Different gauges of cattle panel?

[Soon2BChixMom]

I think I mis quoted the lengths.. I have been sick- very sick the last few days. I'm shacked up on the sofa..
versus editing my post I will agree with 16 feet.
Forgive me. My head weighs 50# right now.
although the corral board back up is accurate.

Feel better!

Actually, there is. Secure one edge, tie a pulley to the other, pass a rope through the pulley, & pull 'til the ends meet. Have someone standing by with a couple pairs of ratchet straps hooked together to hold the circle in place so you can fasten the edges together with wire or heavy duty clips.

Sounds like too much work.

That could be, but it's doable; depends on your point of view.

I have welded wire around the outside of the CP - that is easy to work with.
They are 16' and 50".

That's some real old panel.. even the tips aren't machined off.

You might be surprised what you're capable of. Quite possibly, if you think about it for a while, you'll figure out a way to get 'er done by using your head..."work smarter, not harder". Good luck

Yeah, my father-in-law rarely throws anything away.
This past winter my dog sliced herself on the edge of one of those. I had no idea it could happen. They are now covered so that it cannot happen again.

An angle grinder and a fresh carbon disk will remedy that hazard in short time.

We affixed drain tile pipe to the edge cut in half and secured with tie wraps.
