Got some fence lumber today at Wally world. These are narrower than popsickle sticks. Scale wise they are close to 12' long, so cut in half they'll give me 6' fence boards. A tad thick, but they'll do. Approximately 2" X 6" X 6'. 75 sticks in a pack = 150 boards. Just about right for the 36 inches, total, of fencing I have to do  I plan to 'personalize' each board, grain, stain, and knotholes, and who knows what else.  |

Y' ever hear, " I don't have the patience for that"? My standard reply is usually, "If you enjoy it, patience dosen't even enter the picture". Now this,....... this might get a tad tedious. I'm making two strands of barbed wire across the top of the fence. Here's a couple of barbs tied, glued, and ready to be trimmed.  Ner' do' wells will have to deal with this wire as well as fluffy, if they want to mess around in my junk yard! |

Will have to remember not to come in over the fence. Hey Clay..... have you considered putting in an Out House? Dude, I LIVE on a 2 acre urnal. Finished the barbed wahr and took whole unit outside to see how it would look with the natural background. I'm going to get some great 'depth' as shown with the shop truck posed in front of the Garage door. Shed is in shadow and the fence and wire are not prominent at all. Would be better in full sunlight, but this is merely background for the models posed. And as hoped, I have way more angles to shoot from.  Shot alongside the left of the Garage and where Beecher Meat Co stood. Again, I can get a lot nicer depth with the model being even more in the forground than the yard mule is.  Close up of shed, fence, and wire.  Now for more junk and landscaping  ) |
