I've built bamboo, cedar, chain link, and wire farm fences

 

If it's for privacy, like the standard vertical slat cedar. I honestly think cedar is the cheapest out there other than may chain link with privacy slats.

If you don't need privacy and get away with split rail, price drops dramatically.

 

Have you tried Cedar Products in Bremerton? I’ve worked with them for years. Always the best price for cedar. It will at least give you an idea of total cost for DIY. https://www.cedarproductsco.com/mobi/fencing.htm

 

Not sure what you mean. Clarify newer ones?

 

@SpyGoat this dude needs fencing help.

 

these i believe are newer style vs the copper ring compression

Trex? Prob expensive too id guess. How bout vinyl?

 

Oh yeah those are what I used at the last house borrowed someone’s tools to learn pex. It used black rings to clamp and I could use plastic or metal fittings.

seeing as how these press fits are reusable they work best for me. Some of my caps are temporary till I plumb the new bathroom up.

 

We had some of the stainless rings come apart at one of our locations, read flood. Less than ten years old. I avoid them, and stick to the copper compression rings. Just throwing in my 2 pennies.

 

I have both, the "newer" ones are accesible so hopefully they hold up. I hadnt heard of failures

 

Oh I hope so too. They just left a bad taste in my mouth. Could have been a bad batch, who knows.

 

Accessible is a big thing for me, I have a ranch with full basement and 100% of plumbing is between the floors. So it’s all visible. So much easier to deal with.

well, aside from the drains in one bathroom that have to be in the slab. I guess I should say all supply plumbing and 95% of drain plumbing lol.

 

Yep that would. Ill def keep it in mind to watch out for

 

I only did two mud coats and then textured this afternoon, because my nose is full of drywall boogers and I'm ready to be done with this project. I'll scrape, prime and paint tomorrow morning. Also, it turns out I need a new set of washing machine hoses. Add that tomorrow's list.

 

We just installed this PT fence in our neighbors front yard. It was about $600 total cost for 50’.

 

Thanks! I could look at pricing...........PT 1x4 and 1x6 are not regular items on the west coast. I need 6ft full blockage on one stretch .

 

These were french gothic fence pickets from HD we cut off the tops. 6’ fencing at $24/ linear foot gets expensive quick! Ouch.

 

If u go pressure treated u can use 5/4 deck boards for the uprights

I saw this style of fence a lot around Santa Fe and I really liked it :

Coyote Fence

Have you priced 5/4 deck boards recently? They're pretty salty!
