We bought “barbless cable” at Tractor Supply and made our own barbs using rubber bands.  Got a good width (can’t remember) cut them into short lengths, tied them onto the wire with a granny knot, cut the ends on a diagonal to appropriate length,   some aluminium / silver spray paint ….all done.   Looked great even up close.    Easy on the hands and clothes if crawling under, around or over it.   Using the real barlbless cable gave it that nice circular shape on the top of the walls and around the audience seating.    You’ll have to experiment for correct size of rubber bands.  Lots of mindless repetitive work….just in case you have anyone in mind for the job.
