mgsontour Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Evening all, two of us have made some mallard nesting tubes today, all well and good thus far. We've now a little puzzled on the best way to attached them to fence posts and wondering if the PW fountain of knowledge can come up some help because we've made them 3 foot long and they pretty heavy so need some sturdy re-enforcement of some kind. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
