HI

I have a fence post in a fetheredge fence with arris rails. The post has rotted just above ground and moves with the wind. It is effectively being supported by the two adjacent fend posts.

I have included a picture.

I think I'll need some cutting device to cut the arris rails from the fence post so I can take down the 2 adjacent fence panels before removing the fence post and replacing it.

This approach would require 4 replacement arris rails to be fitted into the tenon joints present on the adjacent fence post although.

I don't have the tools to make a tenon joint in the replacement fence post I have purchased. What tools would I require to do this?

I see that I can use arris rail brackets to nail the arris rails to the fence posts

If you could get good access to the base of the post then you could just dig out and drop in a concrete spur and bolt it to the existing wooden post, rather than having to remake the adjacent sections.
