Incredibly beautiful. Love seeing women using tools. I'm female 67 and have more tools than some men. Love working in my yard, landscaping and building things. You are an inspiration to all women.❤
That is very kind Susan! :D Best of luck with all your projects :)
Thanks for the inspiration!!! The final result’s dimensional element is wonderful. As a woman in Engineering I LOVE seeing women in trades too. I appreciate you showing out! Do your thing sis, do your thing!!!
Thank you so much for your support!😁 What field of engineering do you work in?
@@SaraBendrick-Torres I am a software engineer. We are finally seeing more women in tech. Really looking forward to seeing more women in trades. You are normalizing career paths and DIYs that a lot of women couldn’t see for themselves. As someone who has gotten strange looks just for putting up a mailbox, (clutches pearls) that is level and plum…I appreciate that you are out there clearly demonstrating your skills and your pride in it.
You go, lady!!! Glad to see a woman doing a project like a fence, making it practical and at the same time beautiful. Men don't usually look at the aesthetic... Beautiful final work!
Thanks for your support!!
this fence is a collector's item now with lumber prices. great work.
oh that first board for spacing above the deck is smart, thanks for showing that
Yes, of course. Thanks for watching!!
By far one of the best looking horizontal fences on youtube!
That fence looks fantastic 🎉.. I'm wanting to put up a Horizontal fence but this is really nice.. I will post one video on my channel once I put up mine.. simpler but new to me lol
The lights made the wall really nice
I love all of your stuff so far 🥰
Beautiful fence!!! Amazing job!!!!
Thank you!! Glad you like it :)
Wow! what a great concept and execution!
I had some doubts at the beginning but, with the addition of the finish, the decorative pieces and the lighting it came out very nice! I am quite impressed. That is an excellent job with a uncommon attention to small details.
Thanks a bunch!
I love how much you appreciate the beauty of the wood. I constantly struggle with throwing away a piece of wood. I'm limited on space, so sometimes I have no choice. I love finding a use for a piece that someone else thinks is garbage. I used a square piece of cedar I found, it's like 5"x5"x1" and I screwed 2 hooks on it to hold up my bongos at angle since I couldn't find a nice wall mount online. I also hung my guitar up, but those I got from Amazon. I put them on a wall with wood paneling. So many friends thought it was a virtual background when I was on Zoom. Work Pride You Know!
I love recycling the wood too! There should be a wood scrap drop off collection somewhere lol!
No kidding. I have a couple of 55 gallon plastic barrels filled with wood scraps.
I have boxes and boxes of scraps, which my wife use to question me about until I saved hundreds by making a few things for her.
simple the best. very nice design
The camera work, especially the angles were simply amazing:)
Awesome job, looks great!!
Looks like they chose clear coat...
That's would be my choice. Rich, natural color and grain. Great idea with the lights. And your Trademark diamonds. Looks great.
yea it was really rich stain I liked how it turned out!
Another amazing job!
Hi Sarah, you have done a great Project. Compliments and Greatings from Bavaria!!
I'm a sucker for watching a beautiful woman working construction. Great produced video. Love the timelapse sequences.
Thank ou 🙌
Fantastic work thank you for kindly sharing. That will be my next project
That's a pretty cool demonstration.
Thank you! What was your favorite part?
Great design and final product! This is what I’ve been looking for.
Awesome! Glad to hear it!
Love this, love the design and I can imagine the smell of the cedar
oh it smells good!
Nice design!
Thank you!
Beautiful design and red cedar is a great choice. 💯💕 thanks for sharing!
I loved the design of this panel privacy wall Sara. Your designs are always so creative and tastefully done. 👩💪😎✌
awh thank you!!
Super cool job!
Watching this from the UK I'm so envious of the quality and availability of timber you have. At current UK prices the WRC you've used would cost as much as the house!
Awesome fence, great to see you so passionate about your work👍 great video too, you should have your own show on national tv 😁 keep up the good work 🤟
Awh thank you :)
I especially love it when she leans forward 😍
At a guess I'd say 36D..Attractive as well.
Beautiful work, excellent job!
I like that you're using craftsman tools 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
so cool. great design! beats any fence I've ever done ... good stuff
Beautiful job.! What kind of nail and nail gun did you use for the horizontal panels?
