The Log Fence is a low barrier of bound logs. The tooltip says it gives limited protection from the horde.
It belongs to Carpentry and sits in the Carpentry section of the Building menu. It comes in a single version and needs no skill level. It is a primitive short barrier that also works as decoration. Zombies can climb over it, so it slows the dead rather than stopping them.
It suits an early camp with plenty of trees nearby and few tools. For a real defence, the Log Wall is the stronger choice.
How to Build Log Fence
The build takes two Log and a binding. The binding can be Rag, Rag (Dirty), Twine, Rope or Sheet Rope. No tools are listed.
No skill level is needed and the recipe is known from the start. Each section gives a little Carpentry XP. That makes it a way to start Carpentry from nothing.
Logs come from chopping down trees with an axe.
The Log Fence recipe builds the Log Fence. It needs Carpentry level 0. Building it gives 5 Carpentry XP.

How to Use Log Fence
Each section blocks a tile edge at a low height. Zombies can climb over it. It marks out a yard and channels the dead toward a gap.
A built section has fair health. Each point of the builder's skill adds more. A skilled carpenter raises a tougher fence from the same logs.
Notes
- Zombies can climb over it.
- Needs no skill and no tools.
- Gives Carpentry XP from the very first level.
- The Log Wall is the stronger log option.
