Kent Blair constructs a 42-inch tall pressure-treated pine fence, recommending outdoor woodworking projects as an entry point for beginners to learn tool use and measurement.Watch To ensure structural consistency, he sets posts approximately two feet deep in clay soil and spaces them nominally eight feet apart. Because post spacing often varies due to ground conditions or existing structures, he uses 10-foot 2x4s for backer rails to accommodate irregular gaps, cutting each rail to the specific measured length between posts. He aligns the fence face using a string line and maintains a small gap between the pickets and the ground to prevent rot and allow for weed trimmer access. For fasteners, he prefers star-drive, self-piloting deck screws that countersink into the wood, noting that these hold up well over time compared to lower-quality stainless steel alternatives. Essential tools for the project include a drill, circular saw, level, and a FastCap 16-foot tape measure.
