    wooden fencing
    I have a 10 foot section to be fenced. What spacing for the 4x4 post would be okay
    to support the 2x 4 stringers ?

    We usually use 8 ft but here is a solution for 10'. Set the end posts where you want, use fence cleats to hold the 2X4 with the 3 1/2 " side out. Under the middle of the bottom 2X4, notch and cleat a small piece of 4X4 and set that in the ground about 1 ft. Almost invisible and supports well. I assume you will use 1X6 PT fence boards? I wish I knew how to draw and insert a picture!
