They have it in different sizes. any chance of more precise whereabouts ...thanks Sounds pretty precise to me. About 100m west of the river, south of the superhighway access road. There's only one "superhighway". Also known as Hwy 11. Edited December 17, 2012 by MESmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OR drive west on the inside of the moat from the north east corner, go about 100 meters to the first shop you see selling machinery, it is before the first u turn possibility on the left. go in that shop and talk to the owner, English will work, if he does not have the wire, ask him for directions to his families other shop on the super highway access road OR open your copy of The Book of What Where and How to map page A6, it is probably 8 on that page, don't have the book? go buy one Go check it out and report back on prices for the rolls.

Mapguy Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 OP, if you drive around, not in the city, but along, for example, the Mae Rim and Chiang Dao roads, you will see many traditional shops, often with displays of smaller farming and such general merchandise out front. It is fun to drive around, stop and say hello. Most "in-town" shops don't have a lot of display and storage space. It can be hard finding them, and giving directions to them.

Greenside Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I saw just the kind of fencing you are looking for at the Home & Garden Show a couple of months ago. The guy on the stand says it's stocked in CM by Weera Panich which is just before you get to where they are building Central Festival on the superhighway. See my map. Best of all, the guy said that they stock proper wire strainers - something no-one in town could supply when I needed one a couple of years ago. Not tested this information (and the fencing was imported from OZ so maybe pricey) but it's worth a try. If you can speak Thai, their number is 053 852345.
