Soundguy, this sounds like a really good idea. Can you elaborate a little on this description? I'm not sure what you mean by "drill a hole thru 1 end for the wire to pass thru". I mean, it's pipe, right? It is by definition, a hole from one end to the other. Do you mean drill a hole from side-to-side through the pipe? I'm having a hard time picturing how this then gets mounted on the post.Soundguy said:If you run a top hot wire.. the easy and cheap way is to buy a few 10' sections of cheap plastic 1/2" pvc, cut it into 1' sections, and drill a hole thru 1 end for the wire to pass thru, and then put a couple zip ties on the body near the other end.. say... 4" apart and zip tie it to the fence, and drill another couple holes and nail to the fence posts.. Wqy cheaper than buying those expensive little plastic insulators...
If you have a digital camera, can you post a photo of an insulator that you have mounted in this way?
