My neighbor's 'fixed' fence post is a leaning tower of duct tape
I watched him try to fix a wobbly wooden fence post for two hours, and his only tool was a whole roll of silver tape (I counted three wraps around the base). It's leaning about six inches to the left now, which matters because my dog keeps trying to squeeze through the new gap. I know because he asked to borrow my level after he was done, and just sighed. Has anyone actually had luck fixing a rotted post without just replacing it?

That "sighed after borrowing the level" bit is a whole mood... it's like people would rather fight a losing battle with the wrong tool than just admit they need the right one. I see it all the time with quick fixes that just make the real problem worse later. Sometimes you just gotta replace the post.
