I went the coat hanger route at first too. I spent about 2 or 3 hours cutting and bending to make around 100 of them which I thought would be plenty. I used them all up in about 20 minutes. At that p

Out of all the ideas, all of which I tried, I still like bobby pins for the radial pin down. If you only need a few it is okay to make your own but I needed thousands and it would have taken me forev

The sod staples are more work to get into the hard rocky ground around here and also way overkill to hold a piece of 20 or 22 guage wire down. Possibly in FL with the soil being somewhat sandy it wou

Anyone seen plastic sod staples? Sure would seem to make more sense than metal -- no rust -- and easily made from recycled materials. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My radials are usually heavier wire, sometimes copperweld with its springiness and memory. So when I needed staples that would not rust (heavy ones for a drip irrigation system and light ones for rad

Mike, If the bobby pins fail to go in, in some places, give the barb wire fence staples a try. The prongs are so thick and sharp you can smash them in with a hammer. I have a lot of junk below grade

Rob... I'm sure that everyone already knows, but just a reminder... Be very careful with bobby pine, staples, wire, or what ever you use... A lawn mower, given the oppportunity to snag one, will send

Thanks Dan, When you put down radials, you automatically sacrifice your golf course putting green lawn, if you ever had one, because you: A. Raise the blade up as high as you can, B. Sharpen the blad

The fence post staples are libel to end up in my lawn mower or truck tires for sure. Looking at cost, I just bought a box of 2 inch length bobbies on sale for $4.99 for 1 pound which works out to abo

TT: I've used both bent wire shirt hangers and bobby pins to staple my radial wires into the grass around my 160M inverted L. I would have used more bobbies except they were too expensive when bought

Bobby pins should work fine, particularly the longer ones.    I used electric fence wire (wahr in Missouri).   Just cut a piece off a roll and fold it in half.   The only advantage over the bobby pin
