Guest DeeD Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Put down a slab of concrete as your base with drains on it. Buy some iron bars and weld them together the size you want the pens. Buy some of this wire and weld it onto the bars: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GALVANISED-WELD-MESH...1QQcmdZViewItem Paint the bars with Galvinised paint and they'll be a lifetime job. FACT!
