Appreciation post: Watching a crew install a fence on a hill near my house got me to rethink slope work.

I used to think grading was too much hassle, but their method of stepping the posts convinced me it's worth the extra time.

Vent: Crew split on using power augers for every job

Half my team loves them for speed, but the other half says manual digging is cheaper and less messy on rocky ground. Where do you stand on this?

DAE think corner bracing is overkill until you see a fence collapse?

I used to skip corner braces to save time, lmao. After that storm, half the fences on my street are leaning bad. What's your go-to method for bracing in windy spots?

I always heard utility locates were for big jobs, so I skipped it on a home fence. Hit a gas line and now I'm the talk of the block for all the wrong reasons.
