      You want to know what I think? Love, love, LOVE the fence and gate!!! The handles? Ugg! "Most bad ass handles," seriously?! What is it with men thinking that "bad ass" is best? Maybe for your man cave to scare off bad guys, but honestly a terrible choice for a stunning gate to one's back garden.
      Although they're only metal, who wants to reach out their hand towards two cobras poised to strike in order to open their gate? Not me! I find the handles very unwelcoming and subconsciously anxiety producing. After making such a stunning fence and gate, they totally detract. My vote: choose new handles that have a compatible vibe with your exquisite gate. Beautiful job there!

    Good tools are so important. Make sure you get a quality 5-year-old. The ones you get from Harbor Freight aren’t always the greatest, so it’s definitely worth the investment to get a brand name. With proper maintenance, it should last for decades. Although be aware that operating costs for this tool increase dramatically after about 14 or 15 years as they tend to need a lot of fuel.

    I stumbled upon this video by chance and was blown away. Loved the design, the fact your little guy was involved and helped you keep your tape measure pristine (LOL). Excelling filming, editing sound etc. Great information and well narrated through the process. You just needed a longer view of the finished product (I guess pausing the video works, but not for a 360 view or up and down) you also need to tell us where you got the AWESOME Cobra handles and a link to your biscuit joiner.. Awesome video, all around, sir.

    1. 3:17 Even if your posts are pressure treated and you think you'll be fine, I'd still try and slap some extra water protection on the in-ground portions. It's not fun to have to test your posts every year and replace the rotted ones
    2. Did you also build the fence? It's quite magnificent
    3. I see the gate is a dividing line for the fence in terms of brown vs. gray color tones. Is that from different sun exposure/sealer?

      You would have been right there mocking the automobile, saying it could never replace the horse and buggy.
      The only "woodworker" not to be taken seriously is the blind simpleton that fails to see the value in a tool or technique even after someone has masterfully demonstrated its worthiness.
