re: Best option for fence boards?

I say "catawampus" meaning severely (leaning & twisted) out of line... can apply to people as well as fences.

A big commercial fence company will usually be happy to sell you what you want even a small order and will know what it is they offer and explain it to you. In Baton Rouge Scott Fencing is such a place.

Cedar is much prettier than treated pine when new. Five years old there is not much difference especially if a shrub or two are in front.

Top boards 2x6 look great, but I've had two warp badly... always something to fix.
