Other side of hayshed fence

A few days ago I posted a few photos of recent fence partial rebuild.  Here are photos of the front side of the fence.



Some of the rocks I dug up when I dug a hole for the railroad tie post.

I like the use of RR ties as posts... what are the rails made of?

Down the road there was a builder who did custom, fancy and nice wood projects for people. He would get logs for his projects and would then 'square' the logs. He would toss these pieces on his burn pile. I saw them and got permission to rescue them. As you can see I had an idea of how I could use them. A new owner of the business does something different and doesn't end up with 'scraps' like this or a burn pile. Too bad as I could have made more fences like this. Another neighbor has a small sawmill and I've gotten a handful of 'rails' when he occasionally squares logs. They are nice, but not as nice as the 'rails' I got from the other guy.
