RE: Panama Blog #13 - Panama's living fence lines - Efficient and equals Millions of miles of trees - My experiences and perspective here

in #panama-blog8 years ago (edited)

As a student of physical security, the beer cans on the tops of the chain link fencing is a curiosity to me. What is their purpose?

Sort:  

Quite simple actually, I looked for days to find proper fencing equipment.
Found at the best biggest store for fencing and metals near me, I found the very fence gear I wanted on a display of fencing...I Used to install fence as a kid. " That's what I want the fence attchments and the fence post caps ". Sorry sir thats just a display and we don't carry that! ( Fick me ) They do carry the fence post caps that you can attach razor wire to, but ya Welcome to Panama.
The beer cans are just to keep the water out for now, they actually fit like a glove and fun to make :-) All I have to do is drink a beer and remove the top :-) I can do that all day long....And usually do LOL
Cheers

I thought it might be to keep water out but I was not sure. Since I recommend chain link to people, I need to learn more about it. Thanks!

I'll do a detailed post on fencing soon :-) Somewhere in Panama probably has the proper hardware. I found my Tub and shower fixtures at the Discovery Center in Tumba Muerto. Great store for American everything.
