Fencing
Not the sword fighting type I'm afraid but just a boring thread about my back garden fencing which I'm building.
Had a quote from a guy for £300 to fence just the back part of my garden with panels. I decided to have a crack myself as the materials totalled up to £100 with proper fencing stuff (arris rails and feather edge).
If I do a good job of it, Ill have a go at doing the side of my garden too. But judging by my swollen left hand (hammer slipped when I was chiseling) I may not be doing this anytime soon.

Don't you have to hang your arm up in a weird way in the sport of fencing?
*imagines Mech in weird stance trying to pound in a fence post with a sword*
Hmm...

Depends on the color, Corran. Did you paint it white or maroon?

I'd be happy to do your fencing Catch 22, just as long as I'm kept with a supply of free beer during the work....oh and you could sort out all my computer problems at the same time.
My knuckle has gone a lighter shade of blue now, still it looks better than it did.
Dim my dear, the arris rails I'm using are 3" square posts cut diagonally down the length to make a triangular cross member. When screwed to the uprights they allow water to drain off rather than using square cross members which would collect water/leaves etc.
