[Shop-talk] Fence posts

[nick brearley]

I would try expanding pu foam. Used it in the past for similar needs and 
been surprised at its durability. Got the idea after seeing it used for 
fixing median safety barriers. Concrete block cast in the ground with a 
hole in, post dropped in the hole during fence fix then foamed into 
place. Got the impression it was a temporary job during road works. But 
even so it was beside live traffic so you imagine somebody signed it off 
as suitable.

Cheap and easy.

While I will replacing the rails and pickets with new wood the posts appear to be in good condition,  ie: no rot, except for the fact they are set in concrete and the posts have shrunk a bit so the posts are loose on the concrete.
