How would you go about getting the angle on a board for a fence? You can buy ready-made ones for 150 DKK each, need 80 pieces so maybe I could save by making them myself (?)
 
  • A wooden fence plank with an angled cut, displayed on a website for ordering fence materials.
  • Wooden fence with vertical concrete post, surrounded by autumn leaves. A hanging bird feeder and birdhouse are attached to the fence.
That profile is probably time-consuming to make by yourself without specialized machines.

But sure. Maybe you can mill the groove and then plane the angle in a surface planer if you first make a jig that locks the side you're planing at the right angle relative to the top.

If you're going to do it with handheld tools, you probably need to have a lot of time and very little money.

Damn it! Thanks for the idea!

So buying ready-made might be "cheaper" after all.
 
I could have easily fixed it with the band saw and vertical mill, but I would probably still choose to buy ready-made if I wanted to. Running sticky pressure-treated softwood through machines requires a bit of cleaning that I prefer to avoid.

Ok! Maybe a "wood workshop" can help me plane it down

What kind of company am I looking for then, I wonder?
 
You probably won't save any money if you let a snickerivetkstsd do it for you.

Mountain panel maybe?

I think they are just as uninterested as I am in dealing with treated wood, so unfortunately they will likely charge more than you save anything.

But untreated gran that we plan to paint should work then?
 
Will you see both sides of the fence? Otherwise, you'll basically get the same appearance on one side and untreated spruce with a fjällpanel that you can buy ready-made. Significantly cheaper and faster.

I can't speak for others and what they charge, but if the total price for the purchased boards is 12,000, it will be difficult to save by having someone shape spruce planks for you. Spruce is sticky, so if you can't find someone who usually works with it, cleaning will be an additional cost beyond the work and timber. Those I know who work with spruce do floors and similar and don't have the tools to "fine shape" timber.

Yes, it was a great tip with fjällpanel!
Yes, both sides will be visible, I'm considering joining two panels so it fits into the groove of the concrete post.

Spruce is sticky, so if you don't find anyone who usually works with it, cleaning will be added on top of labor and wood. Those I know who work with spruce make floors and similar and don't have tools for "fine-forming" timber.
Thanks for all the answers! 🙂
 
Paneled wood, wood glue, and far too much free time. Then it's sorted. If I absolutely wanted that profile and wanted to save some money. Otherwise, I would probably have chosen something completely different.
