Great fence. Awesome content.

Ian, thank you! I try to do my best to only post interesting/helpful stuff. I don’t alway succeed, but I try!

Love it, I've just finished my fence and was thinking about staining my posts a different colour and seeing yours has done it for me. The top board is also a good idea. It makes the fence more different from the standard fences . I like it 😊, as always ❤️ from Scotland.

Lewis, thank you! We had the posts dark brown before and wanted to change it up. I really like the contrast. The top cap board also seems to help keep the fence boards from warping in and out at the top. As always, I appreciate the feedback and you taking the time to comment :) sounds like you need to get a channel going, you have a lot of projects as well!

@@PottersWork I am just about finished all my work, been at it since 2016 it's just some finishing touches like your fence. I do a lot of dark grey or slate grey as you so rightly pointed out the contrast brings out the shape and colour of projects.

[@PottersWork]

We really like gray and slate colors as well! If you ever do any vids of your projects I would like to see them! I like seeing what other people have done for future inspiration at our home. Especially interested since you are in Scotland!

What color code/manufacturer for the post stain?

[@PottersWork]

Lloyd, it’s Cabot acrylic solid color deck stain...I can’t remember the color name but it is dark charcoal and there weren’t a ton of color variations. You have it mixed in the store (at our local Menards). Hope that’s helpful!

Great fence but treated pickets a Garbo from personal experience 🤮 they always end up bow in or out

[@PottersWork]

I've always had good luck with the treated pickets...I always hand pick the driest ones though. I actually had one of my 6x6 posts bow on me a little I noticed the other day though. I've had that with 4x4's many times, but never a 6x6. I would have loved to use cedar, but it would have tripled the cost and wasn't in my budget.
