Oz reference photos: split rail fence

For the fence bordering the cornfield in both Kansas and Oz, I want an old style split-rail fence that uses crossed posts instead of the upright posts we see in common use now.

My reasons are purely practical: the crossed posts will give a wider footprint and make the fence more stable as a free standing unit.


This is more or less the effect I'm trying to achieve. For our purposes, we only need the top and middle rail.








This one isn't bad: it's a little taller than I want, but it shows how the top and bottom rail relate to the crossed posts.
