It can be an earth (and budget) friendly way to terrace your yard, particularly if you are able to fill the wire mesh construction with reused/recycled stones. Wire mesh that is filled with stones is called gabion.
Ancient construction techniques are used in new ways. Imagine all the things you could do with this.
I wanted to construct a fence or at least a base for one, but last year was so rainy, I couldn't get my hands on any stones, part of the land where we had a pile of stones turned into lake...

This is really cool! I'd love to use some of that one day when I've got my own place.
Yeah well my place needs much more fixing than just a new fence...sometimes I wish I was renting...
Truly well said! I personally look forward to the future!
