Fences

Americans seem to share a compulsion for marking their territory and their boundaries with fences. Fences can also be used as visual accents in a landscape, providing a backdrop for a planting, a frame for climbing plants, or camouflage for the gas tank.

Assume:
8 ft. between posts for a Rail Fence and
8 ft. between posts for a Privacy Fence

Type of Fence:
Rail Fence
Privacy Fence

Running Feet:
Enter the length in running feet of the area you'll be fencing:

 in.

Number of Rails: (optional)

    (3 rails assumed if left blank)
    (cannot have less than 1 rail)
 

Tip:
You can use old motor oil to treat the bottoms of your posts to protect them from moisture. Also add some sand/gravel to your post hole to keep water draining away from the wood.
