Review
For the beginner or the experienced woodworker, Building Fences and Gates covers just about everything one needs to know. The book starts with some interesting history on fences, then lays out how to plan the right fence for your property and needs, choose the appropriate materials and finishes, plot and diagram the curves and slopes of your land, set and align posts, build interesting and functional gates, choose proper hardware, hang gates, and make permanent repairs. In hundreds of color photographs, a huge variety of fence styles and fence-building materials are discussed, along with the tools needed, safety tips, and instructions on how to do things right the first time and avoid sagging gates and buckling, falling-down fences. Whether your tastes run toward a Victorian picket fence, a wattle fence, a woven lattice fence, a post and board fence, or a rustic split-rail fence, you will find the plans and instructions you'll need to construct any fence you fancy! --Mark A. Hetts
