Materials for work
In order to align the wire, you will need:
- thick log;
- drill;
- cable;
- cable tie;
- clamp with plate;
- hammer;
- car with tow bar.
Step 1. Prepare the log
In a thick log, stepping back a third from the edge, we drill a hole of such a diameter that the wire can easily enter into it and thread the wire through it.
We tie the second end of the log with a cable to something stable, for example, fence posts.
We fix the end of the wire, threaded through the log, in the clamp plate, passing it through the holes with a snake and bending the edge with a hammer.
We customize the car and put the clamp on the tow hitch.
Step 2. Align the wire
The machine, starting to move, pulls the wire through the log.
As a result, we got a smooth wire, just right for landscape design elements.
