Nice work mate! Re: picket spacing. I like to work out the spacing as you demonstrated, but i will install a bit over a third of the pickets from each side post towards the centre of the span. That way i can make the minor adjustments between the last few pickets in the centre of the span where it is not as obvious visually.
Hey, this looks awesome. Can you let us know what size picket, posts, and railings you use for middle and bottom? Would be really appreciated to try build the same fence. Thanks
you should have a look at the Dewalt 12v line (pretty sure they are only sold at bunnings) super small lightweight and shit loads of power for doing stuff like this (driving small-medium screws and drilling small to medium holes). Im a 3rd-year sparky apprentice and got the 12v gear about a year ago and haven't touched my 18v impact since and rarely use my 18v drill just due to the weight savings
Why do you let the pickets rest on the bottom board? Wouldn’t it be better to have 0,5cm between them so moisture doesn’t stay in contact with the end grain of the pickets?
It is an Australian video. The pickets are called Windsor which are treated pine. Height of centre pickets are 1.2 metres and the ones on the end are longer..

Saving this for when I can finally get my fence built 🙄

Sounds like an interesting tool! I’ll be sure to get it and give it a use and review!
looking good man. like your stuff. currently rebuilding my panel fence from a storm we had. Got to love smashing out concrete :)
Thankyou! Annoying that you have to do that!
Hope the fence turned out well! Would love to see a photo on Insta if you have one 😁
Cheers mate, very helpful video!!
Glad it helped
Love your work mate.

Great tips mate , well done.

Where did you get these picket fence boards? They look amazing I cant find any here in the US this beautiful.
I am wondering the same thing!

Good stuff dude!
Cheers!
How do you work out the height of each picket if it was an arched top fence?
Hey mate ,is this 90mm post?
Nice
The way he says thank you for 1k followers it’s 2024 now 🎉
1k subscribers blew my mind! I can’t comprehend 100k!
isnt it faster to tack them then screw them ?> just wondering
It is faster, I find the screws will last a lot longer and hold a lot stronger
Yo hi
Hey mate!
Must be paid by the hour
I hate math
