okay i have a chance to get this grid metal the sheets are 14 by 10 and what i was thinking of doing is cutting them in half to where they were 7 by 10 and making 3 10 by 10 by 7 kennels for my dogs with wooden decks and hot wire around the top because i have 2 that wont think twice about jumping it! and it will all be welded and put together with pipe! just wondering if yall thought that was a good idea or not oh and between each pen running plywood as screens so they couldnt start afight through the fence?

What do the sheets look like? Are you going to make a frame out of pipe and weld the sheet to that and then attach that panels together? Also are you going to use pipe or tubing?

we are going to make a frame with the pipe and the sheets are like a drainage type grid metal kindof looks like cyclone fence but the holes arent that big and the strips are wider and its not flimsy it is solid!

If I were you I'd go buy a couple of 20', 1/4" thick chains and be done with it. A 10'X10' is pretty small for a grown dog.
