Barb wire fence

Post by General Blasto » Sun Nov 18, 2007 9:53 pm

A while back I talked about where to find barbed wire and some folks suggested I look in a couple places. After a bit of looking, I was dismayed with what I saw and that the "barbs" on the wire were actually kinks in the wire. So I went about to make my own barbed wire and have now started a fence for my camp ;) To this day I have only completed one section of the fence :roll: mostly due to lack of time and the distraction of building custom soldiers. Well a good kick in the rear is what I've done this weekend and strung some of the barb wire sections between two poles. Let me tell you, this is labor intensive :shock: Here a few of the troops pose with the new section of fence.

Hard to see, but let's get a closer view :)

Just ask that guy, he'll tell you how much fun it is to get pricked by that stuff and believe me, it's just like the 1:1 stuff, sharp and painful :twisted:

Great looking barbed wire :D However, please say that you're making an Allied POW camp and not the other kind the Germans were known for :wink:

It is a supply and divisional training camp, not one of those SS death camps ;) Wouldn't want to do one of those :shock: Da General
