Pulling out fence posts.

[Craigerrr]

Holly crap that ground doesn't want things stuck In it.

Footings and such just need to be installed below the frost line, then they stay put!

A lot harder to nail the cross boards to a steel post.

Yeah bolt the railings to the posts then use the railing to nail in the pailing

Being from the North, I actually laughed out loud when the local building inspector said, in all seriousness, that the frost line is a whole 12 inches here in Atlanta.

So it begins the posts are going in today.
It started raining but now sunshine yay!

50lt I bucketed out of each of them holes!

 

[west1m]

Make sure you dig down four feet or the frost monster will attack.

 

[GFHomebrew]

Them posts are in.
50lt per hole I bucketed out.
Will post pics some on the zoom already got the royal mud tour.

Here's what I'm thinking for my gate maybe

Idea is to tongue and grouve the pailings then brace them with another pailing as above.
Just gotta find enough straight ish boards then I'll rip a clean edge on them. Then set about doing the tounge and grouve.

State of end of play Monday Arvo

 

[Hawkbox]

Looks promising.

 

[Donoroto]

That's a very nice looking gate frame you got there Ben. Covering it up with those boards will really make it look nice.

Cheers Don I think so.
Well its a bit more elaborate than slapping the boards straight on.
Just used the previous one to save on coin I just cleaned it up a bit and gave it a cote of paint.

 

[Minbari]

Looking nice.

Make sure those braces go on correctly. (Should be on bottom at the hinge)

Hey I'm not picking up what your putting down the braces you mean them bits of board on the outside of the gate bits?
