Took a quick look around...
I found a few sites that sell the stuff, and one that tells you how to make it.
Hope this helps!! BTW- the search engine I use is Dogpile as it has most of the big search engines on it. Good Luck!!

Hey TM try this Get an old "Onion Bag" you know the mesh ones that the onions come in, after it's empty, Cut the bag in half on one side and across the bottom so it opens flat,then pick one strand and cut it all the way across so you end up with 1 long skinny peice and if you look at it dangleing there you can see the Barb wire strand paint it silver and start glueing it to the posts, I used this for some of my Military models and it looks pretty good,best of all it's cheap and 1 bag makes a lot of fence.
