RE: [RC] fencing questions- board caps - Potato

The best way to stop  horses from chewing wood is to give them a good diet of free choice minerals.
When my "free choice" dispensers get empty by accident, the wood starts to disappear.

Subject: [RC] fencing questions- board caps

We had a cross between a beaver and a horse here that ate through boards like a buzz saw. Finally ended up capping the stall doors and the fence around the paddock with DWV PVC pipe.(drain waste and vent is the thick stuff) Take 21/2" or whatever inside dimension pipe fits the board and split it on a table saw, a fine tooth plywood blade works good. Drill holes for screws, cut to length and screw it down. Be sure to counter sink the screw heads or they stick up and can chip a tooth. She did end up chewing through a treated post out of frustration but the boards are still there.
