Looking for the strongest, "uncuttable" chain or cable for securing equipment. Had a string of thefts at several other farms in the area and just trying to be prepared. Any suggestions? Thanks

.45 ACP with 230 gr hollow points.

The secret for security is to delay them beyond the point that it's worth their effort, or expose them to the point they are uncomfortable taking the risk. Nothing is going to stop a dedicated thief, but most are just out for a quick score that they can sell for drugs. A good chain and high quality lock go a long ways in deterring them, but never underestimate the creativity of a crack head. Night lights are their worse enemy, as are dogs and alarms. Motion sensors are alright, but not overly reliable. A light on all night long is one of the best ways to keep thieves away.

No such thing as uncuttable, a battery powered grinder could cut through a chain or cable in no time. Best to disable equipment by taking batteries out and/or adding hidden cut out switches.

Park it on an enclosed pad with two foot sides to keep the couple dozen rattlesnakes inside.
Check to see if your local coroner has a volume discount.

Tell my neighbor that. He had his new truck loaded with his plumbing/electrical equipment stolen from right under the light and in sight of the highway. Night lights give the theif 'light to work by'.
Yes, motion sensors are somewhat unreliable but they do scare away thieves when they come on.
