How long should I let the concrete set up on fence posts?
Hello,
I just set a couple of posts in concrete today, replacing two that went bad on me. How long should I let the concrete set up before I attach the rails and pickets (cedar rails, 6'x6" pickets) to the posts? This is in Western Oregon, BTW, where temps have been in the seventies for the last week, and the ground is dry. Thanks, Jon |
