Log steps stopper stake length
Posted: Wed Sep 02, 2020 7:12 am
Am planning building some simple log steps, the kind you see on nature trails, this kind of style:
I haven't been able to find any clear instructions for making these and the one thing I'd really like to know is how long the vertical support stakes should be. My garden is very steep so was thinking it would have to be long enough to have around 75% of the stake below the ground and 25% above, but wanted to get confirmation. Does anyone have any experience of making these kind of steps?
Would greatly appreciate any help anyone is able to give me.
