Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing wire from a spool for construction of a wire fence includes a frame adapted to be attached to a towing vehicle. A plurality of wire spool receiving compartments are attached to the frame. Each of the compartments includes a vertically oriented spindle adapted to receive a spool of wire. The compartments include a first row of laterally-disposed compartments and a second row of laterally-disposed compartments. The second row of compartments is disposed at a vertical location that is above the first row. Each of the compartments has an associated guide arrangement for guiding a strand of wire from a spool disposed in the compartment to a ground location as the apparatus is moved behind a towing vehicle. Each of the guide arrangements is laterally separated from its adjacent guide arrangements so that the strands of wire extending from the compartments are deposited in a substantially parallel orientation to one another.
