MTO's Grate Fence 4,5 mm Screw Clamp 16 pcs

thingiverse

I've got two small dogs and urgently needed a cheap fence to enclose my garden. I picked up some green plastic-coated metal compost grates in a 7-pack of 4 pieces each, measuring about 900x700 mm, for a total of 56 euros. To create the wooden frames, which are 1800x700 mm inside, I used standard 45x28 mm pressure-impregnated fence strips at a cost of 0.65 euros per meter. I joined two grates together with black cable ties along their 700 mm sides and then attached the double metal grate to the frame using printed fence holders and small screws. Sixteen pieces are perfect for one section, and with the posts to hold the frames, I got a 28-meter dog fence for not much more than 150 euros. To make these, I printed them in black PETG for added strength and UV-resistance. This option saved me two-thirds of the price by printing instead of buying, and there was no exact fitting size available for purchase.
