Interesting post Chief ..... lumber these days, a guy never knows what to expect. I guess we all expect 'standard' fence boards to be 3/4 x 5 1/2 which the industry says 1x6's end up being after milling. Recently, I have noticed a lot of milled all sides fence lumber for sale is now close to 11/16 thick so they're cheating a bit, and the difference between 11/16 and 3/4 is noticeable visually. They definitely warp more, that I can tell you.
So now you are dealing with fence boards that are 5/8 thick ...... getting pretty slim unfortunately. Maybe they are what the industry calls 'resawn boards' .... ever hear of that term? A resawn board is when a mill takes a 2 inch length of lumber and cuts it in half for thickness. So they start with a 1 1/2 inch milled all sides board and slice it in half. Those end up being close to 5/8 inch in thickness since 5/8 + 5/8 + the saw blade thickness comes close to 1 1/2 inches. Sometimes they are referred to as having one smooth side and one rough cut side.
