All sides, tops, bottoms and faces of my fence pickets have been treated with the clear wood preservative for one panel on the corner I'm working on and laid out on a tarp drying.

The brackets are in place with the bottom cross member attached. Since the plank is 8' but the expanse is only about 7', the end was cut off and I'll use it to measure against the other two cross-members. The "good" side will go toward my yard on one side and toward the street facing the street. I have a couple of extra pickets for putting up across the intersections to conceal "seams."

I quit when the mosquitoes came out.
