    Love this! My husband & I just bought a home in August & 2 sides of the fence need replacing. It’s the same Dog ear type, but I think all the posts need replacing too. I’ll be excited to try this in the spring!

    Very nice video! I gave you a thumbs up and I liked the attention to detail. You’re definitely right about dropping the perfection of square and using your eyeballs to ensure it is esthetically pleasing. Something about foregrounds and backgrounds will cause perfection to not look so perfect. Great video!

    Andrew, would it be okay to extend existing 4ft fence posts using a metal mending plate or another fastener? We have a 4ft fence and the posts are in great condition. Wondering if we can save money and time by just extending or if there's issues with that?

    Just built something similar and something to consider is the cost of staining the fence is insane. I did this instead of a pvc fence because I wanted to save some Money but to stain both sides it was another $800 to the cost. Unless your planning on letting your hard work turn grey something to consider if your budgeting this project.
