Well I plan to start building a wood fence around my back and side yard next week. Any suggestions from the WFFers I'm using metal post and screws any suggestions on the gauge of the poles or type of screws?

No advice on the posts or screws, but make damn sure you know exactly where your boundries are and if there are any building codes or ordinances in your area about fences. Many fences have created mass chaos!

I'm kind of confused about the "metal posts" and "wood fence" bit. Seriously.

The ground here will rot at wood 4x4 in about 2 years a treated 4x4 will last about 5 years. Metal is the way to go!

Never, EVER seen anything like that in my life. We always use wooden posts on a city fence like that.

It last far longer than any other method. Any believe you've never seen them like that. Most all fences here are done this way and works great.

Same here. I don't think I've seen that type of fence that wasn't built that way around here.
