Looks good, Jim, although the thickness isn't apparent in the photos. If you're concerned about it, then you should change it. One of the drawbacks of using 1" thick material in HO is that, while it looks right, it's not particularly stable - this fence at V.A. Wagner Lumber is made from styrene 1"x10" and it's warped more than a real wooden fence would have.


If you change it for 1"x4", you can always put 2"x4", painted dark grey, on the rear side for added strength, or it may be possible to simply flip the entire lattice assembly, then add the 1" material to the "new" front.

Doc that was my thought on the 1by4 too thin so just fliping the thing over and adding the 1by4 is the best option
