This is great! So much easier than installing sections, and stronger too, especially since you're using screws. Nails don't last.

I love the over lapped boards, curious if add a 1x4 top cap running vertically would be advised to keep water out?

Very good video my friend. I build them pretty much the same, but i also put metal brackets on the stringers for added wind protection. Fence looks great

Brother, it was a fine install. The excess post above needs to be cut flush to make it truly spectacular. I'm sure you will do it ✌🏽

I understood that you marked 2.5 inches up for your bottom rail (to follow the terrain), and then you said to mark 67.5 inches up from that for your top rail. I then saw you use your level. Are you then ignoring the 67.5 mark you made and just making it level instead on the subsequent top rails (after establishing the first section). Also, is your middle rail marked so the top of the 2x4 hits the mark, or the bottom of the 2x4 hitting the mark/measurement.

Great video by the way. I appreciate you. 🙏🏾

Most people un my area want the fence to step. Not follow the grade. Almost all the videos ive seen from the US follow grade. Good video

Great video! Love the look of the fence! I live in a very windy region and am looking to build a strong fence, would you say that this is one of the better designs for durability? Thanks so much!

Great video, Any video's on a gate for this style of fence?

Is your house the yellow with the dirt yard or the blue house with the grass yard?

This was the exact kind of video I was looking for. Well done.
