    Many.  Wooden fences, cyclone fences, electric fences, and a stone wall

    When I was a youngster, I was with my father playing golf. We came to the last fairway and I noticed a bunch of golf balls lying on the other side of the fence. The ELECTRIC fence. I went after the balls but learned about electric fences instead.

    Yep.  I've built both fences and walls (both real and metaphorical)

  • Yeah, chain-link, my own back in the day.  Got shoddy internet a couple of months ago and they drilled screw-holes into my post & cap so it rains down inside of it good now.  I figure my time of replacing the post, cap, and restretching my fence I'll be billing them for $555, and rising $55 (a few cents over their outrageous monthly prices) every month for storage of their refurbished equipment that looks like the installer's camper truck's back door got left open and the receiver drug down the road a few miles.

    Try putting coffee cans over the top of your fence posts; it'll protect your posts from water damage.

  • Yes, several on a property of 64 acres - steep hills, heavy clay soils, some swampy areas, subtropical, prone to ants and termites.
    Purpose - to keep our animals in and the neighbours' animals out, while allowing free movement of Australian native wildlife.
    Two wooden, one solar-electric, one with a patented foal-safe mesh, one stainless steel, several with prefab zinc-aluminium-coated steel panels, and lastly two with maxi-star posts alternating with concrete posts and strained with high-tension plain wire.
    For our situation here, the last two have proved the best.
