Neighbor behind me, original neighbor put in the fence long ago (20 years). The bottom of the boards are rotting, Now a new owner. I offered to split the cost of replacement fence late last year but he said lumber costs now are too high.
I don't have access. The posts and rails seem to be solid. OK.
Just resodded my yard.
So I am putting a piece across the bottom to hide the edges. There's 9 sections plus 2 short sections. All different widths. from 77 to 84 inches. I made some jigs to hold it in place at the desired height while I drill and set the screws. So I can do the rest real quickly.
1x8x8 treated pine ground contact are $12.37 apiece. Is that reasonable any more?
If he wants to split costs now I rescind my offer having spent all my time and $150 of material.
Here's the first one I did.
This section is behind the garage and I hang my aluminum ladder on it. It's my dad's old ladder I think its not much younger than me. I'm sure he had it in the late 50's.
I called 811 and had all the wires and utilities marked before my landscaper tilled the back yard. My idiot neighbor didn't call 811 and just tilled his back yard and cut the Cable TV line. My wife is pissed because she thinks she is going to miss the Bucks vs Nets tonight,
Sometimes I do this yard crap with the same precision and attention to detail as my woodworking projects. Is that normal?
