Has anyone used these?  They are laser cut wood sections.  I really like them because they are so flexible that you can curve them.  I have two questions about them: 1) How to get a curve to take a permanent set; 2) How to make them portable - free standing.

Question #2 is required because this is for a Christmas layout that is 4" thick foam board and divided into 3 equal sections.  The assembled layout is 7.5 by 5.5ft.  Were I to permanently attach/glue the fence to the foamboard it probably would not survive one move.   I have tried Bar Mills batten fencing but don't like the look for the application I am using it for.  But the Bar Mills product is rigid wood with square fence posts.  I was able to glue a piece of hobby lumber to the bottom of the posts, making it free standing.  However, the Rusty Stumps fence posts appear to me to be too thin to glue them to a bottom strip.

When put away for the season, I remove all accessories, track, and buildings; leaving only the glued down sidewalks, streets, and led lights for the buildings. 

Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Tom, thanks.  I went to their website and checked the "how to" articles, but nothing on fencing.  I did email them with my questions, but not sure how long I'll have to wait for an answer, or even if I will get one.  The owner(s) is/are retired and operate this business part time, plus closed on weekends.

I am in the process right now working the fence issue and was hoping some on this forum have had experiences with this type of fence or similar.
