FENCES GALORE

Post by **Pete R.Oehmen** » Tue Aug 16, 2016 2:50 pm

Hello Fellow Collector's and Builders. I've been working on this project for a long time and now it has come to fruition. You can set down your Exacto knives for a while. I can now, relatively easily, cut as many style of fences I wish. You will see, in the photos, that I have cut 3 of the most common crenelation topped fences and one of the very rare fences. I have a shallow, a medium and a deep crenelation fence top (Copied from the original Japanese fences). In photo #2 you will notice that it has a piece with a crenelation on each side. That's so you can cut the fence to the desired height. I will let you cut the slots or punch the holes in the fence so you can match up the house you're repairing. These are the proto types that I just received today. I give them 10 thumbs up. I'll have to work out the prices. As a group we may want to decide what other fences are needed before I go into production.

Outstanding work. I like the idea of a double type fence. If you make it wide enough you can have two fences from it. Good idea!
I love the complex but seldom seen fence - it would be a BEAR to do by hand. Maybe the new putz builders would be interested. I seriously doubt I will ever have the need for it - unfortunately.

Just found these examples of houses using those types of fences.

The ones with the triangles looks like it would be tough to cut by hand.

I've been working on punching out the design of the triangles fence - it's not going real well. So your timing on this fence is great for my next lackie.

Hello Laurie, I'm modifying the triangle fence. I knew there were two versions, one with the solid area in between the lattice work and the other that is a continuous lattice like the picture. I'm glad you pointed that out before I sent off the final designs. Are there any other fences that I'm missing? Thanks PutzinVT
