  • Very useful book!
Format: Paperback
The book I received was not in the best of shape, but was to be expected, since it was well used. The book delivered the content I was looking for..building a garden fence using commonly obtainable materials. It helps you to think about the possibilities before you make mistakes and before you go through all of the work and your fence is either ugly or fails to hold up. This is not fancy-dancy stuff, just good old fashioned information that our grandfathers probably would have considered everyday working knowledge. Great book to keep and reference for future projects. ... show more

  • Small farm must have - fences are a necessity not an optional luxury
Format: Paperback
This is a pretty handy book to have around the farm. It has great information about all sorts of fences from livestock to a deer repellant type for your vegetable garden. There are very clear diagrams and sketches throughout to visually explain what a specific fence looks like and how to put it together. I especially like the fact that the book shows you how to measure properly and how to correctly wrap/attach different types of wire to different types of posts. There is a nice section on gates and how & why to build a particular design over another based on your needs. ... show more

  • Good book for learning how to design farm fencing solutions.
Format: Paperback
This book is a good overview and is definitely worth reading if you want to engineer a farm fencing solution. I do wish that an updated version was available. You must do a ton of research external to this book with regards to researching all of the manufacturer information and product information that is currently available. Sometimes the book was a little hard to read. I would have appreciated more graphics. The book contents made more sense the more I did external research looking at what manufacturers were recommending. I definitely found a lot of information in this book that is not available elsewhere. While I do wish there was an updated version of it, it is still worthwhile reading. ... show more

  • Exactly what I need
Format: Paperback
Very good book to learn everything about building fences. The book provides the little details the average person doesn't notice or know about fencing, and need to know if one is going to build their own fence. My husband and I are fencing the perimeter 25 acres ourselves to save approx. $20k that a fencer would charge. Granted it will take longer for us to complete, but well worth it in both monetary value and educational value. After all, we will also be the one to make repairs to our fence. ... show more

  • Great fencing book
Format: Paperback
I put up fences before but this book makes it easy and explains everything recommended for each type of fence and what type of fence to use for what breed of animal. I would recommend this book to anyone who is going to put up a fence for animals to have this as a reference.

  • Good Resource
Format: Paperback
I was new to goats and live in a high coyote area. I had never set up pasture fence before and had no idea how to go about it. I wanted to make sure I set up my pasture fence to keep the goats in and the coyotes out. This book gave me everything I needed to know to set the fence up properly, from what my options were, to what materials I would need, to what specialty tools I needed. I had an experienced neighbor there to help keep me on course, but I am confident, that without him, I still would have got it done with this book in hand... it just would have involved a few more rookie mistakes and a little more time. ... show more

  • if you want to build an electric fence then okay..
Format: Paperback
..this book would work for you as it spends three or four ENTIRE chapters on electic fences. other than that if you can dig a hole, put a post in the group and nail a board you will not learn anything.

  • No Pictures
Format: Paperback
I'm glad this product was very affordable buying it used, because it didn't end up being what I was hoping for. I'm a visual learner and along with the extensive descriptions and instructions I was hoping for some photos to show an end result of the different fences. Instead this book has little illustrations. So, it was a little disappointing, but at least this book is very thorough and I'm sure would be a big help to someone other than me. ... show more
