[TheForge] Gate question

        Bob,  Most places want 6" center to center which leaves a 5" space
in 1/2" materials being used as pickets.  Checking with your building
inspector will tell you the real story as to what you can do and can't as
he'll be checking the item for the occupancy permit and enforcing those
regulations.
