Sorting Board/Panel
http://www.hogslat.com/sorting-panels-and-sticks
These boards are used to protect you from an aggressive pig or to help guide an unwilling pig into a specific area that you need them to go into. There are homemade versions of these by using plywood and cutting out handles for your hands. These store bought boards are very well made and sturdy.
These can also be found on Amazon.com, however, I didn't have a pleasant experience with my order, Hogslats.com fulfilled my order within 2 days with the correct size ordered versus Amazons wrong size, much higher price and it took FIVE weeks to receive.
