Making the rebar "staples"386 viewsLooking at the site, I decided to put rebar on the outside of the wood perimeter. To give it a custom, finishing touch, I decided to weld the two pins together and thus give it a stapled look. So I fired up the air compressor and dragged out my MIG welder (both Craftsman from Sears...very nice!). After rebar is nailed into the earth and flush with the top of the lumber, cut top portion of rebar to length. I kept the length short so the top piece only covered half of the top of the pin. This gave an "L" profile, allowing plenty of space for placing a good welding bead. Wire-wheel the ends clean and a spot for the MIG welding clamp to make good electrical contact.
