Hi great Video I’m doing this to my garden .when I set my first it will be 2foot under ground and 6foot from floor to height 1foot gravel board and 5foot of composite fence making 6foot .i also have a slight slope .do I set the bottom post the same height as the top post .thank you

[@Mikebaldwin007]

Hi Graham, I normally set the bottom post at the same height as the top, unless there is another reason e.g gates at different sizes at the bottom etc, cheers Mike

Hi, great help going to do mine soon what do you fill the gaps under the gravel boards with after? Got quite a slope! Thanks

[@Mikebaldwin007]

Hi Shay, depending on the size of the posts, sometimes you can do a double gravel board and bury, the lower on on the top side. If the posts are not longer, then that is a bit more tricky, could involve cutting slabs and using U clips to keep the slabs in place, cheers Mike

Hello there, May I asked a question ? I’ve noticed youth started at the top of a slope, dose it matter if it’s the bottom of the slope, or the top, as I’m about to do the same job: thank you, fabulous job chaps.

[@Mikebaldwin007]

Hi James, if you can start at the bottom even better, cheers Mike

How is the post staying in place before you add the post mix?

[@Mikebaldwin007]

Hi Rob, one person can hold it and check for plumb as it is being back filled, or you put a couple of stones to hold it if you working alone.

Hi, could you explain the purpose of the string line in greater detail pls. My thought process is that it serves no purpose as your posts are running against the haunching/edgings and the posts will drop/be flush to each fence height as you work your way down, so therefore why is their need for the string? Thanks

[@Mikebaldwin007]

Hi the string line gives you the step down for each post, so they are nice and even, plus helps to keep it plumb at the top. Hope that helps, cheers Mike

[@charltonmarc]

What length post did you use?

[@Mikebaldwin007]

The posts were 8 foot, (2.4 m) 1 foot (30 cm) gravel board 5foot (1.5 m fence panels). Just under 2 feet in the ground.

Nice vid. To all those doing this for the first time, buy a dust mask. You only got one pair of lungs.

[@Mikebaldwin007]

Good point, cheers Mike

Second that and for people looking for a good re usable one check the 3m click safe its a bit costly but the fliters last for ages and ages and its comfy and better as less polluting than disposable... Dont put a price on you health building dust causes disease

[@antonshkabara3090]

Woodglut is nice for that.

[@tomnapper101]

Your level is way too small plumb up the post should be 1200 level give you a better Reading 👍
