This plan packet shows how to build a mobile electro-net frame on pipe skids so you can drag-move your pen to fresh ground.
You’ll get the exact corner, straight union, and gate details, plus the 4×4 insert shaping that lets treated wood slide inside the pipe. Works great for poultry rotations and can be adapted for sheep/goats or any livestock you would keep in a fence depending on your netting and energizer.

FAQ (paste this)
Q: Is this a physical product?
No — it’s a digital PDF download.
Q: Will it work with my netting?
Most electro-net brands will work. You may need to adjust post spacing and how tight you staple/secure the bottom strand.
Q: Can I build a different size than 30'×50'?
Yes. The plan shows a 30'×50' example, but the concept scales to other sizes.
Q: Can I share these plans?
Please don’t. This purchase is for one farm/ranch use.

Portable Electro-Net Pen on Pipe Skids (Plans + Cut List) — Instant PDF Download
I built this because I was tired of fighting floppy netting and wasting time setting posts every move. The pipe skids let you drag the whole pen to fresh ground, and the bridle + center keel keeps it tracking straight instead of crab-walking. The corner/post setup is what makes it work — you keep the net tight, keep your spacing consistent, and you can move faster with less aggravation. It’s simple, no-weld, and built for real farm moves when you’ve got a hundred other things to do.
