Hi,
I've been considering building a one acre hop yard. I managed to locate plans with a material list online and would like feedback about it. Does it seem like a good way to construct a yard? Could I use malleable wire clips instead of forged to save money. Are their any other plans available online?
Thanks for any input.

ETA: Message header should read "hops" not "hoys" and to add links.
