Post hole digger
Notes:
- Augers are always the go-to whenever you need to dig anything quickly and efficiently. Shovels can work too, but they do not have the capability to dig such exact dimensions as an auger can.
- This is especially important for building a fence, as the posts need sturdy footing when placed in order to hold the fence. Making sure there is a tight fit will affect the integrity of your fence so you can be confident that it will remain strong and intact.

Measuring tape and levels
Notes:
- Knowing the correct dimensions and spacing of your fence will be the most important part of your construction. Without the correct measuring tools on hand, your fence may lose integrity over time and collapse. It also may not be even, resulting in many issues in the future and extra spending on material.
- Having the proper groundwork established from measuring and leveling is the difference between a fence that will last for decades and one that may leave you questioning its stability.

Saws and cutting utensils
Notes:
-
Double Check Your Work:
Sometimes, things need adjustments, no matter how precise your measurements are. You may need a brace or support in your fence that would need to be sized and cut, so having a saw on hand is important. You may even have pieces that need to be added or taken away for construction.
-
Develop Plan and Checklist:
Anytime you want to repair or build something large or small, it is always a good idea to be prepared. One way of doing this is by making a small checklist and having the necessary tools on hand. Fencing requires a great deal of preparation, so it is always a good idea to have a few extra supplies on hand whenever possible. This way, you will know the essential items you need for building a fence or anything you construct when the time comes.
