Notice the toms, like putting up a canvas tent.

Image The third sheet of netting is going directly over the fruit trees.

Maybe, I am off to town today to purchase a dozen wooden toms to prop the structure up, its sagging under the weight, the wire is stretching I think?

Wow, if I buy the Ni-Fe battery system 48Volt, this would give me 10 amp Hour battery at 48 volts and cost me $1,200 for the batteries including delivery charge, and the total weight would be 25 Kg ! And get this these batteries last forever, a 100 years. You can run them down dead flat no worries and overcharge them again. And mow all day, who mows for a full 8 hours these days?

I add to that, I purchased a 18V cheap electric trimmer, ripped the battery bit out, hooked up a 12 metre cable to an old car battery on 12V, and cut anything I like with it, the machine ran at 60% of its strength due to the reduction of the voltage, never was strong enough to break the whipper cord, and while a little less powerful in cutting, I ran the system all day. The only thing that was a little inconvenient was lugging the heavy battery around in 12m increments. On the plus side, I have never changed the whip cord. It’s great.

Image In about 3 hours, I had advanced nearly half way on the first roofing sheet of wire netting. So the machine is working OK for now.

Image Welded up the horizontal turntable for the wire netting. Because it moves width ways the progress is much slower, about 1.2 to 1.5 m each time. Not sure how I will navigate over the fruit trees, soon to be a challenge.

Correct, the building is rabbit proof, pig proof, and soon will be bird proof. Than I can grow my 60+ fruit trees, run my chooks, do my veggie garden without wildlife interfering with it.
I can also place shadecloth over it too and make it frost proof.

Image View from up the ladder, it’s quite a way down (5 metres to be exact). You can see the cable clearly.
