We cut a 12" x 2" board (we bought a board about 5' long) to a 3' length using a compound miter saw. Then we gave it a light sanding on the edges where we cut the board.

Then we placed a Wagner Spray Liner in the smaller paint cup, and we filled it with the stain of our choice. Then we used our Wagner FlexiO 4000 Paint Sprayer with the detail nozzle to apply one coat of outdoor clear coat stain to the cedar board.

Please remember to follow your stain’s directions. You can check out my blog for more details about this. Then we let it dry completely before proceeding.

Next, we used a 5/16" drill bit to drill holes into the flat weld steel iron about 1' apart so we ended up with 4 holes in each piece of iron. Then we set the iron on the wood board and marked where the holes were and then drilled holes into the wood using the same 5/16" drill bit.

Next, we drilled 2 holes in the angle iron using the same 5/16" drill bit. We wanted these to line up with the top and bottom exterior holes on the board, so we used the existing holes as a guide.

If you want to add a metal-safe, clear coat to your angle iron and flat iron, this is a good time to do it, but this is optional.

Then we followed the instructions on the address numbers we bought to attach them to our board.

And finally, we attached the flat iron and the angle iron to the wood board using the bolts and washers.

And your board is ready to put in the ground and display!
