that being said in looking up ASTM specs on barbed wire ( most educational including the history) i found the barb is 3/4 inch from center and 4 or 5 inches spacing.
Dividing these dimensions by 1/87 would give barbs smaller than the eye could see so i'll go thread or black wire.
besides cutting one strand of screen wire at a time for all i need would soon make me go blind or crazy
got to get busy before the cows wander on the track

Ah I see what you're doing there. Thread definitely seems like the way to go. I guess you'd be using either silver or brown thread, depending on how rusty the wire needs to look.

Oh phew. When I first read the topic of the post I thought it said FECES. Fences is a much better topic. Though if you have barbed wire you probably have cattle and feces probably do enter into the picture at some point.
