A friend wants to build a fence using round, 6" diam cedar posts and 1"
x 6" pine or spruce boards.

He wants to cut slots through the center of the posts (3 slots) that are
just large enough to slide the boards through. There are going to be
lots of posts - maybe 100 or more.

How would you go about forming these slots? What sort of tool?

BTW--Horses are not right bright. If you use barbed wire expect a lot of vet
bills for patching up rips and tears. Three or four hot wires on metal "T"
posts with insulators is the common fence around here with heavily anchored
corners.. Some people put a white strapping tape about 1 " wide above the top
wire running the full length of the fence.. Horses and people see the tape a
lot easier and learn to respect the fence.
