But for the most part it was just the two of us, with my husband doing most of the harder labor parts. It did take us awhile as we worked on it after our regular daily jobs and on weekends. I would think this would be tough on one person doing alone but definitely not impossible if you are a handy DIY'er! If you decide to do it yourself and have any questions please feel free to ask away. Good luck!

I was going to build a semi privacy fence, but after looking at this I'd like to do something similar (6x6 at the corners and gates and 4x4 everywhere else). The two different stains is a very nice touch. The one thing I'm not sure of is how did you guys tackle the corners with your rails being on the inside of the corners. Can you post a picture of the inside corner and/or tell me what you did?<br /><br />Reggie from S.C.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5602031349261125294.post-12854472605361646922013-04-24T13:00:57.666-05:002013-04-24T13:00:57.666-05:00Thanks for the nice comment Cristen!
