Abstract: This article focuses on household electrical metalwork. The lattice-top design makes an ideal privacy screen, but it can do much more. One can erect several panels at the corner of his yard to create a sheltered picnic area, or place them in front of a compost pile or toolshed. Common pine will have knots, and it's a good idea to seal them with a shellac-based sealer. The fence is designed to be built indoors, then assembled on-site. The box posts and sandwiched panels make construction easy. At the low end of the price spectrum is pressure-treated lumber, followed in increasing cost by pine, cedar, redwood, mahogany and teak.
