You could probably buy some cheap crappy Chinese ones from your local O'Reillys or other parts house. But a fence supply company will have some nice ones for a fair price.

What kind of chain fence are we talking about? Hog rings are pretty small, are the chain links small also? Too bad you weren't in Jersey, I'd lend you my hog ring pliers, I got mine from SnapOn, not sure where else you would find them, but maybe a chain parts store might have them in their tool section as mentioned.

Oh Ok, now I know what you're talking about. Yea, I bet they'd work.

Totally forgot about KD, I believe that's what my buddy at work has. I can honestly say that I've never been to a feed and tack store though, and had to ask my girlfriend what it was lol
