Hi Community, need some help/advice on installing 4 posts to hand up about 100' of string lights in the backyard. The posts need to be about 8 ft above ground.Here's my plan:1) I'm thinking of getting 2 in. x 4 in. x 16 ft. Construction Common Redwood Board, chop it down to 11 ft. 2) use a post digger and go into the ground about 3 ft. 3) put in the post and use the spare wood to brace it to stand up. 4) use fast setting concrete, pour it in the post about 1 ft at a time, add water, mix. 5) Miller time.What do you guys think? The lights don't weigh much. There shouldn't be tension on the pole, the redwood is good for longevity, the common board is cost effective.What am I missing? via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/2TJF30S
