Fence railings

Feeling all impressed with myself yesterday.
Got the top run of railings in place with ease and they are even level!

Original plan was to pick one end and then use a string to mark the level on the other posts but then i realized that the 3rd post was clearly shorter than all the others. So, i just started there. Cut the boards one at a time and installed them.

I'll need to cut off the excess height on some of the posts but no biggie.

The only issue is that i wanted to paint this side of the house first since the fence gets in the way of the ladder. Fortunately the railings are only held in place by one screw on each end so easy to remove.

Also sealed (waterproofed) all the posts and drilled the bolt holes.
