Landscaping: wattle fence

It is rather simple to create protection from natural materials the hands today. What it is necessary to be armed with is necessary tools and good master class with the right management.

Wattled protections can be used and as fence, and for zoning of the site under certain purposes; they are steady, unpretentious in the address if they at assembly have been processed previously by the antiseptics preventing damage of beams carriers are economic, esthetic and are not beaten out stylistically from overall picture of country and rural landscapes.

It is possible to make wattle fence of branches of any tree. The branches are softer, the easier to work with them. If collected material has suddenly withered and has no necessary flexibility, then it can be corrected by soaking of branches in warm water for a while of 30 minutes till 1 o'clock. Excessive moistening can ruin tree. Usually preparation of branches on fence is made in the spring or in the fall when material still has the natural softness or has already ceased to blossom.

It is necessary to remember that when weaving the lowermost, adjacent tier to the soil, branches which will be used have to be cleaned from bark that the fence did not decay, did not blossom and did not grow into the earth that can distort symmetry of future fence.

Process of weaving not really difficult. The main stage of creation of fence or other protection consists in the procedure of measurement of the site and calculation of material, necessary for construction. As branches for weaving it is possible to use any if only they were healthy and maintained some design rules, for example, the color gamma was not beaten out from one tone, at lack of resource it can be filled up at any time. Special attention needs to be paid to the bearing stakes which will hold design. 

Fence life cycle depends on quality of basic rods. In spite of the fact that similar fences already have rather short life cycle, because of low-quality material of rods, the fence can be scattered, be lop-sided or collapse already during the next crude season and not stagnate frosts. Therefore, choosing support if it wooden, it is necessary to take care of that the tree of which it will be made was healthy, and it is processed by anti-septic tank; if it is metal, then it needs to be cleaned from external dirt too and to cover with protection against rust. And further the opleteniye of rods branches "eight" follows.

Height and density of weaving is regulated already from the purposes for which the protection is built. The more densely the fence trudges, the quicker spaces between rods will be closed and will hide type of aula.
