[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 443728, member: 3162"] I don't use wood at all. Just built two braces. 3 inch square tube, 4 feet apart, top and bottom brace with a cow panel peice welded to the face. Concreted in 4 feet deep. One side holds a gate. Generally I use 3 inch schedule 40 or better pipe (3 3/8" O.D.) This time I just happened to have the tube steel. Wood burns. I have been burned out and swore to never use another wood post. I never use 6 foot T-Posts. I try to use 7 foot and drive them deep. Building fence in limestone is tough but not as bad as rebuilding fence and chasing down the cows. [/QUOTE]
