Thanks for your comment. If you are willing, you can do it yourself by using chicken wire or you can buy it on the internet.
I would suggest something stronger than chicken wire for your projects. Your local hardware store should carry a variety of materials. Chicken wire is not very strong but would be OK for a small project.
Thank you for your informative comment
