Snake Rail Fencing Construction &
Estimating |
|
This traditional historic fencing is
built strictly with the 11 split rail that is not tapered or
sawn, but split with a log splitting machine similar to a
firewood splitter, except for full length logs. Hence
the real hand split appearance brings back an authentic
view of fences in the days of Abraham Lincoln. |
