[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1715646, member: 17304"] If it works I wouldn't want to contradict, but at the fencing school put on by Sta-Tuff fence....they said double h braces aren't necessary( i had done that all my life too) if you build a correct H brace on each end...that was all you needed, and they said it doesn't really matter how long the fence is either. Also they advised against using squared posts for a brace.... like what you would find at a building supply place...they will tend to bow. That is true too, I have some square braces in a few places that have bowed a lot. They said if you need to use a wood post(they advise pipe) use a round one...Said a tree grows like a straw or a whole bunch of straws on top of each other which make it much stronger...cutting those "straws" weakens it a whole lot.
