    Default Make timber screen with different lengths of timber?

    I had some 70 x 19 mm pencil round mixed hardwood decking timber delivered today and I didn't specify the length so they sent me 45m worth of odd, short lengths pieces (between 1m to 2.5m).

    I'm making a timber screen (to hide the rubbish bins) that is 1.35m high and 2.9m long. I have posts about every 0.96m. What can I do with odd lengths of timber?

    Would it be better to just get some more (at a supplier who has 3m lengths)?

    I guess you are placing them vertical,so the odd lenghts would be a problem.
    I think if you can get lenghts that cut down to the size you need without much waste would be the way to go.
    If you were laying a deck those odd lenghts would be OK
