Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 10m Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 20/03/14 01:24 AM Share Posted 20/03/14 01:24 AM Just to play devil advocate freeze.. not sure how much fence they put up but 2k does seem mighty cheap..I'm no expert on fences.. But I'm good with wood (heh heh heh).. Nails popping out happens when the timber swells and shrinks due to heat/moisture..The big cracks down the palings would of happened for the same reason (Natural fault in wood).Applying a bit of technical thinking here:A) Cheap woodB) Incorrectly treated or not treated at allC) Even though people say it's not necessary (and it's not if you use a decent grade of treated material), should should always seal something like that.. Even if it's just with a bit of decking oil or something..I'd almost place money on getting some serious rain not long after that fence was installed..Though I will add that there is some fuggin shoddy workmanship going on there..

freeze_dk I am dissatisfied with my current employment situation Donating Members 8,610 Member For: 18y 8m 4d Gender: Male Posted 20/03/14 01:28 AM Share Posted 20/03/14 01:28 AM My dog doesn't eat wood. He just puts his head through it lolGot home the other day after a storm, went to the back yard and he didn't come running to me. Heard the other dog crying so I went to see and she was stuck at the back of the house and saturated. Called my dog and nothing. Then I heard a collar rattle so I looked over into the paddock and there was another dog there looking at me. Didn't really care about it at the time so as I went to jump the side gate I made to stop him going over the side of the house I looked over into the neighbors house and he's there trying to jump back over. Our house is high and the laundry door has stairs going up to it then back down, the fence is about 1m from the top. He jumped that and its a 1600mm drop. Got him back and he was wet and covered in mud. Wiped his face down and it was covered in blood. The dog must have attacked him when he first got over. Had 8 puncher wounds over his face and 4 under his armpit.

Just don't let the kids near it for a week or so! 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44361-the-off-topic-thread/page/6849/#findComment-1460935 Share on other sites More sharing options...
