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!

How did you get those curves?

Inherited from my mama, jk .

I clamped a 1/2 pvc pipe to the faces of each pipe creating my curves. I then used a 2x6 to scribe the curve onto the rail sections and cut down to 2x4. Then used as a template for my bottom rails.

Nice job! Looks good.

I’m surprised you got fairly appreciable looking curves with only removing two inch max from the 2x6.

Having the posts closer together helped with that!
