This company does not stand behind there product. Asks you to send it back, never checks it and then tells you it's all within specs and if you want your product that you paid for and had shipped to you back, you need to pay shipping a second time to get it back. Management horrible to deal with. Co tacted owner directly and never acknowledged the email or concerned about his faulty product. BUYER BEWARE.

I saw the article that you want to be the company selected for the Trump administration southern boarder wall. You should be ashamed of yourself. This is a waste of tax payers money and I will repost that article on social media.

Thank you for wanting to help build the wall and help protect our boarders. I manufacture Crab Traps with your wire and I am proud to use material made in the USA.
