Building A Garden Fence, Utilisation 1

If you lot told me a few years agone I'd locomote edifice rustic fencing together with growing tomatoes I'd telephone phone you lot loco, simply hither nosotros are. Last calendar week nosotros planted a small-scale raised bed veggie garden, together with our pup Fern promptly dug upwards the lettuce bed together with ate a brussel sprout plant. We knew nosotros needed to larn a combat upwards ASAP, hence on Fri nosotros picked upwards 35 cedar posts from a guy on Craigslist, loaded them inwards the car, together with hauled them domicile (please excuse my fuzzy iPhone photos).

Next nosotros selected together with cutting a few small-scale trees from our dorsum woods to role for the combat rails.

And together with then nosotros laid to run measurement our plot together with earthworks holes for the posts amongst a hole digger.

We used a sledgehammer to pound the cedar posts into the ground, together with earlier long our combat was starting to accept shape.

On Dominicus the rails went up. We pre drilled the posts together with beams, together with then used 5/16 x 5 structure lag screws that own got a bronze ceramic coat to screw our rails into the cedar posts. Not everything is centered perfectly or just level, simply nosotros are telling ourselves that's fine because this is a "rustic" fence.

Here's where we're at correct now.

In fourth dimension the bark volition cutis off together with the whole affair volition plow grayness every bit onetime forest does. It's non a professional person  fence, simply it looks correct at domicile side past times side to our barn. I was surprised to uncovering that it already looks similar it has been in that place forever.

This calendar week nosotros volition attach rabbit wire to the dorsum of the combat frame to popular off on the critters out. Once that's upwards nosotros innovation to add together a gate together with a small-scale entryway arc. Eventually nosotros volition add together to a greater extent than branches betwixt the rails for reinforcement. Josh volition too add together 2 to a greater extent than raised beds to the left of the existing iii for a total of five.

Our garden doesn't expect similar much similar a shot every bit our plants are however immature together with small, simply I promise ane hateful solar daytime it volition resemble the garden below. Isn't this the nearly beautiful spot?

That's all for now. Hopefully I'll locomote sharing photos of a finished combat together with flourishing plants rattling shortly :)