I wonder 6 months later if any code violation issues since it appears to go above the 6 ft fence and attached to it. Then the other issue is when you create void space it becomes a place for wasps & ants to build nests plus difficult to maintain. I've done a few wood privacy screen areas to block out neighbors views and have always done it a foot away from the fence on seperate posts using steel high wind rated ones so it's sturdy. If anyone complains generally nothing in city codes about fencing inside the property line.
Just come across your channel great to watch fence looks stunning
Awh thx!!
BEAUTIFUL WORK💯
Nice design. We got a pallet of pecky cedar that we’re using horizontal. I think I’m going to tweak your diamonds and make little medallions to cover the seams. Our boards are more random lengths and generally shorter, though most are at least starting as 1x12’s.
Great job. Awesome to see it come together and the end fence is gorgeous
Awh thank yoU!!!
Great job! Liked the pace and content of your video. Gracias!
Fantastic Job, Love It!!!
It was great job
beautiful, this gives me some idea for my future deck
I think is beautiful!!!
Great job sara
Nice and informative vid!
**one major thing to note:
Homeowners should double check with their City Building Dept for code requirements on allowable deck sizes and fence heights.
No! Screw the city and code! Build and pray for the best!
Alexandre Lacazette 🤣. Yes many people do and find out the hard way... $$$
Don't be suspicious
Had a question about code. If your putting a fence up, it’s supposed to be finished on the other side. I assume since you attached it to the current fence, it’s yours to do with what you want, but you went up higher then the other side. Doesn’t that have to be finished on the other side up to that height?
I love your work! Keep it coming! Be well, stay safe.
awh thank you! :)
Love this. Going to do something similar to my house in Denver.
great! Send a picture on ig if you do!!
Love it. Very beautiful and super inspirational. Thank you!
Beautiful work ,awesome job 💪🏽
Awh thx!!
Dope fence.
Amazing work!!
Gorgeous!
Appreciate!
Very nice job! Might suggest a few screws where the cupping is appearing. (or batten strips)
Thank you! I will look out for that! If So I want to use the GRK super tiny head screws lol :)
I’m building this tomorrow! Great look to it.
yasssss!!
Looks great Sara 👍 Well done 👍😁🇦🇺
thank you!
@@SaraBendrick-Torres 👍😁🇦🇺
Curious to know why you decided on 3/4" spacing between boards?
Beauty & intelligence. Perfect combination 💯
Wonderful content and pretty much the best vid around on horizontal fencing. Was wondering, how do you cap those 2x4 fence posts? Ty!
you can add a cap if you'd like! and screw it to the top of the fence posts
"Just gonna use this as my big fat a$$ - accent." @9:01 ROFL slip of the tongue there... had me laughing!
I love the fence and would like to build one very similar. Except, I would like to have the fence boards touching each other and not have the 3/4 inch space. One side of my fence faces the street and I need all the privacy I can get. Is there a reason you left the space in, other than for overall looks?
You might have already done it by now - but I think it’s just for looks/effect. Another landscaper I’ve watched uses black weed membranes to put behind the fence so you still get the spaces but also still get privacy.
This is beautiful!!!
Just found this. Nice look! No screws or adhesives? How does it hold up over time?
thanks for asking, I havent had trouble with it this way in the past, but i'll do an update if I have to retouch it up! :)
Are the vertical posts secured to the neighbours fence? That could be problematic if the neighbour wants to remove/replace their fence. Just an observation. The fence looks amazing.
I’ve been wanting this type of fence for a year. I have a 240ft yard. Contractors bid this at $18,000 🤦🏼♀️🙄 I’m going to do it myself even if it takes all summer!!! What size nails do you suggest? Excellent job!! Looks gorgeous!
More than the size, if you are using pressure treated, make sure the nails or screws are compatible with PT. Rule of thumb is the fastener should extend at least an inch into the structure, so 2” fasteners when attaching 1bys (3/4”).
Great job!
Looks like a 16ga finish nailer is used to fasten the slats... Aren't the slats going to pop out after a while? The only time I've seen this done is when also using an adhesive and then the nails are just there to hold the slats in place until the adhesive cures.
thx for the feedback :) might pop in screws down the road if needed
Excellent job. Subscribed!
appreciate it!
I am curious though how local code deals with extensions to fences, since there are usually height restrictions on fence heights. In my neighborhood it's 6 feet. Would they measure from the height of the deck or from the ground level of the existing fencing?
