Abstract

This complete how-to manual covers wooden fences and gates from concept to completion. First, the book helps the reader plan -- decide the purpose of the fence, adapt to the actual site, and select an appropriate fence style and gate. Then comes construction: from selecting the wood and the hardware to setting the posts, the author leads step by step (with line drawings and photos) through all phases of the building process. Includes a gorgeous color gallery of fences in all styles.
