Great finished product. Very common in Texas for ranchers and after all of the limestone that I dug up for the bathroom, I think that this would be a great idea for before you begin a project or clear an area so that you've got somewhere to put them. The other perk is that they're a great place for snakes/lizards/insects to take shelter.

I had no idea, just googled that. I would think that you could use galvanized fencing as well, though it may need more cross ties.

Wonder how well that would work as a retaining wall for a creek bank?  (Hi guys!)
