Hey,
just ran across something about electric fence that was creative and looks decent and almost cheap....
We can only have temporary fences here in my area so electric is the option. Visibility dictates a tape or the heavier (6-8mm) electric rope which can get expensive for anything good enough to carry power any distance. Can get an electric twine (?) pretty cheap that will knock it in the dirt at about any distance we deal with around here but not real visable.
Some creative sole set solid corner posts and made his fence with 5/8 inch plastic banding material (visability and a little strength) then ran the electric twine next to it. Has a fence that is visable, looks decent, and shocks harder than anything other than bare wire, and costs less than using the cheapest tape or rope available.
Have to refence a couple pastures in spring and will see how it works out but the guy swears by his.
