I’m just full of questions lately. I have a question about the layout of a concave top picket fence I’m starting next week. I’m having the posts installed by a contractor and then I’m putting up the horizontal rails and pickets. I’d like for the layout to look like this but I’m wondering how do I layout the curve.
I’ve also got a question on how I handle the shorter sections. The majority of the posts will be 8’ center-to-center. What is the best way to handle a 5’ section or even the 3’ sections where I’ll have gates?
I've attached a couple of rough sketches showing what I have in mind. I'm just looking for suggestions on how to go about executing my plan. As well as how the short sections should be handled. I'm assuming on the short sections I want the center pickets to be the same height as the longer sections.
Thanks,
