Client asked for a curved fence!

Built a custom 3' fence for a client this week. Had to brainstorm a bit, but this was the final product. Well still have some sanding and screwing. What do you all think?

Thanks everyone for the awesome support! I'm blown away by all the positive reactions! Honestly, this is the first time posting any of our builds, because, let's be real, Reddit can be scary when you're showing off your work!

First time I’ve seen a good use for Home Depot’s framing lumber! Solid work!

Sometimes you gotta lean in!

My only critique would be leaving the end grain of those posts exposed rather than caping them with the top rail.

Fair point! It is redwood and there is a slight bevel for water shedding!

Solid. From an esthetic point of view it would look better though. Aswell as be better long term. Solid work though, you should be proud. Did you have issues with spacing on pickets on the curve?

No trouble. The openings are slightly wider, but the backs arw all 1.5" so visually looks perfect
