Reply:i buy the rings from an ornamental supply company.they are 1/2" square bar stock, the pickets are 5/8. the big companies have machines and folk that spit those things out by the thousands, i think they only cost me a buck or so each.'face all times with a positive mental attitude,then and only then will you have done your best.
