I use the bottom strand of wire for chain link fence. Can get it at any fencing store, works great and it’s fairly cheap.

As mentioned above co-op is the only place I could find it around here. I'm talking the soft normal stuff, few other places had hard galvanized crap like fencing wire.

Thanks guys,
UFA was the spot. I found it at bolt supply house too but a lot more expensive.

Default #9 wire

I got my last batch of #9 annealed wire from Home Hardware. They had to order it in, but they have it. I would have to go back through the records to get the item number.
