Abstract: An apparatus for handling woven wire fencing which in use is attached to a farm tractor. Disposed vertically between upper and lower horizontal framing members within a rectangular frame are a removable shaft, a hinged gate, and a vertical guide bar. The shaft is used to hold the roll of woven wire fencing uprightly atop the metal disk. In use, the wire fencing is simultaneously unrolled and pulled rearwardly through the nearly-closed gate, straightening the fencing material. Guide rails within the gate direct the fencing material towards a pair of horizontal fingers, each rigidly connected to the vertical guide bar and the rear vertical frame member. Once enough fencing material has been unrolled to span at least the distance between two fence posts, the gate is swung shut, clamping the wire against the rear vertical frame member.
