Seems like the horizontal fencing is a different wood than the verticle. Trying to decide which way to go. Thoughts ?

Can you post pics of what you mean?

Usually horizontal are thicker board, mainly because of the lack of support ocer distance, but if you have a pic of what you want you might get more helpful info.

I don’t have any experience with horizontal but board on board cedar looks really good imo

One of my aunts had a horizontal fence on her property years ago---long before wood got to crazy costs like it is today.

To build that same fence today would cost a small fortune.

I don't remember the distances between the large wooden posts sunk in the ground that the fence boards were nailed to. However, I do remember the horizontal boards being 2 x 10's or better with 45 degree angled cuts along the top and bottom edges so the boards could be placed in a way that they didn't touch when stacked, but also didn't allow for people to see inside the yard through the small cracks.
