if you want to stack timber two high what do you use to stake them with?
What I have seen done is drill holes through each piece, then drive 1/2-inch rebar through them and into the ground. (The length depends on your exact soil conditions, etc.)
I use either "Re-Bar" that can be purchased at Home Depot or I also cut 1/2" (7/8 diameter) thin wall metal conduit cut in either 2 or 4 foot sections depending on how deep I want to drive into the ground to vertically support these timbers. I have stacked 5 high with no sagging or shifting sideways if I use the 5 foot length (10' / 2 = 5 feet each) Alternate the timber lengths so edges don't line up, looks nicer. I have also used spiral nails 6-9" to also nail down timbers in the middle. Use a heavy hammer with leather gloves for hand & eye protection safety glasses if you are driving steel with a hammer, metal could chip & fly off of pipe or re-bar....I have experience in this.....sigh
Home Depot sells long Garden spikes which work well, otherwise you use rebar which you can cut to length. In either case it is essential to predrill before attempting to "stake, them to each other or into the ground.
You need to get rebar (available at HD) long enough to go through the stack of wood and then at least a foot into the ground. Drill holes in the timbers slightly larger than the diameter of the rebar then pound the rebar in with a heavy mallet. Best to use wood that is rated for ground contact, otherwise it will rot out in a few years.
