Building a fence ? Ok ..

You know the wood will eventually rot out ..

Why are you not considering steel ( pipe ) construction ?

If someone with sense asks I'll answer that question. I dont really take you on vevo. Is like if I driving down the road and a vagrant ask me why i buy a certain vehicle.

Wood rots but it takes a while if you select the correct wood. Thirty years shouldn't be a problem.

Question. Are you using round or square posts? Because if you use square posts, a miter saw along with a saw stand and fence will allow you to shape a cap. It's not fun but it can be done.

The price I listed is for teak.
Round posts
I bought gas powered post rammer for this purpose.

It's for some land in mayaro that needs to put down about 100 posts along with tiger wire in one day. Cant dig hole and pour concrete and then wait....everything hadda start at 5am and finish by 6pm in one day

Every 50 ft put an X brace on two adjacent ones.

Then how it looks doesn't matter. You can use anything.

I have strung a lot of barbed wire and cattle fencing but I nearly always used steel t-posts because they are faster to install and the wire clips on instead of using staples. I preferred using railroad ties (about 200 lbs. each) at the corner and gate posts. I have driven those into moist soil using a tractor-mounted hydraulic post driver. A chainsaw was used to cut down the base.

You may be challenged to try to finish setting a line, building corner posts, brace posts, and running the wire in one day. It's the setup that is time consuming unless you don't mind a wandering fenceline without much wire tension.
