Here are some pictures of my Pvc grave yard fence.

I bought 1x3 furring strips at Home depot for 1.16 each. Drilled 7/8" holes every 6 inches, and used 1/2" electrical pvc pipe which I cut into 3 equal Parts. about 3'3" each.

I also drileed 2 holes in the first and last verticl bar and inserted a 1/4" bolt to hold up the wood at a desired location. Approx 6" from the top and bottom.

I bought Fence post toppers from www.decorativeiron.com which came quick, and work and look beautiful.

I used a torch to heat the toppers and help them snuggly fit onto the 1/2" pvc. I read this in aother post online here and it worked Perfect!!

Nice job. I used the same finials.

Don't know how far along you are, but have you considered staggering the heights of your pvc poles. When I built mine, I started with a tall pole at each end then had them shrink as they approach the middle. It creates more of a gothic look to the fence.

Here's a picture:



The post at the end is simply a 2" pvc tube sitting alone on a rebar. I have one at each corner. Just an easy made and storable cemetery column.

Cheers,

Thanks to Everyone!!!. JD I like the staggered look. Wasn't sure how I wanted to go with it, this year I might leave them all even. Maybe next year I will change it up a bit. You pic looks Great.

The clean up crew is the key to the operation. Yeah very time consuming, I just ordered more toppers from Decorative Iron so I will be ready to bust out more sections . Getting my lawn in good shape. My next project is to spruce up my tomb stones with the router, we'll see how time plays out for me.
Enjoy All
