Easy-Twist Fence Tying Tool

Extending from a standard variable-speed drill’s chuck, the Easy-Twist Fence Tying Tool is designed to affix woven wire fence to posts using pre-formed wire ties. Once a tie is slipped around both the fence and the post, its parallel ends are inserted into the Tying Tool, which power-twists the two ends three turns. (Positioning the tie on the post so that the twisted end protrudes in the same direction as the fence line reduces the risk of injury to passing people and/or animals.) Wire ties sold specifically for this tool must be used.

Cost: Tying tool-$55; pre-formed ties-$0.20 each
