A tool (1) for loosening or removing a set (2) of barbs (3) from barbed wire (4) is disclosed. The barbed wire has at least one strand (7) of wire and a plurality of spaced apart sets of barbs wound around the wire. The barbs extend in substantially opposite directions from a wire helix (6) wound around the wire. The tool has first and second portions (11) each engageable with the wire and having an opposed levering element (8) that is radially offset from the wire for applying leverage to the helix. Rotation of the portions in a first direction abuts each of the levering elements against a corresponding one of the pair of barbs to unwind or unfurl the helix.

A handheld tool for installing wire on a fence, the tool having a frame, a sprocket system that is situated at least partially within the frame and engaged by an actuator, a T-post alignment unit that is configured to position a vertical T-post against the tool, a clip storage magazine that is attached to a top of the frame, a tube assembly that is movably mounted within the frame, and a presenter that is configured to present clips from the magazine. The sprocket system and tube assembly are configured to cause the clip presented by the presenter to be pushed into position against the T-post and a horizontal fence wire, tension the fence wire against the T-post, lock the fence wire into position against the T-post by straddling the T-post with the clip, and wrap two ends of the clip around the fence wire to attach it to the T-post.

A pipe coupler is disclosed for the repair of a damaged top rail of a cylindrical chain link fence pipe. The pipe coupler comprises a pipe coupler having a cylindrical body wall including a primary socket and a secondary socket. The primary socket and the secondary socket have a larger cylindrical diameter than the cylindrical top rail of the chain link fence for slidably engaging with the ends of the top rail portions. The pipe coupler has a socket door for covering a socket grove which prevents the separation of a replacement cylindrical rail portion or an existing cylindrical rail portion. A flexible strap and a clamp are used to keep the socket door closed.

A wire strainer including a drive means having a mounting block with a drum mounted for rotation relative thereto, and an actuation means connected to the drum for selectively causing the drum to rotate relative to the mounting block. A line member is operatively connected to the drum in a manner such that rotation of the drum in one direction causes the drum to pull the line member relative to the mounting block. Locking means is operatively connected to the mounting block and adapted to selectively lock the drum against rotation in the opposite direction. Gripping means is operatively connected to the mounting block, wherein the gripping means is adapted to be releasably attached to a wire to be strained. The line member includes securing means for releasably securing the line member to a strainer post or similar anchor.

A clip secures a fence to a fence post. The clip has a bifurcated portion for placing around an exterior of the fence post. A first leg portion extends from one side of the bifurcated portion and a second leg portion extends from the other side of the bifurcated portion. Each leg portion has a loop for receiving a portion of the fence. Each leg also has a pliable twisting portion extending outward from leg loop. Each leg twisting portion has a sufficient length so as to allow the twisting portion to be twisted around the respective leg portion to at least close off the respective leg loop. The twisting portion may be twisted around a double backed portion of each leg portion. The twisting portion may be twisted around the respective leg portion with a tool that cooperates with a cordless drill.

Tools including a jaw portion, a hinge portion, and a handle portion are provided. The jaw-portion may include a pair of jaws. The hinge portion may generally be configured to allow each jaw of the pair of jaws to pivot between open and closed positions relative to each other and form an aperture adjacent a tip of each of the pair of jaws when the jaws are in the closed position. The handle portion may be located on the opposite side of the hinge portion to the jaw portion to allow for opening and closing of the pair of jaws.

A staple removal device for removing a staple and wire arrangement from a fence post includes a main body having a first jaw and a second jaw spaced apart from each other. The first jaw and second jaw provide a first and second elongate channel respectively for receiving the wire. Both the first and second elongate channels comprise a closed end in which the wire may be received. A gripping portion is moveably connected to the main body and a lever causes movement of the gripping portion. Beneficially, a first and second block portion is configured at a surface of the main body wherein a side edge of the first and second block portion is substantially in alignment with the closed end of the first and second channel respectively so as to, in use, increase the surface area of the contact region between the staple removal device and the wire.

A stapler for a fence post incorporates a tubular sleeve configured to hold a single staple, in a first sleeve end and a bolt configured to be inserted into a second sleeve end and to moveably rest within the interior space of the sleeve. When inserted into the sleeve, a first end of the bolt is in contact with the staple head positioned within the first sleeve end. An impact surface is secured to a second bolt end and remains outside of the sleeve. A wingnut is secured through an aperture within the sleeve adjacent the second sleeve end. The distal end of the wingnut selectively engages a notch cut into the surface of the bolt adjacent the impact surface and having a length which generally corresponds to that of a staple. The device is configured to transfer a force from the impact surface to the staple head thereby driving the staple into a surface such as that of a fence post.

The present disclosure provides a fencing tool having a first and second end separated by a shaft, the second end further comprising an opening drilled therein and extending partially the length of the shaft and a plurality of exterior grooves on its exterior.
