Building a Different Retaining Wall: Part 2

One more deadman beam and I'm through with the beams. The forces will be held at bay.

Here Dan is begining the vetrical posts of the fence, since he pre-cut his pieces he can fly on the 
installation.

As you can see he is on a roll, as I am dealing with a rather large rock and I'm intent on getting it out of the way.

Our nailing pattern is toe-nailed to drive the post down and over and finishing with another beam.

We decided to put two more nails as shown to stregthen its final resting place.

Our retaining wall is finished aside from some gravel needing to be pushed around it looks good, just another day for Team Stanfield.
