I've wanted to put up a fence (and gate) for quite a while, but I've been put-off by the "pick two" aspect of building a "100 year fence".

Last night I stumbled on this video: youtube.com/watch?v=yE-t86b07yM

The posts are oiled cast concrete. One change I'll make is using fiberglass rebar instead of metal.

This satisfies "good" and "cheap", but it will take quite some time to cast the near 200 posts I need. I'll have to make a half dozen forms if I want to to be done within the year.

@eriner This is similar to what I’ve had in mind for my place. We have to install full round 3 rail fence, and even though it looks good for the first 5-10 years, it starts to look pretty bad after that.
