I've been working on fence to define the yard and keep in the dogs, took some tractor time and resulted in a new PHD. This first picture is digging the post holes with the JD 3320.

Here the posts are being set- that little yellow thing is a level for setting posts- best $5 I've spent in a long time.

I attatched the 2X4 welded wire using this tool- it ain't cheap but it sure beat hammering in fence staples. It has a battery that sparks a aerosolized fuel cylinder to fire 16 gauge galvanized staples. It worked really well.

Here's the post, rail and wire with the post tops still running randomly.

Beautiful fence. What type of wood is that, cedar? Is it treated or painted or just bare?

It's the new treated lumber- which looks pretty nice and is left as is. I have a few of the posts that have been in the ground for other reasons and it seems to hold up pretty well. The stuff is extra green- which makes it heavy but hopefully heavy duty as well.

Nice! Top rail looks nice and smooth, even on the slope.

My forearms and wrists would've killed for that automatic staple gun a couple days ago. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Very nice fence. What size auger did you use for the post holes? I have not used a PHD before but am considering one for my own project. Did you set the posts in concrete?
