I'm gathering materials for a Nike site and need some VERY realistic chain link fencing. What I've seen on line so far just doesn't cut the mustard which includes some home made stuff using screening. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I too, am looking for a good source for chain link fencing...
Miller Engineering used to have a chain wire fence kit, check them out.
Wedding tulle , skewers, super glue and silver spray paint.
Miles of fence for under 8 bucks! 
I agree about Brennans. Kit includes supplies, jig, and instructions.
Is this realistic enough? (from website)

Thanks for the help guys. Looks like it's Brennan's.
You won't regret buying Dennis Brennan's kit. It takes time to build, but looks spectacular when done, and highly detailed.
I agree with Gary, The Dennis Brennan's kit is best there is!
Drew,
Home Depot fiberglass screen. Cut on a 45 degree angle to make links look correct. Plastruct plastic coated wire tubing (tb-1 or 2). Cut and bend tops on a 45 degree angle to attach barbed wire. Use sewing string for barbed wire. I use brown and then paint with silver when complete.
Space posts on 8 or 10 foot centers.
If you are able to drill the posts into the baseboard of the layout you will get the best results.
Make a template to hold the top rail of the fence when gluing to the posts.
Use Ca cement to glue the posts to the top rail.
Add the cut to size screen to the posts by gluing with CA.
You can pre-paint the fence silver. I also spray with brown primer to make the fence look somewhat rusty.
Glue the string (3 strands) to the bent portion of the posts using CA.
An accelerator for the CA works very well when putting the fence sections together.
