Ooooh.. that's nice. I could see using that as a gated entrance, but I don't
have any of the grate pieces. Drat.

As Tom said, I would go with a combination of 2x2-2x2 brackets (there
should be a lot in brown available on brickbay from the droid fighters)
and plain plates.

I'm actually thinking about cheating in a large way. I was contemplating
using 1x1 bricks stacked about 6 high for posts spaced every ten studs or
so. In between the bricks I would sandwich a length of string. (black,
comparable to what LEGO uses) It's only a 5 wire fence, but it would get the
job done. Not as imposing as a plate fence made out of 4x8 plates though....
