[QUOTE="novatech, post: 681667, member: 5494"] Sorry, but this is structurally unsound. You have actually cut the bearing strength in half. This process can cause the post to split down the middle. It would be much better to notch the back side of the post or staple. The horizontal member does not require anything more than 1 nail to keep it in place until tension is put on it. The less you cut up a post the longer it will last. [/QUOTE]
