After i installed the fence how long do i have to wait to put the stain
Asked by Juanr April 24, 202010
AnswersI stain the boards before putting them up. That way all areas (including against your horizontal rail) are protected. It's also easier IF you stain using a brush rather than a sprayer.

Asked by man January 1, 20195
AnswersUsing 15 feet=180 inches, I come up to 35 boards. This will allow you a couple boards for scrap. Always a shame to be one or two short and have to return to store to finish the project.

Asked by AB January 20, 20205
AnswersNo. They are untreated and very green fence boards.You must let them dry. They will shrink 1/4 to 1/2". The photos shows boards that were butted tight together when nailed up.

I would buy these again. I purchased a full unit (416 pcs.) of these fence boards and had them delivered. This is green lumber and it does shrink slightly. But be sure and compensate by butting the boards together to minimize the gaps between them once they dry or, by letting them dry before using. After they were nailed-up and dried out, the boards measured an average of 5-1/4". Approximately 10 of the boards were unusable due to excessive warping or other major defects. This is also not unusual.However, the 5% discount for purchasing a full unit more than compensated for the culls. And I would rather have a small amount of rejects than pick through 400+ boards at the store. Creates an attractive fence.

A very good fence picket. I use these for building planters and they are very easy to work. After squaring them up the 5/8 in. thickness makes it much easier to bevel the edges for a 6 sided hexagon planter, 8 sided polygon planter & 16 sided Hexadecagon planter. I use these for a lot of projects for my landscaping where I do not want the wood to rot. I find that a bit of sanding or running them through a thickness planner will give you very nice results on the finished project. If you are using these for a fence picket you will want to make sure you have them screwed in solid as they do tend to warp once they dry out completely.
