HATCH PATTERN ELEGANCE
There is something to be said for elegance, and Watson Kilbourne delivers. His pattern for chain-link fencing shows that even good things can be improved. Check out Tip #1934 and the simple five-line pattern he provided to draw a chain-link crosshatch. Simple, elegant, genius!

135, .2,.4, 2.6870057685,.141421356, .70710678,-2.68700577

This works best in an enclosed area. Download the tip and place the PAT file in your support path folder. Next use Bhatch and select the options for a custom pattern. Look for the chain-link fencing option in the custom patterns that are available.
