I'm making a deer fence and hope to avoid the hassle of making and using
gates. How about a cattle gate? I would think a homemade one could be done
like a deck, but with the treated 2x4s on edge with 1.25" gaps inbetween (I
would like 1.5", but there may be a safety issue with larger gaps). My
thought is to make it simple 8' x 8' with the 2x4s mounted on an 8' x 8' set
of 2x4s spaced at 3" so I could drive my truck on it if needed.

Thanks for the comments!
