I need something to roll out some woven wire fencing. If I knew how to weld, I could make this....

M5, I did a different search and ran across the other forum where you had made one to go on the front end loader. I can unroll the wire, but I have no idea how I can get such a long roll of wire to stand up once I attach it to the posts. So, I do want to unroll it standing up.
The photo you showed is sort of covered up by the "Photobucket" label and I am not sure what I am looking at. Do you still have a photo of that device you made to go on the front end loader?

My opinion - that one will not last long without repair. We just made a 5 roll HT wire unroller for the front end and it can be converted to 5 rolls of barbed wire with rollers made for barbed wire or else it will unroll woven wire without the rollers on the center pipe. I do not care to look back all day long so I wanted it on the front. It has an offset guide roller to keep any wire off of the tractor.

I sent him a message to look at your post.

I'm not sure if this is the one or not. This one was just a disc pan and pipe . I could use a roll of web wire or put barb wire on it and I had disc pans that I would stack between the rolls.

Thank you bulltrader for sending that to M5.
M5, that is it. It sure looks sturdy and would be perfect. I was trying to figure out what attachment that could be added to that we have, and trying to figure out how to convince him to do it.
I am going to have to agree with Ebenezer that the one I posted above looks weak as the arm is so long that it will have to give somewhere. Those rolls are so heavy.

I needed to unroll a few hundred feet of field fence, so I built a rig out of what I had. Used a 3pt bale spike and pointed it straight up. Took a piece of pipe to fit over the top of the tip and welded an eye on it at the top. Put an old truck rim and a piece of plywood on the bottom down by the linch pins for the wire to set on. (There was a gusset on the bale spike that required the truck wheel to clear it!)
I laid the spike down and pushed the roll of wire on the spike the hooked a come-a-long to the eye and attached to other end to the roll cage on my tractor (Deutz 6206) and cranked it up. Worked perfect. Took very little time to assemble. Only welding was the 15" pipe to fit over the point of the bale spike----welded the eye.
No pictures. Just used it for three spools of wire. Worked better then I imagined.

The ones that posted here gave me enough of an idea to throw suggestions at my husband. So this is what he came up with that did not involve any welding or creating something permanent. This is about as red neck as it comes! Lets just hope that it works!! He took the hay spear and turned it upside down on the carry all and attached it with ratchet straps to hold it on. Then he cut a hole in a piece of board that would let is slip down and rest on the frame of the hay spear attachment. Then we lowered the roll of wire over the hay spear. This is what all of that consists of. So, tomorrow we will start fencing the lot where the horse is escaping.

chuckie you just need to live closer ! I could teach you to weld. But better than that, you could just use the one I built. Or the other one I built. :-) One works on a tractor 3 point. My second one goes into the receiver hitch of a pick up. It extends out 7 feet in 2 inch tube steel. You slide your pipe into the roll, slide that onto the receiver hitch sleeve, stand it up on the tube steel vertical receiver. This one only works in smooth pasture. You'd want to use the 3 point rig in rough terrain.

Backhoeboogie, that sounds like the one I wanted to build. I wanted that square iron that would fit into the receiver hitch of my equipment mover on my little tractor. I talked it till I had a sore throat. Ha-ha!!
But I must say that the three point hay spear did work really good once we had it secured on the carry all. It unrolled it like a charm. Still wish I had one that fit on the trailer hitch receiver. The way we got the roll of wire on the spear; we picked it up with a tractor front end loader and a chain. Just had to lower it slowly on to the spear as it kept getting hung up on the inside wire.