Nice fence but not sure it’s level . You can not see if a length of timber is level with a 12inch level over that size of length of timber.it’s only going to be level @ the level it has to be some what closer to the length at lest a1-3rd off it.
Nice job CONGRATS, 👍😊👏👏👏
That turned out incredible, good choice of wood and finish. Just out of curiosity tho, did the homeowner have any zoning ordinance issues as a lot of places limit fence height to 6’?
great question. we are 6' from our new ground area.
@@sarabendrick7252 Exactly how I got around a similar situation - elevated the “ground” level. Good job!
I love the finish. Could you tell us what you used? I’m trying to achieve the same finish.
Its perservawood natural transparent stain :)
Thanks 🙏
Preservawood is wonderful! Penetrating oils in general. I made a cedar Adirondack for my wife 6 years ago and finished it with preservawood. We used a light citrus cleaner every year or two and then a light retreatment with the oil. Still look brand new. Good choice.
Great vid! 🙌🏼🎶🛠⚡️😎
Great music ;)
if I had a contractor that was that pretty, I’d never run out of projects to hire her for. 😂 And she’s talented
Love this
That came out great. I have some cement retaining walls in my pool yard that I was thinking about doing this to. I’d love to see a video about how to start a wall like this that is sloped at the bottom.
keep the slats level. As they run into the slope or grade change let them die off.Dont angle them to the slope, it wont look good :)
@@sarabendrick7252 thanks for that reply Sara! My yard has a few weird dips so this is great to know!!!
Had to watch it twice, 1st time I didn't hear a word she said 😁
She said she didn’t know if they wanted it breast height or chest height.
Men of culture i see .
Boom 💥 brilliant 👏
Fence looks good but I wouldn’t trust finish nails to hold it in place for long. A siding gun with ring shanks would be the appropriate choice. Preferably stainless steel nails so the tanins don’t cause streaks.
Sound advice . Obviously the voice of experience .
thanks for your input, I'll have to look into the ring shanks
Definitely ring shank if you’re not using screws. April Wilkerson has a nice example as well.
Looks great.. one question. Why did you use nails over screws?
smaller heads, screws would be more obivious, but i might have to follow up with some screws overtime if they pull a little over time!
Great job! I could definitely watch you build all day. 😳
I would be no help at all 😳
looks amazing and fresh,i don't suppose you can remember the angles for the diamonds,thanks
yes 30 degrees :)
looks great I may have staggered the joints. well done
how long before this all fell apart? looks like you're using an 18g nailer to hold all those boards up
I like it looks good 👍
What stain did you end up using? And how did you apply it? Looks really good 👍
nice job 👍
Those wide cedar 1x12's would easily run a hundred ea. up here....Nice work, but wouldn't want to guess what just the lumber would cost...
Love ur deck and fwnce:).
I live on a corner lot. I have a slope on the side yard facing the street. The side yard/slope measures 16 ft from home and porch to street fence..
I was gonna flat the area by taking out dirt to do a sunken patio with fire pit but my wife wants a deck. I like the idea of deck cause this way don't have to dig out any dirt:)..my only concern is about the grass under..what did you do to block weeds and grass under deck??
I heard that with the mesh for weeds it creates lots of bugs. Dont know if thoese bugs will be crawling inside house. Lol
I was gonna put lattice and plant some shrubs or evergreens for privacy.
We have weed fabric with mulch and with mulch in another area. No more bugs than normal.
its so cool
Good job 👍
Buna! Frumos lucrat! Dar sti ca modelul acela este un model ce se facea in Maramures Romania si este un model traditional foarte vechi! 😁👍
Looks great but wonder how it looks from the neighbors side.
It looks great.I loved it. Where do you get western cedar wood planks?
got them at jw lumber!
@@sarabendrick7252 thank you
Did you stain the post prior to installing or did the post come prestained?
stained after, but if we had decided the colors I would of done it before :)
@@sarabendrick7252 I have heard different theories, I am about to put up a privacy fence with horizontal slots and I want to do my post a dark color and the slots a light color. I would think it would be easier to do the stain first..what do you think?
Great video
THIS IS NICE ,,, TASK WELL DONE,,,,, ONELOVE.
Thank you ::)
Very Cool!
Stodoys has a lot of designs to choose from.
