Travlinman - Fence and Gate Add On
Peter Steady
A couple of small soft wood trees needed
to be
removed as to accomodate a 12 foot fence addition.
The ending 4 feet of fence tapers in height from 6 feet
to 3 feet before
taking a right turn where a short gate
will link to the house.
The trees were cut and the stumps were left,
but cut below ground level.
Now it's time to dig a hole and install a 5 1/2 foot post
and then a 2 1/2 foot corner post.
The Gate was made from a piece
of Fence Stock with the bottom
cut off as for the top to be the same height
as the top of the Fence.
A 2 1/2 foot post was set next to the house
as to support the Gate Hinge
The Last 4 feet of the fence was
disassembled
and the slats were cut
to diferent sizes and reassembled
for a Tapered Affect.
The Fence and Gate were painted with both a coat
of Latex Primer and Over Coat.
