Re: RE: portable corrals



Have to admit, our PVC panels all ended up broken, too.  Tried them with the
Orangutan Himself and had someone politely tapping on our rig door at 6 a.m.
saying they were having a fine time watching Spudnuts climb the panels and
utterly destroy them.  Oh well.

What eventually worked for us was to find someone who makes corral panels
and ask if they'll make a set to your specs, with just two rails and just
the right size to fit our trailer.  They're a little heavier and bulkier
than the really spiffy ones, but were dirt cheap and work really well.  I
think ours are 7' long x 50" high, two rail and cost us $12 a panel.  Just a
thought.
