Show REWINDING OF BARBED WIRE Excellent Use May Be Made of Old Buggy Axle and Wheels Two Men Required to Operate. The sketch shows a very useful device de-vice for winding loose wire and taking up old wire fences. Procure an old buggy axle and wheels, and fasten two two-by-four sticks five feet long to the axle as illustrated. Provide that front end with a rod, the end of which is bent to form a crank. Two bent nails hold the block which had to be cut out to allow the rod to be put in place. When the JJSLl I t -J To Rewind Darbed Wire. spooi 's on, the nails are twisted so is to keep the red in place. If the rod does not hold the spool tightly, use wedges, writes Carl Achilles in ;he Independent Farmer. One mau pushes, and the man in front turns the crank. Wire can be wound as ast as a man can walk and just as avenly as when bought new. |
