This is the New Fence Magician by Wireman called the MERLIN. The tool is very easy to use and makes light work of tying off 3mm High tensile wire. The Merlin has been specifically designed to be able to get into tight spots and tie off equine or horse mesh (also known as no climb), as well as exclusion netting and wallaby wire. It can also attach heavy duty woven barbed wire such to posts.
The rotating head makes it easy to control. It does a nice tight wrap effortlessly, which is difficult to do by hand, especially in tight spots. And with only one tie head it pushes other wire out of the way without getting hung up. On horse mesh the Merlin is an enormous time saver. We’ve had contractors tell us it’s reduced a single tie off of 13 line-wire, from 40 minutes down to 11 minutes. If you are doing 5 strains a day that's well over 2 hours saved, in a single day.
What contractors tell us is, even if it hasn’t saved time, it’s allowed them to work longer because the tying off is that much easier. And they’ve saved on joiners like gripples while getting more out of new employees, because it’s less of a problem to get them to tie off neatly.

We were changing the use of a section of our block and needed to raise the fence height to keep out deer and kangaroos. This product was effective and very easy to use.
Love the Crinkler.
Very easy to do and results speak for themselves.
Awesome bit of kit 👍🏻
Hi I haven’t used it very much at all to be honest but I’m impressed so far. Hopefully the metal components don’t rust over time is something I thought of. Thanks.
The Vice man from down under has made it again! The Viceman 1,5m are incomparable lightweight and easy to handle. Even though very strong and durable. Best strainers ever!
Love it. Awesome
Brilliant
After setting it up the right way it is a breeze to hook it up and strain.
Great job excellent to deal with
Having never fenced before, I had no equipment so this kit was perfect. We have completed 2 fences since this kit arrived and for a complete beginner it was a breeze. All parts are extremely high quality and easy to use. Highly recommend to anyone
Very quick delivery - good product
StraineX Wire Strainer - (Full Kit) Spring Gauge
I have only used this on a few jobs so far fixing damaged hinge lock and i it worked well. I handed it to my 76 yr old mum and she could use it . Does what it says it does
Great product. I have been using it now for over a month and it has saved me so much time. Once you get the hang of it you just fly through debarbing process. since dad passed away the fencing had been run down on the farm and i use this on every repair job. I Will buy a second one as a back up. I rate this product highly.
I just underwent a reasonable fencing job, 2/1/2 months straight, and due to Angus cattle, I'm all about barb wire and a set of strainers. Bobex however, offered a solution to a dilemma I was facing, "Short runs". I've integrated it as a system for all the farms short runs now. This has allowed me the ability to set up traps for my cattle, so that I can cut them off and stop them running me in circles! Why Bobex instead of ratchet tensioners? Typically, ratchet tensioners are wired up with plain wire, leaving a spot for asses to scratch. With Bobex, it's barb everywhere, leaving no where for an ass to rub! You give an inch, they take a mile. This removes all the inches.
