          Beautiful in the end
          Came wet but after laying out in grid pattern and drying for two weeks in garage they were ready to stain. There are some quality defects but once it’s painted you don’t notice. Hand to hand sand rough edges but really pleased with result

          Hideous. Rough. Going Back. Too Rough to Paint.
          I might not have expected super smooth pickets. But in my wildest worst nightmare I never expected this crap. This is going back to the store. After I waited over a month to receive them. So extremely disappointed.

            Pick your pickets with care. Lesson learned. Dont buy wet pickets. If they feel heavy, they are wet. I bought these just for the cedar planks to make a custom fence. Custom fence sections would be 6ft wide by 3 ft high at the highest point containing 11 pickets per section. (To add more work, she wanted the pickets "scalloped" on the fence, not straight across.) Pickets were wet so I had to dry them out. First thing I did was rip them into 2.9" wide planks to get the wood ready to build my custom fence. I could feel drops of water on my face as I ripped off one side of the the pickets with my table saw. I stacked them in evenly spaced layers on the leftover wood trims which were 1/4 thick. This gave the pickets air. The top layer of pickets I had to turn twice per day to make sure they dried evenly. I still lost a few because they warped as they dried out. When they finally dried, I was able to put 60 degree points on them, cut to length, and paint them. I re-stacked them to let the paint dry. Fence is looking good but it was a lot of work to save wet pickets.

              First, it's weird that both the 1" and the 5/8" thick pickets are spec'd as having an actual thickness of .625". I ordered the 1", and they were mostly .625" with a 3/4" or two in there. Second, they're really rough with a high percentage that are chipped/cracked (predictable) but my order also showed up soaking wet, which I couldn't tell (they were inside cardboard boxes, which were just a little damp) so when I opened them a day later, several were already moldy. Really delightful.

                Several of the pickets varied significantly in thickness, and it was necessary to repair several splits on several of the pickets in each box. Two pickets per box had a series of intended squares, in a checker-board fashion, which needed to be sanded out. ON average, 2 pickets were discarded because of the above factors, as well as excessive not holes. I was glad redwood was avail. Dean

                The item did not match the description. The Pickets were suppose to be 5/8" thk, and they were not close, more like 1/2" thk. and poor quality all around. I had to return 20% of the pickets due to cracks, excess bark, large knots etc.
