Feeling like I am over thinking. My horizontal pieces are level, and my pickets I figure I will keep a straight run until the grade requires I “step up” the next run. Should a run always be post to post? or is 5-8 pickets ok? The right side is me trying to see what it looks like with shorter runs. (i dont think i like it.)

Grade is enough that right side of pic would only be 4’ tall while left is 6’ Ish.

My adhd and lack of self esteem is over thinking this huh? Is “space from top of picket to horizontal piece consistent” a visual plus that is worth something too?

    If your terrain is irregular along a given panel, you might have to straighten it out a bit so you get level tops without ground interference at bottom anywhere.

    If you have two opposing slopes forming a ‘V’ (valley)… well, theoretically that join is possible. :)

      thanks! trying this for a bit now that i took the other parts down. bottom gap i am thinking may be a slight too big but i need to landscape around anyway too. for dogs plants etc.
