel pipe with a diameter of 100 mm.
The second hinge is welded to the handle, and has two jaws. At the same time, note that the jaws are slightly different in length. They are intended for clamping the wire, which will need to be pulled between the posts.
Longer sponges clamp mainly a thin wire. Whereas a pair of short jaws, which are on the other side of the second hinge, is clamped by a metal wire of a larger diameter (5-8 mm).
The handle for this device can be made from a piece of ordinary steel pipe or a round bar - to whom it is more convenient.
