Gday All,

I found this site from a link to the Barbed wire article. I have a question though. The article recommends 34 gauge soft wire, what is this used for??. I went into the hardware store and asked for it amd they gave me a blank look. Where might I find this in Australia??.

Thanx

Tony

I just made some of that barbed wire, I got mine from one of those shops where ladies get their cake making materiels honest! they have all sizes of wire I ended up getting heaps of the stuff they use it for making artifical flowers and bows. While Im here I was thinking of doing a little scene in Italy or Greece with a ancient ruin in it,I checked out verlindens colums far to expensive, in the cake shop they have them in plastic for wedding cakes a quarter of the price. any how good luck.
