Fence Project
I used the rod to add an upright between fence spires as the distance between them was wide enough for our dog to get through. These worked perfect

This rod's a steel.
Would RecommendAs 1/4" steel rods go, this one was a particularly fine example. It was especially pleasing to find that Lowe's carries them in 6' lengths, which is what we needed.
