Attaching tarps, patching holes and so on. I have used bailing twine, vertically, one end tied through the hog ring the other to the bottom of the fence, or, if there is a wood batton, I use "Fender Washers" and deck screws, to stop the billowing, they come off easier than nails when its time to take things down and can be used again. By the way, my wife and I are thinking about Soay sheep for our little 4 acres which we just bought last summer. Three acres of irrigate pasture that need some new fence and other work. bh I use lots of “Hog Rings” for such things that have to do with fences. Attaching tarps, patching holes and so on.
